Lead Designer – Client Services, Strategic Capital

A day in the life

We believe great design does more than look beautiful. It creates clarity, builds confidence and helps ideas land. Strategic Capital's Client Services team is responsible for how one of the world's largest private real estate investment platforms communicates with investors. Through presentations, reports, fundraising materials, events and digital communications, we help tell the story of Prologis' global business and the trends shaping logistics real estate.

We're looking for a Lead Designer to own and evolve Strategic Capital's visual communication ecosystem. This is a highly hands-on role for someone who still loves designing. While you'll help establish design standards, presentation systems and creative best practices, you'll spend the majority of your time creating exceptional work. Think less creative director and more senior designer with broad ownership: someone who enjoys making great work while helping raise the bar for the team.

You'll partner closely with Prologis Research, Fund Management, Sustainability, Sales, Global Marketing, Legal and Compliance, and our Information Graphics Editor to ensure every communication is strategically aligned, visually exceptional and unmistakably Prologis. We are equally interested in preserving craftsmanship and exploring innovation. This role will help shape where emerging technologies, including AI and automation, can improve efficiency and where thoughtful human creativity continues to make the greatest difference.

• Provide light video editing and production support, including updates to existing video assets, lower thirds, animated logos and recurring content updates
• Support project coordination and creative workflows, helping manage timelines, assets and production across multiple concurrent projects
