Event Layout

Shape the HYROX experience. One venue at a time.

HYROX is the world's fastest-growing fitness race series — and we're looking for someone who wants to design the physical heartbeat of our global events.

As our (Junior) Event Layout Designer (m/w/d), you won't just create floorplans.

You will define how tens of thousands of athletes and spectators experience HYROX across continents, cultures and venue types.

You'll combine technical design, spatial intelligence and operational thinking to craft scalable, high-impact layouts that our production teams bring to life worldwide.

CORE DEFINITION

• Design the HYROX World: Create and optimize global event floorplans in AutoCAD, ensuring every meter of space supports flow, safety, and the HYROX atmosphere.
• Global Impact: Your layouts will be executed in venues from Hamburg to Hong Kong.
  
  You will directly influence the consistency and quality of the HYROX experience everywhere.
• Ownership From Day One: This is not just a drafting role — you will lead the entire technical layout process, set standards, and develop scalable systems for hundreds of events per year.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Operations, Commercial, Branding, Audio-Visual, and Logistics teams to translate their needs into clear, buildable technical drawings.

YOUR KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Lead the design and optimization of global event floorplans using AutoCAD.
• Build and refine 2D venue models to communicate layouts effectively.
• Analyze and adapt layouts for athlete flow, capacity optimization, and operational safety.
• Collaborate cross-functionally (Operations, Commercial, Branding, Audio-Visual, Logistics) to translate each event's needs into technical drawings.
• Conduct on-site venue measurements and assessments, updating digital drawings accordingly.
• Develop and maintain global layout templates, CAD block libraries, and scaling standards.
• Support capacity modeling and spatial data management across multiple venue types.
• Ensure layout designs are delivered on time, are operationally feasible, and comply with local regulations and safety guidelines

YOUR PROFILE

• 3–5 years of experience in CAD-based layout or technical design — ideally in live events, exhibitions, or venue planning (less experience may be considered for a Junior role).
• Advanced proficiency in AutoCAD (2D essential, 3D a plus); Vectorworks, SketchUp, or Rhino beneficial.
• Deep understanding of spatial layout, event circulation, and build feasibility.
• Strong visual and technical communication skills — can present layouts clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
• Comfortable managing multiple concurrent projects and tight turnaround times.
• Fluent in English; German a plus.
• Passion for sport, design, and live event experiences.

WHAT WE OFFER

• The opportunity to take on responsibility in a fast-growing, international company with a strong sports DNA.
• Flat hierarchies, quick decision-making processes, and plenty of room for your ideas.
• A motivated, international team with a genuine passion for sports and events.
• A healthy work-life balance thanks to flexible, trust-based working hours.
• A modern office in a top location – right in Hamburg Altona with excellent transport connections.
• 28 vacation days to recharge and reset.
• A Wellpass membership and discounted lunch options in-house.
• Your Deutschlandticket is fully covered by us – nationwide mobility, 100% on us.
• Employee discounts in our HYROX stores.
