About This Role
Motion designers create exceptional products that people love. This mid-level Motion Designer role drives fast-paced motion output, independently executing briefs within an established motion language. The position is production-focused and offers a well-structured environment with defined systems, organized files, and clear review gates for progression.
Responsibilities
- Apply the motion language: Bring established concepts to life, ensuring brand consistency and high execution quality across all touchpoints
- Support main campaigns: Partner with the wider creative team to execute major campaigns on track
- Produce social media content: Create social media assets at a steady, reliable pace
- Adapt and localize: Re-master deliverables across formats and placements, and localize animations for global markets
- Navigate the review process: Take every deliverable through the craft review gate and turn review notes around efficiently
- Maintain system standards: Work inside the established file organization, naming conventions, and motion systems from day one
- Work primarily in After Effects, use Cinema 4D within the Redshift render pipeline for 3D, and rely on Figma for product and design handoffs
Requirements
- Solid animation fundamentals: Timing, easing, weight, follow-through
- Core software: Advanced proficiency in After Effects, with a solid working knowledge of Cinema 4D and Redshift
- Supporting toolkit:
- Premiere Pro for sound design passes and rough cuts
- Illustrator and Photoshop for asset preparation and cleanup
- Figma knowledge for working with product and design handoffs
- Design fundamentals: Strong typography, color, and composition skills to ensure resizes and localizations maintain full design integrity
- Organized handoff habits: Clean project files, consistent naming, and strict versioning, so any teammate can open your scene and seamlessly continue the work
- Receiving feedback well: The role sits behind a craft review gate, so iterating quickly and without friction matters as much as raw skill
Nice to have:
- Emerging motion tools: Rive, Cavalry, or Spline: interactive and procedural motion tools that extend the range of what the team can deliver
- Effective problem-solving with current LLMs: writing custom After Effects expressions and scripts, debugging, generating starting points, and unblocking technical questions independently
- Strong habits for scene and render optimization
Benefits
- Challenges that will help you grow and realise your potential
- Opportunity to make a big impact
- Work with smart, spirited, helpful, high-performing colleagues with a common goal
