Motion Graphic Designer in Wakefield

Bordeaux & Burgundy, headquartered in New York, is a B2B SaaS, content-first marketing firm. We work with the world's most ambitious SaaS and technology brands. Building GTM engines, we help our clients clarify their positioning, learn their audience and generate demand through content marketing and channel distribution.

To date, we've driven over $10bn in acquisitions, $2bn+ in pipeline and thousands of new customers for our client brands across the FinServ, Healthcare Tech, and AI industries. Where we stand apart from a sector increasingly dominated by volume promises and short-term tactics, is our belief that an agency partner develops B2B growth through long-term consistency – not in 5-step packages or false guarantees.

This is a motion-first design role. While you will have a foundation in static design, the vast majority of your deliverables – approximately 90% – will be spent on motion and video work. This is not a generalist design role with occasional animation; it is a dedicated motion position for someone whose primary craft is creating short and long-form video content for our B2B clients.

You will produce a wide range of motion and video content for B2B SaaS clients: short-form LinkedIn advertising videos (typically 15–30 seconds), longer-form YouTube content (60 seconds and beyond), product demo videos, animated social content, footage editing and motion-led illustration. You will work closely with our Creative Lead, content strategists, and GTM specialists to ensure every piece of motion content serves a clear commercial purpose and lands with impact across the channels it’s built for.

This role spans the full motion spectrum – from concept and storyboard through to edit, animation, and final delivery. You will be comfortable working with raw footage, motion graphics, illustration-led animation, and screen capture, shaping each into polished, platform-ready content.

In return, you will work on some of the most sophisticated B2B SaaS GTM programmes in the market today, producing motion content that defines how category-leading technology brands show up on video.

Location and Working Pattern

• Remote role
• Must be based in the UK
• Occasional in-person working at our (future) Manchester office
• Occasional client meetings (UK, with occasional international travel)

Before You Apply

This role is not for you, if any of these ring true:

• You are not based in, or within commutable distance of, Greater Manchester
• Motion design is a secondary skill rather than your primary discipline
• Your portfolio is predominantly static design – we need to see strong, varied motion work
• You have not produced short and long form video content designed for performance marketing / advertising initiatives
• You are uncomfortable working with tight timelines, iterating quickly, and producing work across multiple client brands
• You find fast-paced agency environments stressful rather than motivating

Working at Bordeaux & Burgundy

Honesty, integrity, logic and humour. If you value these in your workplace, you’ll fit in perfectly. We take marketing very seriously – and the quality of service our clients receive, even more so. But we don’t take ourselves seriously. You’ll find no egos here.

• Produce motion and video content across B2B SaaS client accounts, spanning short-form ads through to long-form video
• Create LinkedIn advertising videos (15–30 seconds) optimised for performance in a B2B feed environment

• Design and animate motion graphics, illustration-led sequences, and screen capture walkthroughs
• Edit raw footage into polished, on-brand video content that serves clear GTM objectives
• Develop storyboards and motion concepts in collaboration with the Creative Lead and content teams
• Maintain visual consistency and brand standards across all motion outputs
• Deliver assets in the correct formats and specifications for each platform
• Support static design output where required, contributing to campaigns alongside the wider creative team

• Confident across the full motion production pipeline: concept, storyboard, animation, footage editing, and final delivery
• Experience with motion graphics, illustration-led animation, product demos, and video editing
• Solid foundation in static graphic design, enabling confident contribution to wider campaign assets
• Strong understanding of how video performs across B2B digital channels
• Ability to work across multiple client brands, adapting style and tone accordingly
• High attention to detail and a genuine commitment to craft
• B2B or SaaS experience is advantageous; FinTech, AI, or Cybersecurity exposure a further plus

• After Effects (essential)
• Premiere Pro (essential)
• Figma
• Illustrator or similar vector tools
• Lottie or similar for lightweight web animation (advantageous)
• Adobe Creative Suite broadly
