What We Expect

This is a delivery role. You will be given clear briefs and strong art direction. Your job is to execute them to an exceptional standard. You should be someone who takes pride in output, takes ownership of your workload, and holds yourself to a high bar without needing to be managed at that level.

We also expect you to be curious. AI is not optional here; it is part of how the team works. We are actively evolving our workflows and want someone who sees that as an opportunity, not a constraint.

You will be part of a collaborative, fast-moving team. That means being a good communicator, being proactive when you see problems, and being generous with your expertise, particularly in motion and animation, where you will have an opportunity to genuinely raise the team's capability.
