While strong creative skills are essential, this role has a strong technical focus. A deep understanding of Adobe After Effects, particularly building files to support templating, is key.

• Communicating clearly with stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle

Qualifications and Experience

• Strong working knowledge of Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator
• A good understanding of production workflows and encoding for multiple platforms
• Ability to turn around high-quality video and motion content quickly without compromising quality
