Motion Designer

We’re looking for a talented Motion Designer to join our integrated design team, working across high-profile global brands including Renault, Vodafone, Fosters, Cathay Pacific, Tork, and more. This role is predominantly motion-focused, but sits within a highly collaborative studio where work frequently moves between designers. You’ll be confident picking up existing assets, layouts, and visual systems and translating them into compelling motion — while understanding how your work lives across print and digital touchpoints. You’ll be comfortable working at pace, responding to evolving briefs, and maintaining a high level of craft under pressure.

Responsibilities

• Design and produce high-quality motion graphics across social, digital, DOOH, brand films, presentations and more
• Translate static design assets into engaging motion while maintaining brand consistency
• Collaborate closely with integrated designers, creatives, art directors, and producers
• Deliver work efficiently across fast-moving, high-pressure projects
• Adapt and version content across multiple formats and platforms

Qualifications

• Experience in a creative agency, studio, or equivalent environment
• Strong proficiency in Adobe After Effects
• Excellent understanding of motion design fundamentals: timing, pacing, typography, transitions, and compositing
• Experience working on fast-turnaround, high-pressure projects
• Confidence picking up and working with existing assets and brand systems
• Solid understanding of print and digital design workflows

Desirable / Nice to Have

• Working knowledge of Cinema 4D and/or Blender
• Basic awareness of AI tools in a creative or production context (nice to have, not essential)
• Experience working on large, established brands
• An interest in emerging motion and digital trends
