Senior 3D Motion Designer

We have an amazing opportunity for an established Senior 3D Artist/Motion Designer to join our Move Studio, the in-house production team at TMW Unlimited, made up of editors, photographers, animators, and producers. Together, we create ideas that move people with award-winning visual storytelling. You will have exceptional creative and technical ability, a passion for design and animation, and the experience to lead high-quality projects from pitch to delivery.

You’ll play a key role in delivering standout motion and 3D work across a wide range of branded content — from broadcast to digital activations and social-first creative. As a Senior 3D Artist / Motion Designer, you’ll bring passion and enthusiasm to all things motion design and animation, as well as being someone who is highly collaborative with our internal teams.

Ideally you will have significant experience in a similar Senior 3D/Motion design role within a creative agency, production studio or post house, with a standout portfolio/showreel. Expert knowledge of Cinema 4D and a deep understanding of rendering pipelines using Redshift, V-Ray and Octane. Working knowledge of Unreal Engine is a strong advantage. Proficiency in the Adobe Creative Suite, particularly After Effects and Premiere Pro.

At TMW Unlimited we offer Hybrid working, which for us is a blend of working remotely and in the London office. It’s all about choosing the best place to be for you, your team, your manager and the business on any given working day.
