THE ROLE: DIGITAL DESIGNER & ANIMATOR

A designer & animator who has an infectious energy and passion for what they do. The ideal candidate will be multi-skilled – part designer, part animator, part editor. They will be as strong on design as they are on motion – boasting beautiful, engaging and relevant work in their own portfolio.

They will be designing and animating for digital, ATL, and social briefs, from concept to through to production and delivery, for multi-channel campaigns and global toolkits across all clients.

They’ll be an imaginative all-rounder who’s eager to make an impact. The successful candidate has a real opportunity to own everything that moves – interaction design, thumb-stopping content, engaging edits, and slick animated prototypes for digital media.

We are looking for an individual with a solution-focused attitude and drive to get things done. The ideal candidate is an adept problem-solver who can help advise on all things motion – both technically and creatively, whilst conceptualizing innovative ideas and elevating everything that moves.

The candidate should be highly collaborative as well as comfortable working in a fast-paced
environment. They will report directly to the Digital Design Director and will work closely with all of our wonderfully talented creative and design department.
