Senior Brand & Creative Motion Designer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United Kingdom.

📋 Description

• Develop the team's motion language: Establish and refine a coherent, adaptable motion framework (principles, pacing, transitions, typography in motion, templates) that ensures the brand is instantly recognizable across all channels.

• Produce exceptional motion work from start to finish: Manage motion design from initial concept to final output across campaigns, social media, web, product highlights, events, and internal communications.

• Craft compelling narratives: Convert intricate concepts (such as energy, markets, and products) into motion stories that are both emotionally impactful and easily comprehensible.

• Uphold a high standard for craftsmanship and consistency: Ensure a consistently high quality across all deliverables, enhancing quality through reusable components, templates, and clear creative direction.

• Function with IC3 execution: Independently organize and deliver non-routine tasks, oversee diverse projects with full responsibility, and consistently meet deadlines to an exceptional standard — comfortable navigating ambiguity and taking calculated risks.

• Collaborate across departments: Work closely with Brand, Product, Growth, and Content teams to ensure that motion work aligns with business objectives (such as awareness, understanding, and adoption).

⛳️ Requirements

• Experience in fast-paced environments: Background in startups, scale-ups, or similar settings where rapid pace and shifting priorities are the norm, while maintaining a high quality standard.

• Proficiency in After Effects + modern toolchain: High skill level in AE along with complementary tools (Cinema 4D/Blender is a plus but not mandatory).
