The role.
A 2D motion designer with mixed experience working agency side, in-house or in production studios.
We are looking for a 2D motion designer (3D and interactive capabilities would be a bonus) with a solid background in working from conception to delivery. You will be ambitious and ready to push your creativity, delivering solid client-facing work. Experience producing online learning would be a great advantage, as would experience using online tools such as Articulate, Vyonder, and LMS. However, these tools can all be taught. We are particularly focused on inquisitive designers with an eye for composition, timing, typography, and attention to detail.
You will form an integral part of the design and production studio. We have great ambitions as a studio and require team players with a shared vision.
This is an office-based role. Studio time is a key element in the design process - we are on Regent Street, with Soho and all the delights it holds on our doorstep. We expect you to make the most of these prestigious offices, and our wonderful surroundings are important for allowing creativity to thrive. Working together enables us to approach new ideas creatively.
Salary £30 - 35k.
