Who We Are Looking For
We are looking for a highly creative, self-driven Motion Designer who thrives in a fast-paced, content-rich environment. The ideal candidate understands how to craft scene-based animations, bring ideas to life through motion, and elevate content with intention and purpose—not just aesthetics. You’ll be collaborating on everything from social media reels to educational explainers, supporting storytelling through animation, and contributing meaningfully to the creative direction. This role is perfect for someone who’s not just waiting for a task list, but is ready to ideate, own projects, and help shape visual narratives from the ground up.
Responsibilities
Create social-first video content, especially Reels and short-form videos, optimized for engagement, reach, and conversion. Design and animate scene-based, cartoon-style explainer videos, bringing static ideas and illustrations to life. Support with long-form video editing (e.g., YouTube videos, interviews), adding overlays, transitions, animations, and removing filler content to improve pacing and flow. Animate educational content, particularly around anatomy and facial development, ensuring complex topics are visually digestible and engaging. Collaborate with the creative team on content strategy and ideation, helping to shape new content formats and animation styles. Work with vector files and static design elements to produce polished and branded animations. Execute strong post-production work, enhancing raw footage by tightening edits, adding motion graphics, and maintaining a consistent visual tone. Take ownership of your projects, from concept through delivery, delivering work that’s thoughtful, creative, and effective.
Requirements
Proven experience as a Motion Designer or Video Editor, with a portfolio that showcases both short-form social content and scene-based animation work. Proficiency in After Effects, Premiere Pro, and other relevant tools (Bonus: knowledge of animation software like Toon Boom or similar). A strong eye for visual storytelling, pacing, and content optimization across platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. Experience creating educational or explainer-style animations, especially using graphics related to health, anatomy, or science (preferred but not required). Comfortable working with vector assets and brand design elements to produce high-quality animations. Deep understanding of current social media trends, especially video content that performs well in a scroll-heavy world. Collaborative mindset, but also confident working independently, proposing ideas, and pushing creative boundaries. Excellent communication and organization skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and meet deadlines.
