Senior Motion Designer at OFF+BRAND. – United Kingdom

You will own the motion layer across everything we ship. Overview That means defining how a site moves, how it feels, and how animation elevates the narrative rather than decorating it. You will work across web animation, video, and visual storytelling, bringing creative concepts to life in a way that makes the work unmistakably ours.You will collaborate closely with our Senior Designers and developers, translating static design into motion systems that are both ambitious and buildable. Some of that will be interaction design for the web: scroll-based animation, page transitions, hover states, micro-interactions. Some of it will be standalone motion work: brand films, showreels, social content, case study videos. You need to be comfortable across both.This is not a supporting role. You will shape the creative direction of motion across the studio and have a direct impact on the work we are known for.
