About the role

  • Job Description: Dentsu Creative's Motion Team is looking for a mid-level Motion Designer.
  • Your primary focus will be one of the most recognized names on the planet - a marquee client we can only reveal once you're in the room.
  • Working closely with other creative thinkers, you'll put animation principles and visual storytelling into practice to bring ideas and concepts to life through motion.

Responsibilities

  • Own motion projects end-to-end - from concept and pitch through design, animation, and final delivery
  • Collaborate with Creative Directors, Art Directors, Producers, and Project Managers to deliver on-brand, on-time work
  • Build and maintain reusable templates, motion systems, and toolkits that improve team speed and consistency
  • Design for platform - Be versed in best-practices to deliver content designed and optimized for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, paid social, and other channels
  • Manage multiple projects with shifting deadlines without sacrificing quality
  • Maintain brand consistency across all work in line with client guidelines
  • Strong portfolio/reel showing range across social, campaign, and brand work - we want to see design thinking, not just keyframes
  • Strong graphic design and typography skills - you should be able to design a beautiful frame before you animate it
  • You'll work in a highly creative environment, across campaign, brand, and social content - concepting and delivering motion design for some of the biggest brands in the world.
  • You'll own your projects, build systems that help the team move faster, and be comfortable leading your own work in a fast-paced agency environment.

Requirements

  • 3-5 years of professional experience as a motion designer, ideally in an agency, studio, or in-house creative team
  • Proficiency in Photoshop, Illustrator, and Premiere Pro
  • Working knowledge of Cinema 4D or Blender - enough to bring 3D elements into motion work (not a VFX role, but 3D literacy is expected in 2026)

Nice to have

  • Experience with Figma, Rive, or Lottie for web/interactive motion
  • After Effects scripting (ExtendScript, JSX)
  • What This Role Isn't
  • This is not a VFX-heavy role - if your reel is mostly compositing, particles, and simulation, this probably isn't the right fit
  • Additional Information
  • Our way of working combines flexibility with in-person collaboration to spark ideas and strengthen our teams.
  • Dentsu may designate other Hub offices at any time.

Compensation

  • At least 15 paid holidays per year,

Benefits

  • Medical, vision, and dental insurance,
  • Life insurance,
  • Short-term and long-term disability insurance,
  • Flexible paid time off,
  • Paid sick and safe leave, and
  • Paid parental leave.

Company info

  • Regardless of your work location, we expect our employees to be flexible to meet the needs of our Company and clients, which may include attendance in an office.
  • We are here to support you.

Equal opportunity

  • Dentsu is committed to providing reasonable accommodation to, among others, individuals with disabilities and disabled veterans.

Visa & Work Authorization
