Creative Center is Client’s in-house agency, producing client, prospect, and internal communications across digital experiences. We’re looking for a Senior Motion Designer to lead motion-driven storytelling and elevate how our brand and products come to life through animation. This is a motion-first role with a strong focus on digital product and brand experiences—blending creative concepting with hands-on execution.

You’ll help define how motion enhances clarity, usability, and storytelling across Client’s digital experiences—bringing thoughtful, high-quality animation into product and brand at scale.

 

Creative things you’ll do:

• Design and deliver motion across digital experiences, including product animations, video content, data visualizations, UI transitions, and interaction states

• Translate complex ideas into clear, compelling visual narratives

• Partner with UX/UI designers, creatives, and developers to integrate motion into product and marketing experiences

• Ensure a consistent, scalable motion language that balances brand expression, usability, and performance

• Create and refine supporting static assets (e.g., illustration, compositing, light design work) as needed

• Uphold and evolve brand standards across digital touchpoints

• Present work, incorporate feedback, and contribute to a collaborative creative culture

 

What you’ll bring:

• 5+ years of experience specializing in motion design, animation, and concept-driven storytelling

• A portfolio demonstrating motion work across digital products, brand, and/or interactive experiences

• Expert-level proficiency in After Effects; strong working knowledge of Premiere Pro, Illustrator, and Photoshop

• Experience with Figma and Lottie (or similar) for product integration and developer handoff

• Strong understanding of motion principles for UX (e.g., transitions, hierarchy, feedback)

• Familiarity with accessibility standards (e.g., reduced motion) and performance optimization

• Experience working closely with product teams and engineering

• Ability to manage multiple projects, meet deadlines, and work autonomously in a fast-paced environment

• Clear communication skills and confidence presenting to cross-functional partners
