If you live for performance, love solving hard problems, and want your work to actually mean something , you’ll fit right in.

About The Role

The role of the Lead Motion Designer is an incredible opportunity to work with Directive’s award-winning Creative team. You will be responsible for producing content for various client projects and will work in our Design department.

Our ideal candidate is knowledgeable and skilled at creating motion graphics content in After Effects, building engaging assets within brand guidelines, and producing appealing, sophisticated animations that will connect with target audiences and objectives. This person is also able to engage with clients with strategic ideas and consultative feedback.

We’re looking for someone who is not only great at producing multimedia content but is also socially intuitive, collaborative, appreciative of feedback, and passionate about pushing the limits and standing out from the noise.

  • Excellent verbal, written, and presentation skills
  • Strong analytical skills and the ability to build your designs into a multi-channel strategy
  • Ability to both fully own a project and also collaborate as a member of a team

  • Bonus Points :

  • Proficiency in Java for After Effects
  • 3D motion graphics abilities
  • What Success Looks Like

  • Regularly meet or exceed client KPIs, receiving high NPS scores by delivering top-notch work and building a positive rapport with the point of contact
