- # Motion Designer, Performance CreativeApplylocations: New Yorktime type: Full timeposted on: Posted Todayjob requisition id: R1127069**Job Description:**Dentsu Creative's Motion Team is looking for a mid-level Motion Designer. 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. 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. 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.This role is to be based in our NYC office and be on-site at least 3 days/week.### What You'll Do* **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* **Source and mix music and sound** for motion deliverables* **Maintain brand consistency** across all work in line with client guidelines* **Contribute to the team's creative culture** — share ideas, give feedback, help improve how we work### Requirements* **3–5 years of professional experience** as a motion designer, ideally in an agency, studio, or in-house creative team* **Strong portfolio/reel** showing range across social, campaign, and brand work — we want to see design thinking, not just keyframes* **Expert-level After Effects** — including expressions, shape layer animation, and familiarity with the plugin ecosystem* **Proficiency in Photoshop, Illustrator, and Premiere Pro*** **Strong graphic design and typography skills** — you should be able to design a beautiful frame before you animate it* **Combining live-action footage and motion design**should be second nature* **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)* **Understanding of social platforms**, trends, specs, and what makes content perform* **Basic audio editing** — syncing sound to motion, mixing, selecting music* **Disciplined file organization** — clean project files, consistent naming conventions, and handoff-ready file management* **Clear communicator** — can present work, take feedback constructively, and articulate design decisions to clients and teams### AI in Your Workflow**AI is being integrated into our workflows**. We expect you to be actively using it, not just aware of it.* **Use AI tools to speed up your process** — generating references, iterating on concepts, exploring layouts, streamlining repetitive tasks. Tools like Google VEO, Nano Banana, Adobe Firefly, Claude, Copilot and others. are evolving fast. Stay curious and share what works.* **Your design eye, animation instincts, and storytelling are what matter most.** AI helps you move faster — it doesn't replace taste and craft.### Nice to Have* Experience with Figma, Rive, or Lottie for web/interactive motion* After Effects scripting (ExtendScript, JSX)* Experience building motion systems or templates at scale### 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* This is a role for a designer-animator hybrid who loves moving between campaign and social work, collaborates well, and wants to help build something great#LI-Hybrid #LI-MS5**Additional Information**At dentsu, we believe great work happens when we’re connected.
