In this role, you will design and incorporate captivating animations into all aspects of our creative work, bringing abstract concepts to life with dimensional visual elements.

You should be willing to step into any conversation eager to learn and ask targeted questions to take your designs to the next level. This position sits within our Creative Engagement team, a close-knit and nimble group that continues to grow alongside the firm. You will jump right into a variety of projects with little red tape and a quick feedback loop - an environment that really lets the creative process shine. A portfolio of work is required to apply.
