Digital Designer (Motion Graphics) – 3-Month Contract

📍 Fully Remote | 💰 £225–£275 per day | 📄 Outside IR35

We're supporting a growing consumer-focused business in their search for a talented Digital Designer to join the team on an initial 3-month contract. This is a fantastic opportunity for a creative and commercially minded designer who can bring brands to life through engaging digital content, eye-catching motion graphics, and high-performing creative for social and video platforms.
With a major focus on YouTube activity in Q4, we're looking for someone who understands how to create thumb-stopping creative that captures attention, increases engagement, and aligns with platform best practices.
The Role
As part of a collaborative creative team, you'll be responsible for designing a wide range of digital assets across multiple brands. While motion graphics experience is essential, this role is not purely animation-focused – you'll also create a significant amount of static digital content for paid and organic channels.
You'll work closely with copywriters, marketers, and other creatives to develop compelling visual concepts and execute engaging campaigns that stand out in crowded digital environments.

Key Responsibilities
  • Create high-quality digital assets across a variety of channels, including YouTube, social media, display advertising, email, and web.
  • Design attention-grabbing motion graphics and animations that enhance brand storytelling.
  • Produce static creative assets that align with brand guidelines and campaign objectives.
  • Develop original visual concepts from scratch, rather than relying solely on stock photography or existing product imagery.
  • Create engaging visual montages, illustrations, and digital compositions that resonate with target audiences.
  • Collaborate closely with copywriters and wider creative teams to bring campaign ideas to life.
  • Apply YouTube creative best practices to maximise audience engagement and performance.
  • Leverage AI-powered creative tools to support ideation and content creation where appropriate.
  • Ensure all creative output is consistent, on-brand, and delivered to a high standard.

Skills & Experience Required
  • Proven experience working as a Digital Designer, Creative Designer, or similar role.
  • Strong motion graphics experience and a portfolio showcasing both animated and static digital content.
  • Advanced proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, After Effects, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, etc.).
  • Strong working knowledge of Figma.
  • Experience using AI-powered design tools such as Midjourney, video AI platforms, and other emerging creative technologies.
  • Ability to generate realistic imagery and creative concepts using AI tools, such as creating photorealistic people, product visualisations, and attention-grabbing scenes.
  • Strong understanding of design principles, typography, composition, branding, and digital marketing creative.
  • Experience creating assets specifically for YouTube and a strong understanding of platform best practice.
  • Experience working with established brands, either in-house or within an agency environment.
  • Ability to take a concept from initial idea through to final execution.
  • A strong portfolio demonstrating creativity, commercial awareness, and digital-first thinking.

About You
  • You're full of ideas and know what makes people stop scrolling.
  • You understand how to create visual hooks that immediately capture attention.
  • You're energetic, proactive, and enjoy contributing ideas in a collaborative environment.
  • You work well with others and thrive partnering with copywriters, marketers, and fellow creatives.
  • You're curious about emerging technologies and excited by the opportunities AI brings to the creative process.
  • You balance creativity with commercial objectives and understand how design drives engagement and results.

Contract Details
  • 3-month initial contract
  • Outside IR35
  • Fully remote
