We are looking for a visionary artist to join our team and contribute to creating immersive visual

Role overview:

We are looking for an experienced Motion Designer to join our creative team and produce high-calibre

About Us:

At Sport Signage, we bring over 80 years of expertise in delivering top-tier branding and advertising

solutions for the world of sports. Our global reach allows us to handle large-scale projects in fast-paced environments, far beyond just signage. From concept to completion, we bring together a team of highly skilled professionals to deliver high-quality projects with impactful visual and branding experiences. We have contributed to numerous high-profile events, including Formula 1, the Superbowl, and many others. As we continue to grow, we’re excited to face new challenges head-on.

animation, compositing and final renders.

• Translate strategy and creative briefs into clear motion solutions that meet client objectives and

technical constraints.

• Produce high-quality 2D and 3D motion assets (brand films, product demos, social cutdowns,

event screens, environmental animations).

• Maintain and evolve visual systems (typography, motion language, colour, transitions) across

client portfolios.

• Present work confidently to management, clients and agency stakeholders; complete feedback,

revisions and sign-offs.

• Work with management to scope projects, estimate effort, plan render schedules and provide

accurate delivery timelines.

• Troubleshoot technical issues in compositing, renders and delivery formats; ensure files meet

technical and broadcast standards.

• Mentor junior designers and help maintain best practices, templates and pipeline tools.

• Where relevant, support on-site or remote setup and operation for outdoor / experiential

installations and events (will include international travel).

• Have excellent English communication skills and a positive attitude to resolving problems, whilst

operating under pressure in a fast-paced environment, managing multiple projects concurrently.


Required qualifications & experience:

• 5+ years professional experience in motion design with demonstrable senior-level craft.

• 5+ years hands-on experience with Adobe After Effects, Illustrator and Photoshop.

• 3+ years experience working in Cinema 4D with Octane and/or Redshift rendering engines.

• A strong showreel/portfolio that includes work completed for blue-chip companies (agency or inhouse) – showreel must demonstrate both creative and technical authorship.

• Direct client-facing experience: presenting work, managing feedback and maintaining

professional client relationships.


Technical skills (must haves):

• Advanced After Effects: expressions, parenting, precomps, motion graphics workflows and

compositing.

• Adobe Illustrator & Photoshop: high proficiency in preparing and adapting vector/raster assets

for motion.

• Cinema 4D: modelling workflows, scene layout, texturing and lighting.

• Octane and/or Redshift: materials, optimisation, render settings and efficiency for tight

deadlines.

• Familiarity with standard codecs, delivery formats and file management for broadcast, web and

large-scale LED screens.

• Comfortable working with version control for assets, and handover formats (project files, layered

renders, EXR/Zips, LUTs).


Desirable skills & attributes:

• Experience producing content for outdoor/experiential events and LED screens.

• Basic 3D scripting or pipeline automation (Python, C4D scripting) — a plus.

• Strong editorial sense, timing and storytelling ability across different platforms and durations.

3D artist, etc.) and the tools used.

• Brief cover note explaining why you’re a fit and highlighting any experiential/event work.

experiential productions.

We are an equal opportunity employer. We welcome candidates from diverse backgrounds and are

committed to providing an inclusive workplace.
