About the job
The creative and advertising agency ESE Agency is looking for a motion designer with an eye for design and aesthetics. You know how to bring storyboards to life with animations — from subtle transitions to bold visual statements. Whether it's social clips, brand animations, TVC or digital out-of-home: Your animations bring spice to every campaign. Creative? In love with details? Tech-savvy? 3x “Yes”? Then you've come to the right place! You create motion design with national visibility — from dynamic campaign visuals to brand animations for billboards. You work with creative minds from art direction, film and strategy and are not afraid to stand behind the camera yourself or make the cut.

About us

Our environment is dynamic, our standards are high and our climate is familiar. We bring communication back to the future — with courage, originality and impact. When brands reinvent themselves, websites are created or big campaigns roll out, you're right in the middle of it. We sense trends, think across media and create visual experiences that stick. The next chapter? Start with yourself.

Your field of work

Development and implementation of motion design concepts
You translate campaign ideas into animated visuals — with a sense of timing, emotion, and aesthetics.
Create animations and visual effects
Whether logo animation, kinetic typography or 3D motion — you get projects moving from storyboard to render.
Design of social assets & campaign content
You develop creative assets for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, DOOH or TV — and pay attention to platform-specific looks.
Collaboration with art direction & video team
In close cooperation with art directors, editors and creative directors, you will develop holistic motion experiences.
Contributing to Brandings & Visual Identities
You are part of the creative process when new brands are created — and help define how they feel when moving.
Film and editing
As part of the video team, you also pick up the camera, accompany a shoot and edit the material.

Experience with After Effects, Premiere Pro, Illustrator, Photoshop (Cinema 4D or Blender is an advantage)

Good understanding of design, typography, timing, and sound design

Experience in animation, motion graphics and video editing

Sense for brand aesthetics and visual storytelling
