Motion Designer / Animator | Bristol

Job Description

Hours: Full time, permanent

You're reading this ad, so you're ready to outthink. To take your skills, knowledge and experience beyond what you thought possible. And TMP268 is the place to do it.

TMP268 is a creatively strategic marketing agency, home to the Armed Forces Recruitment Service. Protecting the nation begins here.

And what does that mean for you? It means new challenges to rise to. Being encouraged and empowered to outthink at every opportunity. It means creating industry-first solutions, harnessing emerging tech, and realising AI's potential to create human connection. It means feeling valued for everything you bring. And work you can be proud to call your own, whatever your role.

The role

As a Motion Designer/Animator at TMP268, you'll bring stories, ideas and brands to life through dynamic, impactful motion and animation that captures attention and creates emotional connection.

Working across film, social and digital content, you'll play a key role in shaping how audiences experience creative work. Combining creative flair with strong craft and technical execution, you'll create motion-led content that not only looks brilliant but works across multiple channels and platforms.

You'll collaborate closely with designers, creatives, copywriters, strategists and production teams to interpret briefs, develop ideas and elevate concepts through animation, pacing, typography, editing and visual storytelling. From animated brand assets and social content through to motion graphics, UI and animated campaign visuals, you'll help deliver creative that feels modern, engaging and culturally relevant.

This is a role for someone who genuinely loves motion and animation. Someone who's curious about trends, technology and culture — and excited by the opportunity to experiment, evolve and push ideas further. You'll help shape and strengthen our motion offering, bringing fresh thinking and creative energy into the agency every day.

You'll join a collaborative, ambitious and supportive creative environment where people champion one another, care deeply about the quality of the work, and are passionate about building something genuinely exciting together.

Who we're looking for

You're a highly creative motion designer/animator with a strong eye for detail, storytelling and visual craft. You thrive in fast-paced creative environments, enjoy collaborating with others and love turning ideas into engaging motion experiences.

You'll be confident bringing concepts to life from storyboard through to final execution, balancing creativity with technical skill and strong organisation. Adaptable and self-motivated, you'll enjoy working across a variety of formats, channels and campaign styles.

We'd love to see:

• A strong portfolio or showreel demonstrating motion, animation and storytelling skills
• Experience across motion graphics, typography, editing and animation principles
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Cloud including After Effects, Premiere Pro, Photoshop and Illustrator
• Experience using Blender and Figma
• Strong understanding of integrated campaigns, visual identity systems and branded content
• Experience developing motion within wider brand worlds and creative campaigns
• An understanding of editing, pacing, sound and music sync
• Experience adapting content across multiple formats and platforms
• Previous experience working within an agency or fast-paced creative environment
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills
• A proactive, positive and solutions-focused mindset
• The ability to manage your own workload while maintaining exceptional attention to detail

You're set to gain so much from being part of our team, including:

• Time off to rest or conquer items on the bucket list with 27 days' holiday (+ 8 bank holidays) and a holiday purchase benefit where you can buy up to an additional 5 days.
• Great company paid benefits including our health cash plan, life assurance, company pension and access to an Employee Assistance Programme.
