This role is part of our Global Studios team. We create emotive yet conversion-focused ideas, products and campaigns at scale and speed. Our specialty is hyper-personalised, digital communications that change perceptions, shape new behaviours, and shift market share for our clients.

This role is dedicated exclusively to Creative Automation—using technology to produce creative assets at scale. You will be designing and animating templates in Adobe After Effects that integrate with Lightspeed, our proprietary automation engine, to render the assets at scale.

You need to be naturally curious, technically-minded, and eager to experiment. We’re looking for candidates who never shy away from a challenge, are excited to find new and novel solutions to creative problems and who, most importantly, enjoy the more technical side of motion design and animation.

  • Become an expert in Lightspeed—our proprietary Adobe After Effects extension for building and designing creative automation templates.
  • Take pride in your work and have excellent project file ‘housekeeping’ skills — name your layers!
  • Be an ambassador of the entire creative automation team.

WHAT YOU BRING:

  • A portfolio demonstrating creative projects with a clear technical aspect.
  • A deep understanding of Adobe After Effects.
  • Comfortable writing and using expressions in After Effects.
  • Knowledge of the basic principles of JavaScript.
  • A keen interest in and knowledge of third party scripts, plugins and extensions for Adobe software.
  • Proactive and self-motivated with strong initiative.
  • Eager to learn and develop new and existing skills.
  • Meticulous attention to detail.
  • Independent and confident, but works well with others.
  • Process-driven and a great communicator.

WE OFFER

  • A flexible, hybrid working policy (2 days from the office, depending on location).
  • An excellent salary based on experience and equal pay policies.
  • Pension, free private healthcare, mental health support, and company sick pay scheme.
  • 26 days paid holiday (plus UK Bank Holidays).
  • Help getting you to work with a season ticket loan and cycle to work scheme.
  • Enhanced family friendly policies to support new parents.
  • Social and Cultural Events, plenty of opportunities to connect with colleagues through organised activities and celebrations.
  • Inspirational Talks, bringing the outside in with regular guest speakers and events.
  • Learning and Development, supporting your growth with continuous opportunities to learn and advance.
  • Buddy Programme: You will be paired with a ‘Buddy’ to help you through your first weeks’ at DEPT®.
  • A reputation for doing good. DEPT® has been a Certified B Corp® since 2021 and named ‘Agency of the Year’ at both The Lovies and The Webby Awards.
  • Awesome clients. Whether big or small, local or global — at DEPT® you’ll get the opportunity to work with clients of all sizes and across all industries. And we celebrate all of our successes together!
  • The opportunity for possibility. We want to enable you to do what you do best and help you develop your skills further with training, development and certifications.
  • Global annual DEPT® Cares Month in which employees come together and donate their skills to support local charities.

We are open to a few different levels for this role.

WHY DEPT®?

We are a Growth Invention company built to help the world’s most ambitious brands grow faster. Operating at the intersection of technology and marketing, we create what is next by pioneering ideas, acting fast, and moving further because standing still just is not in our DNA.

We are drawn to people who stay curious, move with intent, and never stop inventing. Our culture runs on three values: better together, relentlessly curious, and get sh*t done. It is how we work, how we grow, and how we make things that matter.

At DEPT®, you will find the freedom to explore, the space to collaborate, and the trust to make a real impact for our clients, for each other, and for the world we are helping to build.

DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION

At DEPT®, we take pride in creating an inclusive workplace where everyone has an equal opportunity to thrive. We actively seek to recruit, develop, nurture, and retain talented individuals from diverse backgrounds, with varying skills and perspectives.

Not sure you meet all qualifications? Apply, and let us decide! Research shows that women and members of underrepresented groups tend not to apply for jobs when they think they may not meet every requirement, when in fact they do. We believe in giving everyone a fair chance to shine.

We also encourage you to reach out to us and discuss any reasonable adjustments we can make to support you throughout the recruitment process and your time with us.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
