⚪ WHO WE ARE
We are Born Social, a social-first creative agency that brings brand building into the social era. We have a track record of delivering transformation for iconic brands like Guinness, Ford, and Barclays, led by our team of social natives and brand experts, underpinned by technology.
Backed by the strength of a brilliant business that's proudly B-Corp certified, we're consistently recognised as one of the best places to work.
As a Midweight Multimedia Designer, you'll create high-quality graphic and motion design assets - from static visuals to animated content and edits - that bring brand and campaign ideas to life across platform-tailored social, web, OOH and broadcast channels. The role blends craft, creativity and technical skill with an understanding of channel-specific storytelling. You'll take ownership of graphic and motion design projects, managing high-quality delivery against every brief. You'll proactively contribute to growth by showcasing craft skills in graphic design, animation, editing and AI-powered design tools to help build trusted client relationships.
🟡 WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
- You'll own graphic and motion design projects end-to-end from storyboard to final export delivering high-quality, crafted work that lands the brief every time
- You'll translate creative concepts into scroll-stopping GFX, static visuals and edits, tailored for social platforms, media placements and every touchpoint in between
- You'll bring proactive ideas to the table, elevating campaigns through dynamic static design and motion storytelling
- You'll work with AI-powered design tools as part of your craft using them to push ideas further and work smarter, not as a shortcut for quality
- You'll collaborate closely with Client Services, Creative and Production to deliver seamless, visually consistent campaigns across social, web, OOH and broadcast that keep clients coming back
🟢 WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- You're a talented, multi-disciplined midweight designer, equally comfortable in motion and static, with 2–4 years of experience (agency or in-house)
- You live and breathe social you know what makes a thumb stop, and you want to prove it across a variety of brands and sectors
- You're craft-obsessed with a keen eye for detail, and you take real pride and ownership in your work, quality and delivery
- Adobe Suite is your bread and butter (particularly After Effects, Premiere Pro, Photoshop and Illustrator)
- You're curious about AI and already using generation and prompting tools (Midjourney, Runway, Firefly or similar) in your creative process
- You're a self-driven problem solver with initiative, proactive in navigating challenges and flagging them early
- You're comfortable managing multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment where deadlines land simultaneously
🔵 NICE TO HAVE
- 3D skills (Cinema 4D, Blender or equivalent)
- Branding and identity design experience
- Experience with Red Giant or equivalent motion plugins
🟣 NO GRIT NO PEARL
No Grit No Pearl is our creative mantra – a single-minded statement of intent that defines how we get to great work and the standard we hold ourselves to. Because we believe the best work isn't formed instantly, they're shaped through commitment, care, and perseverance. Grit isn’t about grind - it’s about staying curious, pushing ideas, and appreciating the process to reach the Pearl - work we’re proud of, created to the highest standard that makes a lasting impact.
🔴 VALUES
Our values aim to pinpoint the magic ingredients for us at our best. We look for people who share our values and can add to our culture.
⚡️ See Challenge as Opportunity... is about our attitude and to be very clear, this is not a value of optimism, nor is it about loving every challenge.
⚡️ Say It Simply... is how we communicate. Think of the basic rules of communication - honest, clear, confident.
⚡️ Do What You Say... is the crux of our reputation and longevity. When you join Born Social, our trust is fully given. It is yours to lose.
⚡️ Make Each Other Better... is about our culture of collaboration and commitment to development. We are only as good as the people around us so we all take responsibility for developing each other, as well as ourselves.
⚡️ Consciously Contribute...is bigger than all the others. It ensures we grow right. It broadens our focus beyond Born Social and cements our commitment to doing what’s just, not what’s easy or immediately self-serving.
