WHY WE NEED YOU? GLAD YOU ASKED...
In this role, you’ll be tasked with designing and producing graphic elements within our Video & Editorial team. We need a designer who thrives on modern storytelling and understands how to craft compelling visual narratives for today's social media landscape. You will be responsible for creating graphic elements for content, marketing, and sponsorships on Fast Channel, Social Media, and Television platforms. You’ll work closely with both external and internal clients to produce a product that provides an awesome experience for our Television and Social Media users, Sponsorship clients, and Corporate and Marketing Teams.
THE ROLE
We are looking for a Motion Graphics Designer with a great design eye to join our dynamic Video & Editorial team. We need a "creator minded" designer who is preferably already making their own content and brings a fresh, contemporary approach to the table. In this role, you will help refine our visual storytelling while playing a key part in how our brand comes to life through short-form social content, strategic partnerships, and marketing initiatives.
You will bring fresh perspectives and ideas to every project, conceptualizing, creating, and developing new and innovative graphic elements to be put on our various platforms. We are primarily an Adobe Creative Cloud shop, but we are looking for someone who is eager to push the boundaries of digital content creation.
Please note, we are only considering candidates who are eligible to work in Canada and can work in a Hybrid model at our Oakville, ON, Canada location.
