AI Summary

Lead the creation of high-quality 3D animations from storyboard to final render for TV ads and branded content. Collaborate with directors and clients to develop assets, implement advanced lighting, and optimize production pipelines.

Are you an experienced 3D Animator ready to take creative ownership and help shape standout
animation projects from concept to final delivery? We create high-quality TV ads, explainer videos, product demos and branded content. We’re looking for a talented and technically strong 3D Animator who can elevate our work, bring ideas to life with confidence, and play a key role within our growing studio. This isn’t an entry-level role — we’re looking for someone who can lead sequences, solve complex creative and technical challenges, and contribute to the development of our animation pipeline.


The Role

As a Senior 3D Animator, you will:

● Lead the creation of high-quality 3D animations from storyboard through to final render.
● Take ownership of projects or key sequences, ensuring creative excellence and technical precision.
● Collaborate closely with directors, designers, editors and clients to bring creative visions to life.
● Develop and refine 3D assets for animation, VFX projects.
● Design and implement advanced lighting, shading and rendering setups to achieve broadcast-quality results.
● Handle complex animation tasks including character animation, product animation, simulations and motion graphics.
● Contribute to compositing, post-production and final delivery workflows.
● Optimise scenes and troubleshoot technical challenges efficiently.
● Help improve studio workflows, pipelines and production processes.
● Mentor and support junior animators where required.
● Stay ahead of industry trends, tools and emerging technologies.



What We’re Looking For


● 3+ years’ professional experience in 3D animation (studio or agency environment preferred).
● Strong proficiency in Blender (our primary tool). Experience in Maya and/or Cinema 4D is highly
transferable.
● Excellent understanding of animation principles, timing, weight and performance.
● Strong knowledge of lighting, rendering and material workflows.
● Experience with compositing and post-production processes.
● Solid grasp of composition, colour theory and visual storytelling.
● Understanding of rigging and scene optimisation.
● Ability to interpret briefs and contribute creatively — not just execute.
● Strong problem-solving ability and attention to detail.
● Confident communicator, comfortable working collaboratively and, where required, client-facing.
● Excellent organisation and time management skills.
A strong, professional showreel demonstrating high-quality, finished work is essential.


Desirable (But Not Essential)

● Experience working on TV or broadcast advertising.
● Understanding of good design principles.
● Knowledge of simulations (cloth, particles, rigid body).
● Motion design experience.
● Experience building or refining production pipelines.


Why Join Us?


● Work on high-quality commercial and broadcast projects.
● Be part of a growing creative studio with real opportunity to shape its direction.
● Collaborate with a passionate, ambitious team.
● Contribute creatively — your ideas will matter.
