The role.

London-based, hybrid.

A motion designer with 4-8 years of experience in design or production studios. An expert in animation and motion in all its forms.

Who we are

We’re a group of people who make beautiful, original brands that change the world for the better. We’re fuelled by creativity and sceptical of convention. We are trusted by some of the world’s most interesting companies, including Hulu, Roblox, AT&T, British Land, IMAX, Harry Potter, Channel 4, Eurosport, Delta and AC Milan. Brands that seek to be brave and challenge convention.

We collaborate with brands and in-house creative teams across the world from our London studio. We seek revolution rather than evolution and embrace change to remain fiercely original.

What we believe

Great design is born of difference; we are constantly seeking new perspectives and identities to build our team. We’re a vibrant, eclectic, open group of people from all over the world, which makes for a rich environment full of ideas.

DixonBaxi is a place of growth. We believe that a positive and diverse culture makes us all do great things. The creative studio atmosphere allows everyone to develop new skills, try new things and never settle. We are open-minded and adapt to new ways of working or thinking constantly. We foster access, opportunity and success for everyone.

Our studio home is based in London (N1) and we come together at least 3 days a week to enjoy the space and time together. We believe that studio time and our wonderful surroundings are very important for creativity to thrive. Working together enables us to creatively approach new ideas, inventions and to enjoy the journey.

We care about the team and are always looking for new ways of working and supporting each other. Our 4.5-day week is a good example and Friday lunches - the weekly thank you!

We offer many benefits including a Bupa Cash Plan, enhanced parental leave and a cycle-to-work scheme. Where possible, we encourage travel overseas to meet our clients and embrace the opportunity to do things together (like our Barcelona trip to the OFFF conference last year).

As for the fun stuff - we come together every Wednesday to celebrate projects as well as birthdays and workiversaries. There is the opportunity for each person to do a shout-out of thanks to other members of the team.

Who you are.

You love creativity. You love invention. You believe it is worth the effort to create the very best work. You’re looking to inspire, lead and define motion languages and systems for some of the world’s most dynamic and interesting brands. So you’re ready for more: more responsibility, more experimentation, more of a challenge and more room to grow.

What you do.
