Motion Graphics Designer

London (hybrid, 2-3 days in-office)

Are you a London–based Motion Graphics Designer who is comfortable having your face licked by some of your coworkers? If so, gosh, do we have the job for you!

In addition to the occasional face lickings, you’ll be part of The Disobedient, Edgard & Cooper’s creative studio which is tasked with telling the rest of the world what over a million pets already know: That Edgard & Cooper makes amazing nutritious pet food. You’ll do so working alongside copywriters, strategists, and other designers (and yes, dogs), mostly using digital touchpoints. Ideally, you’ve started to develop strong executional skills already but want to develop your conceptual thinking as well.

And if you do your job as we expect, you’ll be doing some of the best work of your career, all while helping to create one of the most iconic brands in the world. Seriously, the bar’s that high.

Responsibilities

One of our mantras is, “The worst thing you can do is everything we ask.” In other words, The Disobedient is an ideal home for creatives who are proactive self–starters – the kind of creatives that don’t limit their thinking to what they’re tasked with. All that said, there are plenty of things we do ask:

• Conceptualize, draft & produce joyful motion graphics. Your focus is on videos, but we have a wider need for all sorts of creative assets.
• Manage your own creative projects. You will be working closely together with other disobedient copywriters, marketeers & designers.
• Solve an array of challenges through visual design. You’ll play an active role from concepting to executing.
• We’re a scale-up, you’re a designer – life is full of surprises, so we’ll likely throw in some other fun stuff to do. We promise it won’t bite.

Skills & Capabilities

Considering the breadth of ways we’re bringing Edgard & Cooper to life, odds are good that any talent or passion you have could find a home here as well – so feel free to tell us what you love doing. In the meantime, it would also probably be helpful to check a few of these boxes:

• You have a few years of experience in motion graphics, ideally with some brand and campaign work under your belt.
• You’re fluent in Adobe After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign. Bonus points for Cinema 4D or anything else.
• You’ll constantly find new ways to apply our brand standards, to keep the work always fresh.
• You’re a natural multitasker and know how to prioritise, even when 3 Slack threads, 2 briefs, and 1 curious dog are competing for your attention.
• You feel comfortable speaking with colleagues across the company, and can manage different briefs from different people at the same time.
• You have a healthy dissatisfaction with everything you’ve ever done – one that serves as a motivation to constantly improve.

Other Things That Make Edgard & Cooper Edgard & Cooper

• Your salary package will include a pension plan, health insurance and Deliveroo for Work. We probably should’ve started with the Deliveroo part, huh?
• You’ll be working for a Certified B Corp Employer with supportive policies and practices to ensure we are one happy pack.
• You’ll enjoy company retreats to meet each other in person, as we’re spread across Europe.
• You’ll have flexibility to work from home to enjoy a better work-life balance.
• You’ll be able to bring your pet to work, because if there’s any company that understands the value of a pet, it’s us.
• You’ll have access to unlimited pet food because a happy pet equals a happy family.
• You’ll join us for an annual volunteering day to contribute to a cause we believe in.
• You’ll receive access to a wellbeing program which includes qualified counselling because caring for ourselves is just as important as caring for our pets.
• You’ll get a gym membership via Classpass.
• You’ll get 25 days paid holiday a year.
• You’ll be able to work from anywhere for one month per year to pursue personal interests.
• You’ll be able to take one month unpaid leave, giving you extra time to recharge and come back to work refreshed. No seriously.
