We tell the stories that matter — clearly, creatively and built for the social feed. We're looking for a Motion Graphics Designer who can translate journalism into striking visual language. Someone who understands pace, typography, layout and movement and knows how to make serious stories feel dynamic.
Full-time | 100% remote | 100% social video
What You'll Do
Design and animate high-quality motion graphics for daily short-form vertical videos
Develop visual systems for long-form YouTube and interview formats
Collaborate with editors and producers to shape visual storytelling from concept stage
Create branded templates, title cards, lower thirds, explainer graphics and data visualisations
Adapt designs seamlessly across Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat and other social platforms
Maintain and evolve Spot On's visual identity across all output
Deliver polished assets on tight newsroom timelines

2 - 5 years of experience in motion design (digital or creator-led brands preferred)
Strong command of After Effects & Adobe Creative Suite
Ability to visualise data, policy and complex ideas clearly and cleanly
Sharp eye for typography, composition, rhythm and brand consistency
Deep understanding of social-first design and digital video formats
Comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment
Degree in design, visual arts or related field is a plus
Why Spot On
You'll help shape the visual language of a next-generation newsroom. We're building journalism for the creator era. This isn't a maintenance role. You'll define systems, build templates and create the motion identity of a fast-growing media brand.
