Description:

We are seeking an Motion Designer. You will be joining us in building Oliver Wyman’s new hub in Lisbon.

This is a hybrid role that has a requirement of working at least three days a week in the office.

We’re looking for a Motion Designer who thinks like a designer first, and animates second. Someone who understands timing, restraint, typography, rhythm and now knows how to use AI intelligently without letting it dilute craft. It’s about timing. Tension. Restraint. Narrative. If you obsess over typography in motion, care about pacing down to the frame, and believe movement should elevate an idea not decorate it this is for you.

The Creative Studio is the global in-house creative agency of Oliver Wyman**,** a global management consulting firm. We operate as a disciplined, high-performing creative function within a complex, stakeholder-driven environment.

We will count on you to:

• Turn Strong Design into Intelligent Motion

• Translate concept and layout into crafted, purposeful animation

• Protect hierarchy, typography, and brand systems when things start moving

• Make deliberate choices about rhythm, pacing, and flow

• Design motion systems not one-off transitions

• Shape Narrative

• Bring clarity to complex ideas through sequencing and structure

• Develop storyboards and motion approaches from scratch

• Help define how a story unfolds frame by frame

• Elevate campaign work across social, film, digital, and presentations

• Raise the Creative Bar

• Deliver work that feels intentional, refined, and production-ready

• Push quality without losing discipline

• Balance creative ambition with real-world constraints

• Sweat the details — spacing, easing, audio sync, transitions

• Collaborate Like a Pro

• Work closely with Art Directors, Video Directors and other Creatives

• Contribute ideas, not just execution

• Defend your creative decisions with clarity

• Give and receive feedback without ego

What makes you stand out?

• Strong graphic design foundation (this is non-negotiable)

• Advanced After Effects skills (Premiere, Cinema 4D, or similar a plus)

• Deep understanding of animation principles

• Experience across integrated campaigns

• Confidence presenting your work and explaining your thinking

• Curiosity about AI and emerging creative tech

• Strong conversational English

• We foster a vibrant and inclusive culture where you can work with talented colleagues to create new solutions and have impact for colleagues, clients and communities.
