Job description

At Upcut, routine isn't really our thing. Every day, we explore fresh ideas, experiment with the latest AI tools, and stay a step ahead of trends to make campaigns get noticed.

From our Brussels office, right at the center of Europe, we create engaging content for the digital media campaigns of iconic brands, such as Lacoste, Disney+, Lotus, Ethias, Sézane, Brico, D'Ieteren, and many more.

If you're the kind of motion designer who's obsessed with details others miss (the transition that just feels right, the timing that keeps people watching, the sound design that hits) and who sees an empty timeline as pure possibility, you'll feel at home here.

Let's make videos together people can't look away from.

Your Role

Come onboard as a Motion Designer / Video Editor and plug into our tight, talented, passionate crew that moves fast, shares freely, and cares as much about the craft as you do.

Your mission: transform creative briefs into sharp, scroll-stopping 2D, 3D, and AI videos. Guided by our Creative Director, you'll be hands-on across the whole creative process, from client briefings to final export.

Your responsibilities

• Animate graphics and textual elements for digital video campaigns, based on a creative brief.
• Act as the guardian of the brand guidelines and visual identity.
• Collaborate with the Creative Director from concept through delivery.
• Deliver final assets in correct specs within the allotted production deadlines.
• Stay current on motion trends, tools, and emerging formats.
• Leverage AI-powered tools daily to accelerate creative workflows.

Your Profile

• You have a minimum of 3 years of experience in audiovisual production (agency or freelance).
• You are proficient in the Adobe Suite, especially After Effects, and are eager to explore new tools and innovative production methods.
• You have a strong understanding of audiovisual production fundamentals and a sharp eye for aesthetics.
• You are comfortable with creative AI tools or eager to dive in.
• You love challenging ideas, breaking the mold, and proposing new formats.
• You are proactive, detail-oriented, and autonomous.
• You speak French (mandatory) and English fluently, with a basic knowledge of Dutch.
• You are a resident of Belgium.

What We Offer

• An attractive salary and extra-legal benefits
• Growth opportunities and a space where your ideas truly matter
• A supportive and upbeat environment, where teamwork and good vibes are key
• A team that values initiative and gives you room to shine
• Opportunity to work from home and abroad several weeks a year

Recruitment Process

• If your profile catches our eye, you will be invited for an initial interview with our Creative Director. If successful, you will be asked to complete a test to validate your skills and invited for a second interview.
• And if it is a match, welcome to the team! Start date in 2027, to be determined based on your availability and notice period.
