Job description

Run the motion team: the reviews, the schedule and the standard every animation meets.

You set the standard for every animated ad and video the studio delivers, and you make sure it ships on time. As a Motion Design Manager at MMC, you lead the motion designers, plan their workload across client accounts, and review work before it reaches a client. You still animate the hardest pieces yourself. You work with creative strategy and performance teams, so motion is planned around what gets tested, for D2C brands, B2B companies and educational institutes. The role is open on-site in Indore or remote within India. Remote hires may occasionally be asked to visit our Indore office.

• Plan the motion schedule across accounts, and flag capacity problems early
• Set and maintain the motion system: templates, presets, naming and export standards

• A reel showing campaign work you led, and a clear note of your part in each piece
