Job description

Vistar Media is the home of out-of-home (OOH). As a global ad tech company and the world's largest digital out-of-home (DOOH) advertising marketplace, we offer technology designed to make buying and selling OOH media easier. Our goal is simple: to help the world's marketers leverage OOH's unique ability to motivate and delight.

From strategic partnerships with major media owner networks to executing impactful campaigns with renowned global brands such as Nestlé, Porsche, Target, and Levi's, our team is filled with passionate, innovative, and collaborative problem solvers, engaging and entertaining consumers like you in the real world. Find your home in out-of-home - find your people at Vistar.

As of January 2025, Vistar Media was acquired by T-Mobile and is now part of T-Mobile Advertising Solutions. By combining our DOOH expertise with T-Mobile’s unique customer insights and expansive omnichannel capabilities, we’re creating new opportunities to innovate at scale and make a meaningful impact on the future of out-of-home media.

About the Role:

Vistar Studio is looking for a talented and experienced Digital & Motion 3D Designer to join our Amsterdam team. In this role, you will translate major advertisers’ marketing goals into visually stunning high-impact digital campaigns running across our global network of DOOH screens.

We are looking for a mid to senior-level, independent problem-solver who bridges the gap between technical execution and high-end visual storytelling. You will own projects from briefing to final delivery - scoping requirements, managing your own pipeline, and collaborating with the wider global team to push the boundaries of what is possible on digital screens.

What You'll Do:

• Creative concepting: Translate complex briefs from clients and sales teams into cohesive, high-quality creative concepts & solutions that could win awards.

• End-to-End Production: Design and execute premium digital creatives (including advanced 3D assets, motion and static) tailored for diverse global brands.

• Convince by creative: Create presentations that demonstrate your creative idea, the rationale, in a clear and visual way.

• Project Ownership: Manage complex project scopes, set realistic timelines, and independently drive multiple projects to completion under tight deadlines.

• You co-create: Work closely together with fellow designers, account and sales teams to come up with high-quality creative solutions.

What Experience We're Looking For:

• 5+ years of experience as a digital, motion, or 3D designer, ideally within a fast-paced media environment, creative agency, or ad tech company.

• Expert 3D Skills: High proficiency in Blender is essential, backed by a strong portfolio showcasing 3D motion design.

• AI-Assisted Workflows: A proven ability to leverage generative AI tools and effective prompting to accelerate design workflows, conceptualize ideas, and generate assets.

• Mastery of the Adobe Creative Suite, with a heavy emphasis on After Effects and Photoshop for creating fluid, eye-catching animations.

• Experience designing and wireframing in Figma is highly preferred.

• Autonomy & Leadership: Demonstrated ability to lead creative discussions with internal stakeholders, handle client feedback with professionalism, and manage medium-term projects with minimal supervision.
  

Who You Are:

• You identify as ‘Creative’: Whileyou master the Blender and the Adobe suite, it is still your creative mind that makes your visual stories and solutions stand out and spark something.

• Autonomous yet Collaborative: You are a self-starter who thrives when given ownership, but you know exactly how and when to loop in the global team for maximum impact.

• Detail-Obsessed: You have a sharp eye for timing, pacing, and visual fidelity, ensuring every pixel looks perfect on a massive public screen.

• Adaptable: You pivot smoothly when priorities change and embrace the fast-evolving nature of ad tech.

• A professional mastery of the English language, both verbal and written.

What We Offer:

• Competitive salary & bonus scheme

• 25 paid vacation days - plus 1 extra day if you haven’t taken any sick days during the year

• Solid pension plan

• Commuting allowance (NS Business Card or Swapfiets subscription)

• Daily lunches, snacks, and drinks at our Amsterdam office

• Continuous learning opportunities to support your professional growth

• Friday drinks at the office (or on our sunny terrace!)

• A spacious, modern office just 10 minutes by bike from Amsterdam Centraal
