At BlueNovius, we transform complex medical and scientific information into explainer videos and interactive experiences that inspire, educate, and engage. Our clients include many of the world’s top 100 pharmaceutical companies, and our work helps global audiences understand innovations that directly impact healthcare and lives.

We’re not just creating visuals – we’re shaping how science and medicine are communicated worldwide

The Role

We are looking for a Senior 2D Graphic & Motion Designer to elevate our motion graphics and interactivity team.

This role focuses on design excellence and execution mastery — you’ll create style frames, storyboards, characters, visual systems, and animations that form the foundation of our motion and interactive projects. Every asset you produce will be flowing with creativity, animation-ready and production-efficient. You’ll also act as a bridge between directors and designers, mentoring juniors, reviewing outputs, and ensuring projects consistently meet both creative and technical excellence.

What You’ll Do

Transform complex, data-heavy content into engaging, clear, and medically accurate visual narratives
Deliver exceptional storyboards, style frames, characters, and visual assets that set the creative benchmark
Review and optimize assets, ensuring quality and motion readiness
Facilitate clear communication between art directors and the motion design team
Mentor and guide junior designers, fostering a collaborative learning environment
Navigate company guidelines and playbooks with confidence, solving design challenges efficiently
Ensure all assets are rigged and production-ready, with strong knowledge of After Effects pipelines
Own projects from concept to completion, knowing when to involve directors or other departments
Apply UX principles to support interactive video experiences

What We’re Looking For

5+ years of professional design experience, including motion graphics & animation pipeline exposure
Advanced skills in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects) and Figma
Constant push for excellence — never satisfied with “good enough”
Comfortable mentoring junior designers and supporting their growth
Proven expertise in character design and rigging (essential for this role)
Deep understanding of animation principles
Excellent storytelling skills to simplify and visualize complex scientific content
Solid grasp of UX principles to support interactive experiences
Fluent English & excellent communication skills
Windows-based workflow experience (not Mac)

Nice to Have
