Job description

What’s up? We’re VaynerMedia! We are a contemporary global creative and media agency with an expertise in driving relevance for clients and delivering impactful business results. The independently-owned agency was founded in 2009 and has offices in New York, Los Angeles, London, Singapore, Australia, Thailand, Japan and Mexico City. VaynerMedia has been recognized for its work at Cannes Lions, the Clio Awards and The Webby Awards. It is part of the VaynerX family of companies.

**Culture is our key and Empathy is how we build it. **VaynerMediaAPAC is strong with a world-class combination of diverse backgrounds collaborating to put forward innovative, creative and strategic solutions to the one advantage that stands the test of time --- PEOPLE. Day in and day out, we propel some of the biggest brands in the world to the intersection of attention and culture. In APAC, we are proudly +150, servicing a diverse client all around the region.

The PITCH

We are creators, creative industry rogues, and SuperBowl stars. We are not just on the internet; we are creating the stuff the internet wants to see. We’re insane for what we do and the people we do it with. We move so fast and make so much good shit that we can’t even keep up with ourselves. So, we need more folks just like us, the unconventional, less-obvious, unseasoned (or over seasoned) creative pros. But above all - passionate makers and culture shakers.

At VaynerMedia, we’re lucky that everyone within our walls thinks creatively – and shares a passion for building communities and understanding a world of micro-content. In that case, our designers serve a slightly different role than more traditional “digital creative types” but thankfully none of which involve the term “design ninja”

You have a passion for design and a hunger to learn how to create pieces that drive engagement and extend brand experiences. However, you also understand that good ideas can come from anywhere and are open-minded when working with teammates. You are a flexible multi-tasker who communicates naturally, passionately, and collaboratively. You'll be working exclusively within the digital realm (no print work) and the portfolio you submit should reflect this, but we also love seeing your overall solutions and ideas throughout your book.

This exciting opportunity will allow you to work independently while collaborating with our strong force of 50+ creative team members across APAC.

Here’s where you come in.

• You contribute to opportunities to develop original content and concepts for web and mobile.

• You mold daily short-form motion graphic assets for all digital social media channels.You create after effects templates to increase daily content output.

• You collaborate with design, video & social/editorial teams to conceptualize and create storyboards, motion graphics & animations for current & emerging platforms.

• You work with the creative team to evolve and develop aesthetics while maintaining consistency across all assets and channels.

• You eat, live and breathe the current industry & design trends to keep client’s brands innovative and fresh for our audience across all publishing platforms.

• Passion for making creative content on a spectrum of media platforms - social, streaming, AR, music, film, interactive, etc.

• Familiar with working with almost every content creation format out there: Adobe Premiere, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Creative Suite & design templates in Canva or Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, TikTok, Instagram, FB Live, etc.!

• Responsible, accountable, cool and always kind because you love the magic of collaboration

• Have we already mentioned possessing extraordinary motion design and editing skills?

Here’s the Gig --

• Master the ability to turn any branded content into a volume of social gold (clips, gifs, graphics, photos, stories, copy, etc.)

• Work with a wide range and quality of video and static imagery - from a collection of photography to short video clips

• Collaborate with our creative and strategy teams, to create and manipulate video, a plethora of photography, social copy, gifs, short clips, streaming stories, etc.

• Hone your design and, editing skills utilizing standard industry software and social platforms

• Wrangle and roll with your teammates on rapid-fire requests and seriously tight timelines while keeping a chill, proactive attitude.

What you should know about VaynerMedia

Think “lab” and not “agency”. We get excited about solving business problems, not creating advertising for the sake of making advertising. Our entrepreneurship DNA runs deep. We’re willing to break rules, try new things, and test hypotheses if it means better understanding our craft. It’s fun!

Our environment (and pace) feels much more like a start-up than most agencies you might be used to. Hopefully that, and the opportunity to collaborate with the talented and enthusiastic crew, work with big brands excites you, as it does us. We can’t wait to meet you.

P.S Portfolio would be nice :)
