Contract type: 12-month Fixed-term

Reporting line: Lead Digital Learning Specialist

Working hours: 07H00am - 15H30pm SAST

The Motion Graphics Designer is responsible for the design and development of animated visual assets to support and enhance student learning. This includes the development of batch and bespoke motion graphics, animated interactive assets, and graphic assets for video and animation. 

In collaboration with Senior and Midweight Digital Designers (and, where relevant, our Multimedia team) the Motion Graphics Designer works to strengthen visual consistency for partner universities and the OES brand. They support ongoing efforts to build internal capacity, by contributing to internal training programs and the development of animation and graphic templates for use by the Learning Design team. 

In addition to design development, this role provides advice and support to designers on the best practice use of animated assets. By establishing strong working relationships within Learning Design, the role encourages collaboration and co-creation— bringing pedagogically sound design ideas to life. 

Sitting within the Digital Learning Specialist team, the Motion Graphics Designer helps to ensure a standard of quality and innovation in design that reflects current industry norms. Along with the broader team of Digital Designers, the role contributes meaningfully to our organisation’s efforts to reimagine online learning.

Responsibilities

The key contribution of the Motion Graphics Designer is to creatively execute visual design elements to support the Learning Design team. Specifically, this role is responsible for:

  • The production and refinement of student-facing animated and digital design assets that follow brand guidelines, including but not limited to, decorative and informative animations, interactive design and animation packages to enhance, extend, or augment OES learning products. 
  • Working with OES learning design staff to identify and explore opportunities to develop new design-centred experiences.
  • Digital delivery of design outcomes, including the embedding of final assets into Learning Management Systems (LMS) using basic HTML code. 
  • Working with the Lead Digital Learning Specialist and Senior Digital Designer to contribute to production planning and coordination, ensuring schedules and processes are followed to support high-quality stakeholder communications and timely delivery of assets. 
  • Maintaining and, where possible, strengthening templates, guidelines and training materials for the creation of animation and interactive content, with a view to promoting rapid deployment of reusable assets. This includes content and platform-agnostic animation templates for use by OES Digital design staff. 
  • Working with all Digital Learning Specialists to ensure consistent and secure storage and access of animated resources, including internal OES content and templates.
  • Pursuing creative and innovative digital design solutions, demonstrating an awareness of current trends and industry standards.

Requirements

  • Experience in designing for online, learner-centred, flexible education. 
  • Experience in commercial, industry, or academic creative production environments, with demonstrable competencies working with design technologies (including, but not limited to the Adobe Creative Suite).
  • Experience in conceptualising, designing and storyboarding interactive web experiences (ideally in online education).
  • Demonstrated high standard of interpersonal and communication skills including the ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a multi-disciplinary environment.
  • An appropriate graduate qualification in multimedia/graphic design (experience in educational environments would be highly regarded).
  • Confidence to partner with internal stakeholders and communicate the visual standards expected of OES products.

Benefits

These are some of the perks you can expect when you join the team:

  • Flexible working hours
  • Generous annual leave policy
  • Paid maternity, parental, and study leave benefits in line with policy
  • Learning and development opportunities within a global team
  • Fun events organized by the Construct Social Committee
