Motion Designer Broadcast Graphics

This is a Full Time Job

On-Site (Oakville) · Full-time · Reports to: Head of Design

We're hiring a motion designer at the start of their career with serious craft: the kind of person who can take a brand and a brief and turn out broadcast graphics that look stunning on air. If you graduated from a strong animation or motion program (co-op or internship experience a big plus) and you want to make graphics seen by millions of live-sports fans, keep reading.
This is a craft-first role. You'll work alongside senior designers creating the overlays, stat visuals, and branded motion that define how live sports look on screen, with the room to grow your range fast.

What You'll Do
• Design and animate sports overlays, lower-thirds, real-time stat visuals, and branded motion for live broadcast.
• Invent new data-driven storytelling: use our automation and live data to build motion that goes deeper than traditional broadcast, telling the story behind the numbers, not just showing them.
• Build broadcast graphics packages: sometimes designing an elevated package from scratch, other times building from a client's existing approved graphics. It depends on the client, so you should be comfortable with both.
• Produce on-air-ready motion that holds up under live conditions and non-negotiable broadcast timelines.
• Build real-time, data-driven graphics in Rive so motion responds to live game data. We work in Rive here; if you haven't used it, you'll learn it on the job.
• Partner with developers and producers to take graphics from concept to broadcast.
• Help create motion for pitches, marketing, and sizzle reels.
• Take feedback fast and turn it around without losing momentum.

Who You Are
• A recent graduate (or up to ~1 to 2 years in) from a strong animation, motion, or design program. Co-op or internship experience is a major plus.
• Genuinely good motion craft already: clean, polished work with a reel that proves it. Strong in After Effects; Rive, Cinema 4D, or Blender a plus.
• A real visual and graphic designer, not only an animator: you can build a look and a full graphics system, not just move existing assets.
• Excited by what live data and automation make possible, and keen to push past traditional broadcast graphics into new kinds of storytelling.
• Strong sense of timing, composition, typography, and brand.
• Fast and focused. You manage your time, stay on task, and turn work around quickly.
• Coachable and proactive. You take direction well, ask sharp questions, and then run with it.
• Comfortable working on-site in Oakville in a high-pace environment where live events don't wait.

Bonus Points For
• Co-op or internship in motion, broadcast, or sports media.
• 3D modeling or animation (Cinema 4D, Blender).
• Any exposure to Rive, Lottie, or other real-time and data-driven graphics tools.
• Genuine sports knowledge or fandom.
• Working knowledge of broadcast graphics workflows.
