Motion Designer/Editor

The Opportunity

FINN Partners is seeking a highly skilled Motion Designer/Editor to join our growing creative team. This role is ideal for a seasoned visual storyteller who can bring ideas to life through advanced animation, thoughtful editing, and a strong command of post-production craft. You’ll collaborate with designers, writers, and producers to create compelling video content for some of the world’s most respected brands.

Who Are We Looking For

We’re seeking someone who brings curiosity, collaboration, and a drive to make a meaningful impact. This is not an entry-level motion role. We’re looking for someone whose animation capabilities go well beyond basic motion graphics—someone who understands movement, timing, depth, and narrative, and who can execute sophisticated animated sequences with confidence.

• Advanced animation skills–well beyond basic motion graphics
• Expert-level proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro

Responsibilities

• Edit and animate high-quality video content across platforms, including brand films, social, digital, broadcast, experiential, and internal communications
