Original job description

Who We Are

Hi! We’re The Heist, the motion design, live action, and post production studio within Thinkingbox, the Brief-to-Built agency.

We bring together directors, designers, animators, editors, and technologists to create work that moves. From brand films to broadcast spots to social campaigns and experiential content, our team blends craft and curiosity to push ideas further. Across our studios, collaboration is real, feedback is open, and culture matters. We take the work seriously. Ourselves, a little less so.

The Opportunity

The Heist is on the hunt for an exceptional, hands-on Creative Director, Motion, to join our team in Toronto. In this role, you’ll lead a tight-knit team of motion designers, crafting visually stunning 2D and 3D motion graphics and animation for high-impact marketing campaigns. Reporting to the Director of Animation, you will work on advertising projects for a diverse range of clients, ensuring each campaign’s creative vision aligns seamlessly with client goals. Your role includes hands-on creation, storyboarding, and collaboration with our animation team, as well as client-facing responsibilities.

\nWhat You’ll Be Doing

Lead and inspire a nimble team of motion designers and guiding projects with a strong creative direction.
Be hands on and demonstrate intention when needed, be it in design or animation.
Develop clear storyboards and polished styleframes that convey the narrative and aesthetic of each campaign.
Oversee and participate in creating campaign assets, including 2D and 3D animation, ensuring all work aligns with brand guidelines and art direction.
Provide clear, actionable feedback to team members, fostering growth and maintaining the highest quality of work.
Engage directly with clients, interpreting their needs and providing creative insights throughout the project lifecycle.
Collaborate with the motion team to adopt new processes and workflows that meet the unique demands of each marketing campaign.
Contribute to project budgeting and resource planning to ensure efficiency.

What You’ll Bring

A portfolio showcasing a refined taste in motion design in 2D and 3D across varied marketing and campaign styles.
A desire to further your skills driven by your own curiosity.
8+ years of experience in a motion design role, with 3+ years in a leadership or senior capacity.
Strong proficiency in Cinema 4D and Redshift.
Demonstrated ability to create clear storyboards and refined styleframes that align with campaign goals.
Mastery of the Adobe Suite (After Effects, Premiere, Photoshop, Illustrator) and a thorough understanding of the animation pipeline.
Strong design sensibilities, demonstrating the ability to merge aesthetic and technical skills.
Working knowledge of XParticles, Marvelous Designer, and/or Houdini is a big plus.
Working knowledge of Figma.
Strong organizational skills, with a solution-oriented approach to creative and technical challenges.

Placement in the salary range will be based on factors such as internal equity, candidate experience, skills, and qualifications relevant to the role. If your compensation expectations fall outside of this range, we still welcome your application.

Equal Opportunity

At The Heist, we’re committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone feels valued, heard, and empowered to thrive.
