-
3D & Immersive: Aiding in the setup or organization of 3D assets for immersive sites. (While deep 3D knowledge isn't a day-one requirement, a curiosity to learn and help in this space is a huge plus!)
-
Production Support: Prepping, resizing, and optimizing assets across the board to help the wider team push projects through to delivery.
Promotional & Awards Assets: Create simple yet beautiful promotional assets for Powster socials & website, client deliverables and awards submissions. Impactful key visuals that sum up our digital experiences ensures our creative lives on after the campaign period has ended.
Multi-tasking & Prioritisation: Ability to juggle tasks for a mix of projects at any given time, ensuring deliverables remain on schedule.
Team & Stakeholder Communication: With support from the Creative Lead, articulate the reasoning behind your design, motion, and 3D work, Proactively ask questions or provide context to clarify project requirements, ensuring all deliverables are polished and delivered to spec for the development phase.

Cross-functional Relationships: Build strong rapport across the business, ensuring seamless cross-functional collaboration in project delivery.
Quality Control: Develop a sharp eye for design and motion by collaborating with the Creative Lead, designers and Technical Artist to review internal demos and live projects, ensuring the final output stays true to the creative vision and feels polished and functional before it reaches the client.
Creative Input: Stay curious and engaged with the latest in digital and creative trends. You’ll bring new ideas into pitch discussions and be a part of shaping creative direction for future projects, helping the team stay innovative and ahead of the curve.
