About Pesa

Pesa is a global fintech helping people move, manage, and spend money across borders. We’re building a brand that makes money feel simpler, more accessible, and more human for people living, working, studying, and sending money across countries.

We’re looking for a Motion Graphics Designer to bring the Pesa brand to life through engaging, high-quality motion and visual storytelling.

This role sits at the intersection of design, storytelling, brand, and marketing. You’ll create motion-led content for campaigns, social media, product launches, digital advertising, and other customer touchpoints.

What You’ll Do

  • Create engaging motion graphics and animations for Pesa’s marketing campaigns, social media, website, email, in-app experiences, and digital advertising.

  • Translate campaign concepts, product stories, and marketing briefs into compelling visual narratives.

  • Develop short-form video content designed for platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, and other digital channels.

  • Bring static brand assets, illustrations, typography, and campaign concepts to life through animation and motion.

  • Work closely with the Brand, Marketing, Content, Product, and Growth teams to develop creative that supports business and campaign objectives.

  • Develop motion concepts from brief to final execution, including storyboarding, animation, editing, sound, and delivery.

  • Create product and feature animations that make complex financial products and user journeys easier to understand.

  • Adapt creative concepts into multiple formats, sizes, and platforms while maintaining visual consistency.

  • Contribute to the evolution of Pesa’s motion language, helping define how the brand moves and behaves across different touchpoints.

  • Participate in creative brainstorming and bring fresh ideas, references, trends, and visual approaches to the team.

  • Manage multiple creative projects simultaneously while maintaining quality and meeting deadlines.

  • Ensure all motion work follows Pesa’s brand guidelines and maintains a consistent visual identity.

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years of experience in motion graphics, animation, video design, or a related creative role.

  • Experience working in fintech, technology, financial services, or other fast-moving digital businesses.

  • A strong portfolio demonstrating excellent motion design, animation, storytelling, and visual execution.

  • Strong knowledge of Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro.

  • Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.

  • Strong understanding of typography, composition, colour, pacing, transitions, and visual storytelling.

  • Ability to turn an idea or brief into a clear visual concept and compelling piece of content.

  • Strong attention to detail and a high standard for visual quality.

  • Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams.

  • Strong understanding of brand consistency and how visual design can support brand positioning.

  • Ability to work quickly and adapt creatively for different audiences, formats, and channels.

  • Curiosity about emerging creative trends, formats, tools, and technologies.

  • Familiarity with Figma and collaborative design workflows.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with 3D animation or Cinema 4D/Blender.

  • Experience with character animation or illustration.

  • Experience with sound design and audio editing.

  • Experience creating UI/product animations and app demos.

Your Portfolio

A portfolio is required for this role.

Please include examples that demonstrate:

  • Motion graphics

  • Short-form social content

  • Campaign creative

  • Typography or graphic animation

  • Product/UI animation, where applicable

  • Any particularly strong examples of visual storytelling

For each project, we’d love to understand the brief, your role, your creative approach, and the final outcome.

Prepare your application

Use the description above to assess your fit for Pesa. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.

Match requirements to evidence

Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.

Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.

Check the working arrangement

Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.

Review before submitting

Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.

Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.

Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
