Motion Designer

Why Join DAZN?

At DAZN, creativity drives how we connect fans to sport worldwide, and joining us as a Motion Designer means stepping into a role where design truly influences global storytelling. DAZN has become one of the fastest-growing sports streaming platforms, holding premium rights from the UEFA Champions League to Serie A, Bundesliga, and many more. In this role, you’ll work within DAZN’s in-house Creative Services team, collaborating with talented designers, creatives, and production staff to deliver visually striking, innovative work. This is an opportunity to produce impactful content across digital, broadcast, and live events, ensuring our communications and marketing campaigns stand out in a crowded sports media landscape. With DAZN’s constant growth and ambition, your designs will not only elevate the brand but also directly contribute to business performance and fan engagement worldwide.

The Role

As a Motion Designer, you will create motion graphics and digital assets that bring DAZN’s campaigns, events, and broadcasts to life. From conceptualising ideas to executing final designs, you’ll deliver motion graphics that engage audiences across broadcast, digital, social, and live platforms. You will work closely with creative colleagues, producers, and stakeholders to interpret briefs and develop solutions that are visually compelling, brand-aligned, and performance-driven. This is a varied, hands-on role that combines creativity with technical execution — whether you’re structuring projects from start to finish, collaborating with freelance artists, or delivering graphics onsite at live sports events. You’ll be part of a small but highly skilled team that travels internationally, supporting marquee sports productions and creating unforgettable fan experiences.
