As with the previous role, my client is looking to add real value to their creative offering through the hiring of a Hyper Designer.
The ideal candidate will be an original thinker who takes creative concepts and translates them into an animated and interactive visual format. Candidates will need to be fully conversant in all industry-standard design packages, including Flash and be able to make a character leap from ladder to level or integrate bespoke video with crafted interface design, able to express the essence of a brand in a single gesture.
This role is also about the future. The role is as much about delivering thinking that extends beyond current established formats and knowing/having an opinion about what will become possible in interactive rich media, as it is about working within present day techniques.
Ideal candidates will be digital natives, with a wealth of experience with a range of internet-related technologies (ideally multi-platform); they’ll show a passion for design, movement and storytelling; and they’ll have the desire to share, promote and deliver this wealth experience to clients and the wider team, to strengthen the agency’s brand and market leading position.
Key skills include:
- Flash (ActionScript and XML)
- Working knowledge of After Effects and Premiere (or similar)
- Hands on experience of working with video footage (including the planning of shoots)
- Excellent Photoshop and Illustrator skills
- Experience of 3D modelling (3D Studio Max, Maya, Cinema 4D, etc) would be great to have
- As would experience of working on mobile and/or interactive TV platforms.

About Timothy Creative Talent Consultancy's blog
Hello and welcome to my blog(s).
In my role as a talent strategist and career coach (currently with The Talent Business in London), I work with creative people on an individual and personal basis, helping them to understand their unique skills and, as a result, find them their perfect job.
My clients are integrated/360 & digital agencies and they take me to the heart of their businesses, share their vision and goals, and then work with me to evolve how they manage their recruitment, search, talent management or departmental succession planning.
My service isn't a volume-driven or 'one size fits all' approach. My goal is to deliver a service that is individual, tailored and reflects the needs of those I represent and work for. And I work on the premise that everyone will be a candidate at some point in their lives, so I treat people the way I want to be treated.
I work on both retained and contingency assignments.
In my past life I have worked both for agencies and clientside in senior client service & marketing positions. I have gained extensive integrated marcomms and campaign experience - particularly within the financial services, not-for-profit, B2B, travel and FMCG sectors.
In addition to my day job, I also work with advertising degree students, coaching them on portfolio preparation, interview training and best practice networking. And I am currently studying for my coaching diploma, so that I am able to offer an even deeper & accredited service.
Specialities: retained search, contingency recruitment, succession planning, talent attraction & talent acquisition strategies, career coaching; delivering career opportunities for creatives across the integrated/360 & digital agency spectrum.
If you are interested in finding out a little more about what I do and whether I can help, please get in touch. I'll be very happy to hear from you.
