About the team
Our Brand & Content team is a group of social media experts, newsletter writers, designers, copywriters, and event pros-all working together to build a world-class brand creators love. We focus on growing Teachable's reach, connecting with new and existing audiences, and using content, design, and in-person experiences to drive awareness, generate leads, and deepen engagement.
What is the role?
We're looking for a Motion Designer (Visual Designer Strategist) to join our Brand & Content team. This role is focused on designing and producing motion graphics, product animations, short- and long-form social content, GIFs, and more-all that capture attention, reflect our brand, and drive engagement across Teachable's social platforms.
This is an individual contributor role (not a management role). You'll collaborate closely with designers, copywriters, product marketers, and social media managers to transform ideas into visually compelling content-ranging from product animations that highlight key features to video series that spotlight creator success stories. Your work will play a key role in how creators discover, understand, and connect with Teachable.
In this role, you will:

• Design and produce motion graphics, product demos, product feature animations, social animations, GIFs, and short-form video assets for Teachable's social channels.
• Translate static creative concepts into engaging motion content that supports campaigns, launches, product storytelling, and evergreen social content.
• Collaborate with the social media manager and brand designer to ensure content aligns with Teachable's visual identity and social strategy.
• Manage multiple projects simultaneously, ensuring timely delivery of high-quality assets.
• Stay current on motion design, animation, and social media trends to keep our content fresh and innovative.
• Optimize creative for different platforms (Instagram, YouTube + YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn, X, TikTok, etc.).

What you'll bring:

• 4+ years of professional experience in motion design, with a strong portfolio showcasing social-first content and product-focused animations.
• Proficiency in Adobe After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, Figma, Canva, and other relevant design tools.
• Expertise in creating short-form animations, product walkthroughs, motion graphics, and GIFs for social media.
• Strong design sensibility with attention to detail, typography, and visual storytelling.
• Ability to adapt to brand guidelines while pushing creative boundaries.
• Strong collaboration skills and ability to work cross-functionally with marketers, designers, and content creators.
• Self-starter with excellent organizational and time-management skills.

Nice to have:

• Experience working in SaaS, edtech, or within the creator economy.
• Familiarity with video editing tools (Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or similar).
• Knowledge of current trends in motion design, animation, and social media.

While Teachable maintains our NY office for local employees to use, we operate as a remote-first culture in order to give our employees added flexibility. In order to maintain connection and create a community beyond the screen, Teachable holds in-person events throughout the year, where employees and teams can come together for bonding, strategic alignment, goal-setting, and celebrations!
