Brand & Motion Designer

About PRED
PRED is a decentralised exchange for sports predictions. Think Robinhood for sports. Fans trade on game outcomes with each other, not against a house, across football, NBA, NFL, F1 and tennis.
We're live and growing. We're backed by Accel and Coinbase Ventures. Our founders have built and sold companies before and have worked in VC, sports and web3.
The role
You'll be PRED's founding brand and motion designer, and you'll do the work yourself. This is not a manage-the-agency role. You'll own the PRED brand, set the creative direction and make the work: social, ads, launches, the website and match-day content.
We want you to treat PRED as your own brand. Nobody will hand you a style guide and a ticket queue.
You'll decide what PRED should look and feel like, defend it, and grow it with us.
We want someone who lives for two things: great design and live sport. You notice kerning on a broadcast graphic, you can name the best title sequence of the last World Cup, and you've already got a list of things you'd do better. You've won in your field before, and you want to do it again here.
How we want you to work
Think like a founder. You care about whether PRED wins, not just whether the asset looks good. You
know why you're making something and what it should achieve.
Own it end to end. You spot what the brand needs and ship it without waiting to be asked. If something is off-brand anywhere, it's your problem, and you fix it.
High agency. No brief? Write one. Missing a tool, asset or answer? Go and get it. You find a way.
Grow with it. The brand you build now is the one fans everywhere will come to know. You'll shape it,
measure it and keep making it better.
What you'll do
Motion for social and ads. Match previews, odds swings, big-win moments and product explainers for X, Instagram, YouTube Shorts and paid campaigns. Some of it ships the same day as the game.
Make data easy to read. Turn odds, price charts, leaderboards and stats into visuals a fan understands in two seconds.
Build systems, not one-offs. Create templates and toolkits the content team can reuse every match
day.
Grow the brand. Take PRED's identity into motion, 3D and animated type, and set the rules for how the brand moves.
Make AI part of how we create. Build AI-driven workflows with image, video, 3D and motion tools so a small team can ship more. Use AI to explore ideas and make finished creative, not just mood boards.
Cover the rest. Website and landing-page visuals, emails, pitch and investor decks, events and print.Hold the bar. Work with the founders, content, growth and product teams. Review work before it ships, including your own.
Must-haves
6+ years of brand and motion design at a top studio, agency or in-house brand team, with work you led from start to finish.
A track record you can point to: awards, campaigns that went big, brands you shaped, or numbers your work moved.
A senior-level reel: timing, easing, kinetic type and a clear point of view.
A real love of sport. You watch it, follow it and know what fans share.
Expert in motion design tools and Figma.
You already use AI in real work. You've built AI-driven workflows and shipped AI-made creative that met your own quality bar, and you can show it.
A sharp eye for typography, colour and layout. You can build a brand system and keep it fresh.
You can take a brief from idea to final export on your own, including the edit and sound.
Hands-on and fast. You can make great work in hours when a game is on.
Proof of ownership: something you started yourself, such as a brand, side project, studio or community you built.
Why join now
