( 20694 )

Atlantis Dubai is part of Kerzner International, and home to two extraordinary resorts: the world-renowned Atlantis, The Palm and the ultra-luxury Atlantis The Royal. Together, they represent world-class service, bold innovation, and unforgettable experiences brought to life.

With over 6,000 colleagues from 129 nationalities, Atlantis Dubai operates as one team, with many departments and back-of-house functions seamlessly supporting both resorts. Across every role and department, our shared purpose is the same: to create amazing experiences and everlasting memories - not only for our guests, but for our colleagues too.

About The Role

As Creative Manager, Video & Motion Design you will be a hands-on, video-led multidisciplinary creative working across Atlantis The Royal, Atlantis The Palm, Aquaventure World and our extensive portfolio of restaurants, bars and experiences.

You will work across campaigns, brand films, social content, F&B, digital and motion, adapting your creative approach to very different brands and audiences. Strong design fundamentals are also important, allowing you to confidently combine typography, graphic design and motion within your work.
