We would like to find exceptional Character Artists of all levels to add to our expanding remote team.

ZBrush, Maya and Substance are the key bits, ideally with Real Time experience. The more strengths that you have, the more we will love you.

We work with a number of superb clients on some great projects. As a Digi Monster we will need you to be a flexible character and a self starter who is able to communicate well directly with our clients if needed.

Working for an outsourcer like us, gives you the freedom to work on a variety of projects, with different clients and styles. It’s the perfect opportunity to flex your creative muscles and showcase your skills to the world. Plus, you’ll be part of a team of industry-leading experts who will support and inspire you to reach new heights.

But it’s not just about the work, being a Digi Monster means you get to do what you love, from the comfort of your own home. Our remote studio model means you can work from anywhere in the world, and you’ll never have to worry about the daily commute again.

The length of the contract is up for negotiation as is the salary depending on your skills and experience. In addition to your CV, you must provide a showreel, portfolio or work samples to go any further. So, if you’re ready to take your character art career to the next level, come join us at The Digi Monsters!
