We equip operators with the foundational software to orchestrate their mix of platforms and capabilities, and then take mission-critical decisions faster than their adversaries.\nWe exist to ensure the UK and its allies out-think, out-pace and out-adapt those who seek to threaten our values and way of life. Our technology is designed for deployment in the world’s most austere environments, and is relied upon by the world’s most demanding operators. We deploy alongside them, bringing our technical expertise wherever it is needed.\nYou will join Arondite at a pivotal moment in the company’s journey. We are ambitious, building for the long-term and backed by globally renowned investors including Index Ventures (Anthropic, Wiz, Figma, Revolut). Our company is being built by exceptional engineers - people who find high-impact and technically challenging work engaging and exciting, and who consistently deliver outsized impact. You will collaborate with other brilliant minds to solve some of the world’s hardest and most important problems.\nYou will have ownership and autonomy from Day One. There is no corporate ladder at Arondite. We hire the best people and give them extremely high levels of autonomy; the sky is the limit for an individual with the right ambition.\nIf you are motivated by our mission and if you want to be part of our growing team, then we want to hear from you.\nAbout the role\nDesign is at the heart of everything we do at Arondite. Our software is used in some of the world’s most complex and demanding environments, where design can mean the difference between success and failure. We are obsessed with good design and want to ensure our brand reflects this passion.\nYou will join our marketing and communications team as our Creative Lead and first brand designer. You will work closely with marketing, deployment teams, product designers and strategy to define our brand direction, the visual assets we need to deploy and the best way to deliver them. We will look to you to be the voice of the Arondite brand - you will own our visual identity from day one, and drive it forward as we scale. This is a wide ranging role that will combine deep brand strategy and creative direction with hands-on execution.\nYour responsibilities will include:\nLead on the execution, refinement and evolution of the Arondite brand.\nDesign visually compelling assets across the full range of marketing and external communications: from decks, factsheets and white papers to conference stands, adverts and social graphics.\nDevelop illustrations and graphics to support our product marketing efforts\nEnsure brand consistency across all deliverables while pushing creative boundaries.\nCollaborate with growth, video, design and ops teams to understand company and project needs, and deliver impactful design work that showcases the world-class work we do\nBuild, maintain and grow a world-class asset bank of deployable materials and templates to help teams self-serve world class design assets\nExplore new opportunities for design-led initiatives across every company function and priority.\nRequirements\nYou should have:\nAn exceptionally strong and opinionated portfolio showcasing brand experience across a range of mediums: digital, print, web, presentation and beyond.\nAt least 3-5 years professional experience in brand or graphic design - either at agency or in-house at a fast-moving product company. Having worked for software-only companies is a major advantage.\nMastery of design fundamentals: typography, hierarchy, composition and colour - from statement work to complex document layout.\nAble to work at pace and make good decisions independently - briefs will not always be complete or clear. We value the ability to take ambiguity and turn it into clarity.\nIdeally, you would also have:\nExperience working alongside technical teams and complex organisations is a plus\nExperience and appetite for motion graphics, video production or photography skills are a significant advantage. We don’t expect mastery across every discipline, but a willingness to try and experiment with new capabilities is key.\nAbility to work with, brief and feed back to external and internal design partners.\nNote: We want Arondite to bring together individuals from diverse backgrounds and perspectives. We don’t expect everyone to have experience across each of these areas. Please apply even if you only partially fulfil this list.\nRight to Work\nWe require that all candidates have an existing Right to Work in the UK at the time of application.\nSecurity clearance\nWe believe in working closely with defence customers. As a result, this role is likely to require you to hold a clearance or be willing to undergo UK security vetting to Security Check (SC) or above. This normally requires having continuous residency in the UK for at least 5 years.\nOffice vs hybrid working\nWe are focused on building a positive, collaborative engineering-driven culture. We therefore believe in making the office a friendly, comfortable and fun place to be, and we try to work from the office where possible. Of course, there are times when it makes sense for you to work from home and that's OK. You may also need to travel to visit customers, depending on your role. But in general you should only apply to join Arondite if you're excited to come into the office and work in person by default.\nApplication process\nGenerally, our interview process is comprised of the following stages:\nCV submission with initial questions\nIntroductory Teams call (30-45 mins)\nIn-person portfolio review and discussion (45 hour) + brand exploration / critique (45 mins) \nFinal interview with one of Arondite's Founders (30 mins)\nBenefits\nHighly competitive base salary\nGenerous equity in EMI share options in a well-funded and growing startup\n7% employer pension contribution\nFree meals in the office every day\nPrivate health and dental insurance, with opt-in cover for dependents\nCycle to work scheme\nRelocation support\nAccess to any resources, equipment and training that you need to do your job in a world-class way","description_format":"text","description_chars":6175,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Dental insurance","Equity","Hybrid work","Stock options"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United Kingdom","iso":"GB","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-11T13:06:32Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"GB","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"Licensed UK visa sponsor (Skilled Worker)","filings_12m":null,"filings_prev_12m":null,"green_card_filings_12m":null,"median_offered_wage_usd":null,"route":"Skilled Worker","cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-13T06:20:30+00:00","sources":["UK Home Office: register of licensed sponsors (workers)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":9,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.324,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":81,"expected_fill_days":27,"reasons":["conf:2","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-13T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/arondite-creative-lead-brand","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/arondite-creative-lead-brand.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-13T13:05:46Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":20369,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":669244},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=669244"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Farondite-creative-lead-brand"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Farondite-creative-lead-brand"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Farondite-creative-lead-brand"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/arondite-creative-lead-brand\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Farondite-creative-lead-brand"}]}
