Each platform is deployable on its own, and stronger as part of the system. Its product lines include the MAGURA family of uncrewed surface vessels, the NEMESIS family of strike platforms, the LIUT family of ground robotic platforms, and counter-UAS systems.\nAs the Art Director you will set the visual standard for the company's materials and produce them: product and capability collateral, presentations, exhibition and event graphics, digital and social assets, and the images that explain the systems themselves.\nThis is a role for someone who both directs and who is hands on. It spans print, digital, environmental and presentation design rather than specialising in one, and it serves the whole company - sales, government relations, recruitment and the executive team, not marketing alone.\nIt is also where visual consistency is held. External agencies, photographers, 3D artists and film-makers deliver into the UFORCE brand; the Art Director sets what they work to and judges what comes back. The standard is that everything the company puts in front of a customer reads as though it came from one place.\nWhat you will do\nDesign the materials the company sells and speaks with: capability collateral, specification sheets, presentations, launch assets, digital and social graphics.\n\nHelp evolve the UFORCE visual system - typography, colour, layout, iconography and the treatment of platform imagery - and keep it documented well enough that others can work to it.\n\nTurn technical material - system architectures, concepts of operation, platform diagrams - into images a non-specialist can understand.\n\nDesign exhibition and event graphics, from stand panels to printed handouts.\n\nArt-direct photography, film and 3D work, on location and in review, so that commissioned material comes back usable and on-brand.\n\nActive use of AI tools in how work is run and delivered, and an appetite to commission or build workflows that do not yet exist rather than wait for them.\n\nDirect localisation of work across the company's markets.\n\nApply the company's security and export-control requirements to visual material, and route imagery of platforms, facilities and personnel for clearance before release.\n\nRequired Skills\nSubstantial experience as a Graphic designer or art director, in-house or in an agency, with a portfolio showing both range and finished craft across print, digital and environmental work.\n\nCommand of typography, hierarchy and composition, and a body of work that holds to a consistent system rather than a collection of one-off styles.\n\nThe ability to art-direct others - photographers, film-makers, illustrators, 3D artists - from written brief through review to delivery.\n\nDeep fluency in Figma, the company's primary design environment: components, variants and shared libraries, not frames alone. Working knowledge of InDesign and Illustrator for print and large-format work.\n\nWillingness to master Google Slides. Presentations are a primary sales instrument.\n\nExperience making complex or technical subject matter legible, in any field - engineering, science, medicine, infrastructure or defence.\n\nEligibility to gain UK security clearance\n\nNice to Have\nExperience designing for defence, dual-use or engineering-led products\n\nTechnical illustration, diagramming or 3D\n\nMotion design or video editing\n\nThe nature of combat has changed.\nTomorrow’s battlefield success depends on autonomy, speed, and adaptability.\nAnd UFORCE is ready.\nAre You?","description_format":"text","description_chars":3808,"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":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United Kingdom","iso":"GB","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Cybersecurity","Military","Penetration Testing"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-27T12:55:28Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":3,"expected_fill_days":45,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-31T05:58:55Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/uforce-art-director","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/uforce-art-director.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T03:05:18Z","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":4752,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"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":1922281},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=1922281"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fuforce-art-director"},{"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%2Fuforce-art-director"},{"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%2Fuforce-art-director"},{"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/uforce-art-director\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fuforce-art-director"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3333805}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"uforce.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3333805},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
