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.\nAbout the Role\nWe're hiring an M&A / Corporate Development Analyst to join UFORCE's Corporate Development team - the team running strategy, deal execution, M&A sourcing, country builds, fundraising, investor relations, and board reporting across the business. This is an in-house corporate development role at a fast-moving defence startup, not client-facing advisory: you'll provide strong junior-level support across all of the team's workstreams so senior team members can focus on deal execution and strategic decisions.\nYou'll take a brief and deliver - supporting sector mapping, M&A research and pipeline management, deal and workstream coordination, and investor and board materials - with your output feeding directly into work for senior leadership. This role is based in London. We're not looking for a finished product: we want someone sharp, organized, and genuinely excited about the mission, who we can develop quickly into a core part of the team.\nWhat you will do\nOwn sector mapping - research, company profiles, and sourcing within defined sectors - building it into the team's living reference for deal sourcing and investor conversations.\n\nSurface and assess M&A targets (ownership, revenue, acquirability), and own the pipeline board and target tracker, keeping it updated without prompting.\n\nSupport active acquisitions, joint ventures, and partnerships - coordinating due diligence across legal, finance, and other stakeholders, and organizing company introductions for technical evaluation.\n\nOwn the team's action log and cross-department follow-up, helping run the team's day-to-day operating rhythm.\n\nSupport board deck preparation, investor materials, and quarterly board reporting.\n\nWhat we're looking for\nFinancial modelling - comps, basic DCF, sensitivity analysis.\n\nPrior M&A, VC, or corporate development exposure.\n\nExperience coordinating a data room or multi-party workstream.\n\nIndependent research and sourcing skills - can find real companies, structure a landscape, and assess opportunities across multiple sectors without being directed.\n\nStrong ownership and organization - tracks what's in flight, follows up proactively, and flags blockers before they become problems.\n\nCross-department coordination experience - comfortable keeping legal, finance, technical, and other stakeholders aligned on behalf of a team.\n\nDirect, plain communication - writes and speaks clearly, and delivers real conclusions rather than hedged or consulting-style language.\n\nGenuine interest in the company's mission, not just the role.\n\nAround 1 year into your career - junior enough to want to own execution work, experienced enough to operate without handholding.\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":3420,"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":"2026-10-15T15:31:47Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":10,"expected_fill_days":52,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-26T05:57:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/uforce-corporate-development-analyst","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/uforce-corporate-development-analyst.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-26T23:40:26Z","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":32409,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-27T00:00:00Z"}},"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-corporate-development-analyst"},{"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-corporate-development-analyst"},{"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-corporate-development-analyst"},{"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-corporate-development-analyst\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fuforce-corporate-development-analyst"}]}
