OVERVIEW OF ROLE
Advanced Navigation builds high-performance navigation technologies used across land, sea, air, and space for both commercial and defence applications. Our products operate in environments where failure is not an option, and our brand must communicate that standard with the same precision our engineering delivers.
We are currently rolling out a new brand look and feel globally, and we need a Graphic Designer who can be a backbone of that rollout. This role is deliberately scoped around two focus areas: presentation design and brand asset management. The work is high-volume, high-quality, and high-stakes; every deck a senior stakeholder presents, every asset a sales representative hands to a prospect, and every template a regional marketer adapts passes through this role.
This is not a generalist creative role. We are not looking for a designer who wants to stretch into motion, campaign concepting, UX, 3D, or digital advertising; we have specialists for that work. We are looking for a production craftsperson who takes genuine pride in polish, consistency, and turnaround; who finds satisfaction in well-built systems, templates, and well-managed asset libraries; and who wants to be the designer the business depends on when a critical deck needs to be perfect by close of business.
You will join a collaborative in-house creative team that values craft, precision, and commercial impact. We move quickly, but we never cut corners on quality. If you find real satisfaction in making complex technical content visually clear, in owning systems that other people rely on, and in being the person who gets the detail right every time, this is a role that will value you highly.
ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES
Presentation Design
Own the design and production of high-value presentations across the business including executive decks, sales pitch decks, investor presentations, board materials, trade event presentations, and customer-specific pursuit decks
