The opportunity

With a new 10-year strategy UAL is undergoing an exciting period of change, bringing unrivalled career opportunities.

You will be an animator with a working knowledge of animation software such as Toon Boom, TV Paint and Adobe CS, and will be confident with (or willing to learn) Moodle and other digital learning platforms, such as Turnitin, Padlet & Miro. In addition to the technical expertise and digital fluency, the role requires strong communication and project management skills with the ability to enthuse and support colleagues whilst managing multiple projects effectively.
