So, if your prepared to soar to new heights and create significant advancements, the future you’ve envisioned is ready and waiting with us.

This role is a great fit for someone who thrives in an environment where they can establish a thorough understanding of current core organizational capabilities and performance history to leverage those into broader opportunities. In this instance, you would target federal civil (eg NASA), commercial (low earth orbit), and DoD space markets for growth and expansion. You will also operate within the Aerospace & Defense Technologies (Adtech) Segment marketing and business development framework including the management of Space Systems Customer Relationship Management (CRM) pipeline opportunities, associated business planning metrics, and future organizational growth projections.

Qualifications:

o    7 years in the aerospace industry. Required background is in engineering or program management. Supply chain management roles are acceptable, especially if operating as a hardware buyer within a prime.
o    3 years supporting business development activities, such as proposal writing, capture management, pipeline development, etc. (Note: I intend this to mean that they probably supported BD while they were a PM or technical person, not that they have three years fully focused on these things)
o    Demonstrated experience building relationships with key decision makers within the aerospace industry (Note: this doesn’t have to be in the context of BD. It could be building relationships upwards at a customer, networking for jobs, being on an industry board, etc.)
