What You'll Do
Positioned at the crossroads of sales, marketing, and product, you'll equip our commercial team with world-class collateral (customer-facing materials/sales assets) and keep every deal advancing on schedule.
- Build customer-facing collateral – own first drafts of pitch decks, technical briefs, RFP responses, tenders, feasibility studies, ROI models, and case studies.
- Contract support – assemble redlines, track versions, coordinate with Legal and Finance to keep MSAs, SOWs, NDAs, and POs moving on schedule.
- Sales operations – update CRM, maintain content library, and ensure the latest slide, spec sheet, or pricing model is always at the team’s fingertips.
- Customer communication & calls – join and lead prospect and customer calls throughout the sales cycle (often hundreds per engagement); draft crisp emails, schedule meetings, and represent AeroVect with impeccable judgment so every next step is crystal-clear.
- Project-manage long sales cycles – help manage timelines for customer engagements, chase internal reviews, and surface bottlenecks before they cost us a quarter.
What Makes You a Fit
- 1-3 years in management consulting or investment banking.
- World-class at PowerPoint and Excel; you build models and slides at break-neck speed with zero typos
- Not afraid to speak up and stand firm to keep fellow team members on track and accountable to timelines
- Solid grasp of contract structures and sophisticated contract / legal intuition
- Ruthless attention to detail and ability to track 15 open items simultaneously
- Bias for action; you ship the draft while others are still discussing the outline and you track 15 open items simultaneously
- Clear, concise written and verbal communication
- Passion for aviation and enterprise sales
- Familiarity with CRM hygiene and sales-enablement tooling.
New York City is preferred; exceptional remote candidates (US time zones) considered.
