VP of Business Development

Wanna join the adventure? Orbitworks is taking on an exciting new venture, building the first commercial satellite production facility in the Middle East. We are looking for an experienced executive to come onboard as our VP of Business Development, leading the team, whilst building a strong sales pipeline. There will be an initial focus on the government and defence sectors locally, but we also looking to develop into commercial sectors on a global scale. This leadership role demands a blend of strategic vision, customer engagement, and market expertise to ensure Orbitworks meets its ambitious goals. You’ll take a hands-on approach to leading our Business Development & Sales team, with 2 direct reports, so having existing leadership experience is essential. With your extensive network you’ll hit the ground running, opening doors and closing deals with governments, MoDs and defence contractors across the Middle East region, including in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE to name a few. You’ll play a pivotal role in positioning Orbitworks as a leader in satellite manufacturing and operations in the UAE and beyond.
