This is typically the kind of position that shows what business development is becoming in the space industry.
@Gama is recruiting his/her future Head of Business Development.
👉 a company positioned on still emerging space infrastructures
👉 long, technical, sometimes institutional sales cycles
👉 commercial, financial and organizational issues
👉 and a role designed as a direct structuring lever
Gama is not looking for a “sales” profile in the classic sense of the term, but a builder capable of transforming an industrial ambition into business dynamics.
Someone capable of opening markets, attracting financing, and giving clarity to a deeptech company in the acceleration phase.
Concretely, it will be necessary:
- build and manage the business development function
- recruit and supervise a high-performance team
- build the commercial strategy on several product lines
- build partnerships with the right players in the space ecosystem
- manage complex sales cycles, in both B2B and B2G
- contribute to financial management, reporting and fundraising matters
- liaise with product, engineering and operations teams
- bring Gama’s presence into European and international space circles
The role is attractive on paper, much more demanding in reality.
Because it’s not just about signing contracts, but about holding together several critical functions:
- business development
- access to public funding
- strategic partnerships
- internal structuring
- long term projection
The real subject is here:
- Who knows how to sell an industrial vision that is still being built?
- Who knows how to navigate between clients, public agencies, partners and investors?
- Who knows how to make business development a scaling tool, and not just prospecting?
The position is based in Paris / Ivry-sur-Seine.
Application to be sent to careers@gamaspace.com with “Head of Business Development” in the subject line.
