About the role

Original posting from Aerovect via Ashby

WHO WE ARE

AeroVect is transforming ground handling with autonomy, redefining how airlines and ground service providers around the globe run day-to-day operations. We are a Series A company backed by top-tier venture capital investors in aviation and autonomous driving. Our customers include some of the world’s largest airlines and ground handling providers. For more information, visit www.aerovect.com http://www.aerovect.com.

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.
