About the Role

The Company is seeking an Executive Director of Business Development with a focus on the aerospace, defense, and space sectors. This hands-on role is pivotal in aggressively growing the A&D business segment, particularly in the precision machining, welding, and assembly industry. The successful candidate will be responsible for building and executing growth initiatives, as well as penetrating additional A&D markets.

The role demands a strategic-minded individual with a go-getter attitude, capable of shaping the long-term A&D capabilities, including planning, investments, and M&A activities. Applicants must have a minimum of 10 years of demonstrated business development experience in the A&D industry, specifically for mechanical systems or machining. The role requires a professional with strong business acumen, adept at developing go-to-market strategies, identifying and winning new business, and nurturing existing relationships.
