your role: execution and strategy

You will manage a portfolio of high-impact development projects funded by authorities such as the European Space Agency (ESA) and Innovationsfonden. This is not just about internal management; you will lead international consortiums of universities and industry partners to ensure successful delivery.

- RFI/RFP Management: Drive pre-sales processes (typically 3-8 weeks), coordinating inputs from specialists to meet customer needs.
- Roadmap Alignment: Ensure funding activities align with GomSpace’s technology roadmap to secure long-term learning benefits for the organization.

what you bring

You are a senior profile who stays calm under pressure and possesses the diplomatic drive needed to push stakeholders while maintaining strong relationships.

- A background in engineering, preferably within Electrical Engineering or a related technical field.
- 5–10+ years of proven technical project management experience.
- Experience with funding projects (ESA/EU) and bid/proposal phases is an advantage.
- Strong financial/reporting flair and fluency in written and verbal English.
- You are open-minded, proactive, resilient, and structured. You enjoy "building the ship while sailing" and can turn innovation into concrete deliverables.
