As our VP, Business Development – EMEA at Loft, you will lead the creation and execution of high-value, multi-year commercial and institutional sales across Europe. This role is designed for a seasoned business development leader in the space sector, combined with a proven ability to engage European institutional stakeholders and close complex, high-stakes deals.

You will operate at the intersection of commercial growth and strategic customer engagement, working directly with executive leadership at partner companies, agencies, and institutional customers. You will manage Loft’s entire EMEA sales engine—driving revenue across commercial and institutional accounts, embedding Loft’s infrastructure into long-term programs, shaping strategic partnerships, negotiating key commercial agreements, and supporting joint ventures or investment-driven opportunities.

*Research shows that while men apply to jobs where they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other underrepresented people tend to only apply when they meet 100% of the qualifications. At Loft, we value respectful debate and people who aren’t afraid to challenge assumptions. We strongly encourage you to apply, even if you don’t check all the boxes.

Loft: Space Made Simple.

Founded in 2017, Loft provides governments, companies, and research institutions with a fast, reliable, and simple way to deploy missions in orbit.
