Offset Business Development Director – Driving Strategic Growth in Global Defense Markets

Are you a strategic leader with deep expertise in offsets and defense procurement? Do you want to shape GomSpace’s role as a trusted partner for defense primes and governments worldwide?

As our Offset Business Development Director, you will take ownership of driving our growth in the offset segment by identifying, developing, and securing key opportunities and partnerships. You will build a global network of defense primes and governmental stakeholders, helping them meet their offset obligations using GomSpace’s portfolio of innovative products and solutions.

This is a role where strategic insight, relationship-building, and execution come together to create real impact in complex and dynamic markets.

Your Role and Responsibilities
In this role, you will lead, and coordinate business development activities related to offsets, acting as the go-to expert internally and externally. You will translate national offset policies and political objectives into actionable business strategies and drive collaboration across internal teams to align resources and priorities.

Your tasks will include:

• Leading the development and implementation of offset and industrial cooperation strategies that support long-term growth.
• Building and maintaining strong relationships with defense primes, governments, institutions, and political stakeholders in target markets.
• Translating national policies and political targets into meaningful offset projects that gain governmental traction.
• Developing and executing capture strategies for RFPs and offset financing aligned with GomSpace’s commercial goals.
• Collaborating closely with product, engineering, and business development teams to tailor offerings and create competitive advantage.
  

What We Are Looking For
We are looking for a results-oriented, strategic thinker who thrives in complex defense environments and can navigate diverse stakeholder landscapes with diplomacy and influence.

You will bring:

• Proven experience in defense or space business development, especially with offsets and government procurement processes.
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and stakeholder management skills, with a strong customer and value proposition focus.
• An established network within defense primes and governmental organizations, ideally across multiple regions.
• Sufficient technical understanding to align customer needs with GomSpace’s portfolio of solutions.
• Fluency in English; additional language skills such as Spanish or Arabic are a strong advantage.

Are you ready to leverage your expertise to grow GomSpace’s business and strengthen our position as a partner of choice in the global defense ecosystem? We’d love to hear from you.

Why Join Us?
As Offset Business Development Director, you’ll not only grow our business – you’ll shape the way GomSpace engages with the world’s most strategic players. You’ll operate on a high-impact level, developing offset strategies that fuel technological advancement and build sovereign capabilities across key markets.

We offer an international, mission-driven environment where innovation, purpose, and execution go hand in hand. You’ll collaborate with experts across the company – from BD and engineering to solutions and strategy – to create offset offerings that deliver real, measurable impact.
