About the company:

BETA Technologies is creating an electric transportation ecosystem that’s safe, reliable and sustainable. A relentlessly focused team is building an extensive charging infrastructure and ALIA, the world’s most technologically advanced electric vertical aircraft (EVA).

BETA’s platform and products are strikingly simple. Prioritization of safety and a pragmatic approach to certification drive elegant redundancy, appropriate diversity of implementation and simplicity of control. ALIA’s fixed-pitch propellers and centrally located batteries make it an inherently stable aircraft that is safe to fly and easy to maneuver.

At BETA Technologies, we apply our intellectual curiosity, passion for aviation, and commitment to sustainability toward a shared mission of revolutionizing electric aviation. Regardless of the position one holds, each team member brings their talent and desire to positively impact the environment and lives of others in a refreshing, vibrant, and inclusive culture.

The Global Commercial Strategy Manager will play a key role in shaping and executing BETA’s globalization strategy for commercial aircraft and services. This role sits at the intersection of international market strategy, commercial execution, operations planning, and regulatory complexity, helping define how BETA expands beyond its initial markets and scales globally.

This role will partner closely with Commercial Aircraft Sales, Strategy, Finance & Accounting, Operations, Manufacturing, and Regulatory Affairs to support initiatives including international aircraft delivery and logistics, regional manufacturing and industrialization strategies, international market entry, global maintenance and support infrastructure, government incentive strategies, and regional go-to-market execution. The role will report to the Head of Strategy & Business Development on the Commercial Aircraft Sales team.
