We are breaking the boundaries and pushing our commitment to the EVTOL world by changing the way the world travels. Our mission is powered by pioneers and progress is our prerogative.

Here at Vertical, we are developing the UK’s first fully electric, vertical take-off and landing aircraft (eVTOL), the VX4. With zero-operating emissions. Vertical is transforming the way people travel by offering a faster, safer, and greener way to move.

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

Email, inbox and diary management
Managing and coordinating meeting rooms
Minute taking in meetings
Scheduling offsite events / meetings with venues
Arranging travel and over-night accommodation
Processing invoices, purchase orders and expenses

We are looking for people who have the following skills, experience and qualifications:

A good level of understanding when it comes to processing invoices, payments and expenses
Excellent organisation, time management and communication skills
The ability to challenge and influence without authority
Pro-active attitude and mindset
Comfortable communicating across all levels (from individual contributor, manager and up to executive)

Why work with us?

Our overall approach to reward seeks to offer competitive packages that attract the diverse and talented people we need to achieve our ambitious objectives.

We want to support all employees to deliver their roles to the best possible standard by offering an additional level of flexibility between our sites and home where suitable for your role. Typically, this is agreed with your team, ensuring there are times for collaboration on site and work from home as appropriate.
