Company Description

TTP is an employee-owned technology and product development consultancy, with a 40-year track record of helping ambitious clients solve complex technical challenges and bring innovative, commercially successful solutions to market.

We invent, design, and manufacture impactful products and technologies across a wide range of industries – including healthcare, life science, energy, and communications – and at the intersection of biology, physical science and engineering.

Our working culture encourages entrepreneurship, shared ideas and technical collaboration, while providing you with the freedom to do your best work.

Job Description

Satellite communications is evolving rapidly. Advances in Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN), software-defined payloads, smart antennas and increasingly capable user terminals are transforming how people and devices connect around the world. At TTP, we help ambitious organisations develop the commercially successful technologies that make these advances possible.

We’re looking for an experienced, collaborative Global Business Development Lead to join our Satellite and Space team.

This is a highly entrepreneurial role - you’ll own the commercial responsibility for developing strategic global relationships, both new and existing, with a broad range of clients in the satellite, space and communications arena. Working alongside world-class engineers and scientists, you’ll identify, develop and maintain valuable commercial partnerships and build a long-term sales pipeline based on deep customer relationships.

The team has grown substantially in recent years, creating innovative, commercially valuable wireless communications technology for ambitious customers. We have a strong track heritage in integrated terminal development for challenging applications such as low SWaP-C satellite communications, 5G Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) and broadband for aircraft. We also have a strong track record in satellite payload development and smart antennas. If you want to learn more about what the team do, you can read more here:

  • Inform the team's strategy and shape our business development activities by maintaining a deep understanding of our capabilities, the competitive landscape, and market trends.
  • Represent TTP externally by building both the TTP brand and your own trusted professional profile through industry engagement, networking and thought leadership.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
