Description
ABOUT ROCKET LAB
Rocket Lab is a global leader in launch and space systems. The rockets and satellites we build and launch enable some of the most ambitious and vital space missions globally, supporting scientific exploration, Earth observation and missions to combat climate change, national security, and exciting new technology demonstrations. Our Electron rocket has provided reliable access to orbit since 2018, becoming one of the most frequently launched rockets in the world.

Join our pioneering team and launch your career to new heights
COMMUNICATIONS MANAGER
Reporting to the Sr Director of Communications, the Senior Communications Manager will play a key role in sharing the Rocket Lab story globally and within our own team. We've already achieved so much as the world's leading small satellite launch company, but we're just getting started. The Communications team is at the forefront of Rocket Lab's most exciting next steps, including our interplanetary missions to the Moon, Mars, and Venus, and the development of our new larger Neutron rocket.
Your days will be filled with hosting media tours of our launch sites and rocket factories, working with our customers to develop content about their upcoming missions, engaging with our social communities, collaborating with our video team on shoots, building relationships with media, and so much more.
If you're a great writer, have a nose for news, get a kick out of collaborating with a diverse and talented bunch of people, and want to help spread the word about the incredible possibilities of space, we want to hear from you.
Based in our Long Beach Headquarters, you'll be collaborating with our global team spread across Virginia, Colorado, New Mexico, Maryland, Toronto, and New Zealand (with opportunities for travel to each location, of course).
WHAT YOU'LL GET TO DO:
YOU'LL BRING THESE QUALICATIONS:
THESE QUALIFICATIONS WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE:
The expected salary range for the position is displayed in accordance with the California Equal Pay for Equal Work Act. Final agreed upon compensation is based upon individual qualifications and experience.
Base salary is only one part of Rocket Lab's compensation package for this role. You may be eligible for company stock, stock options, or cash incentives, and can purchase discounted stock through Rocket Lab's Employee Stock Purchase Program. Employee benefits may also include medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage; 401(k) retirement plan options; paid vacation, holidays, and sick leave; paid parental leave; and other discounts and perks.
WHAT TO EXPECT
We're on a mission to unlock the potential of space to improve life on Earth, but that's not an easy task. It takes hard work, determination, relentless innovation, teamwork, grit, and an unwavering commitment to achieving what others often deem impossible. Our people out-think, out-work and out-pace. We pride ourselves on having each other's backs, checking our egos at the door, and rolling up our sleeves on all tasks big and small. We thrive under pressure, work to tight deadlines, and our focus is always on how we can deliver, rather than dwelling on the challenges that stand in the way.
