We are a hypersonic transportation startup focused on doing what people once thought was impossible. We are a great combination of tech and teams whose work is more than just a job. You’ll help our ambitious, high-functioning leaders develop and achieve a mission that will change the world.

Be a dynamo (without apologizing for it).

In this critical support position, take as much authority as you can handle. Get to know our teams, understand their leaders, and help our C-level executives guide them, support them, and lead them to success. As the secret weapon/ear-to-the-ground observer/administrative partner to a CEO and CTO, you’ll make the paperwork flow, keep the calendar moving, and convey a meet-our-deadlines momentum.

Psst… In past jobs, you may have had to hide that you’re one of the smartest, most capable people in the room because no one “appreciates” superior traits in an admin. Well, don’t worry about hiding your brilliance and ability at Venus — we want you to shine.

Venus Aerospace is a special place – seriously – but let’s not pretend about this: We’ve got expense reports to file, travel reservations to make, meetings to coordinate, spreadsheets to create, deliverables to track, presentations to proofread, and follow-up emails to send, just like any other serious company. The thing is, when you do all that here, working alongside our extremely experienced leaders, your role has more meaning than being “just” an executive admin in a corporation. You’ll be part of a historic race to create one-hour global space flight for everyone. That’s. What. You’ll. Do.

Trust us on this: No one appreciates a frictionless environment more than space experts. And you already know how to minimize resistance – by managing your leader, making things happen, and encouraging others to meet tight deadlines. In fact, in your current role, no one quite knows how you stay so incredibly organized and deal with so many personalities. Of course, your diplomacy skills, calm demeanor, and ability to manage confidentiality are top-notch, too.

You won’t have to wait for the annual holiday party to chat up Venus’ top leaders. In this role, they’ll be part of your workday. You’ll be taken into their confidence, entrusted with vital information, and given a wide range of important matters to handle. And you’ll make decisions based on that knowledge without direct supervision. Metaphorically, you’re the producer who arranges everything the lead actor needs to move the story forward at a fast pace.

Venus Aerospace employee benefits include a 401(k) plan, stock options, and medical benefits, including dental and vision. We have a 9/80 flexible schedule, have unlimited PTO, and receive professional development opportunities.

This role is based on-site at Ellington Field in Houston, Texas.

We’ve done the professional grind, and we’ve got a better approach. If that appeals to you, we’d love to connect!
