  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to oversee implementation, activation, and ongoing service performance.
  • Ensure high customer satisfaction, renewal, and upsell opportunities.
  • Market Intelligence & Competitive Analysis

  • Strong analytical and organizational abilities, with a solution-oriented approach.
  • Familiarity with mobility technologies such as satellite TV (e.g., Ku / Ka-band), IP content delivery, and in-transit entertainment platforms.
  • Experience working with or within regulated industries (e.g., aviation, maritime, government contracting) is highly desirable.
  • Preferred Industry Experience

  • Commercial and business aviation (airlines, charter operators, OEMs).
  • Maritime (passenger cruise lines, cargo, oil & gas fleets).
  • Long-haul trucking and telematics.
  • Government and military contracting (DoD, DHS, federal integrators).
