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. Neutron will be our next rocket on the launch pad, an advanced 13-tonne payload class, reusable rocket to launch the mega constellations of the future. Our space systems business includes our extensive line of satellites and components that have enabled more than 1,700 missions including the James Webb Space Telescope, NASA Psyche Mission, Artemis I, Mars Ingenuity helicopter, and more.

  • Lead, mentor, and support the staff within the WCC department to be motivated, effective and efficient in their roles while provide opportunities for growth and development
  • Ensure direct reports understand their role and responsibilities and receive timely feedback on their performance, both formal and informal
  • Implementation of manufacturing and business processes to optimize operations
  • Take ownership/responsibility for WCC facility output and quality

YOU'LL BRING THESE QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Strong knowledge and applied experiences in both and R&D environment and lean manufacturing
  • 8 + years' manufacturing experience in aerospace or a closely related industry, such as launch vehicles, aircraft, helicopters, automotive or boat-building
  • Demonstrated experience in leading teams in fast paced environments
  • Demonstrated experience leading teams through change management initiatives that influence culture, define tools & processes and improve competencies
  • Demonstrated experience in composites design and/or manufacturing
  • Highly effective and professional verbal and written communication skills with the team, internal customers and suppliers that includes a strong focus on teamwork and internal/external customer satisfaction
  • Demonstrated ability to work cross functionally within a geographically disperse and diverse organisation

  • Composite manufacturing in prepregs and Infusion
  • CNC machining
  • Composite curing autoclaves
  • Composite material handling and cutting machinery
  • General facility and civil construction
  • Domestic and global logistics

This role is based in Warkworth, Auckland. Apply now to be considered for this position

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.
