[job_card.job_description]

The Head of Strategic Communications is responsible for driving the narrative of Aevum, ensuring consistency, discipline, and accuracy across all communications to investors, customers, government stakeholders, partners, and select media.

This role is not about generating mass attention. It is about ensuring that the right people, those with direct impact on Aevum’s mission, have a clear, accurate understanding of who we are, what we’re building, and why it matters.

This role will act as the architect of Aevum’s public narrative , qualifying potential investors, managing all investor-facing communications, and owning the creation and curation of marketing materials, including pitch decks, investor updates, press releases, and strategic messaging frameworks.

You will report directly to the the Founder & CEO to translate Aevum’s mission into clear, precise, and resonant communications that elevate trust, drive alignment, and attract mission-aligned stakeholders.

The Head of Strategic Communications will know when to engage publicly, and equally important, when strategic silence is the right choice. This role ensures that Aevum’s framing remains precise, sober, and mission-aligned at all times.

Key Responsibilities

  • Drive the Aevum story across divisions (Aevum Aviation, Aevum Space & Defense, Aevum Humanitarian Aid) with consistency and accuracy.
  • Ensure all internal and external messaging reinforces mission clarity and sovereignty.
  • Establish communication guardrails to prevent narrative drift.
  • Apply discernment on when to publish and when to remain silent as part of strategic communications.

Investor & Stakeholder Communications

  • Own all investor-facing materials : pitch decks, due diligence packages, quarterly updates, and briefing notes.
  • Qualify potential investors and filter engagement to ensure alignment with Aevum’s mission, ethics, and sovereignty.
  • Manage stakeholder communications across government, defense, and corporate partners with discretion and precision.
  • Marketing & Messaging Assets

  • Maintain a library of strategic communications materials (investor decks, capability briefs, strategic summaries).
  • Oversee the production and refinement of collateral to ensure accuracy and consistency with Aevum’s values.
  • Partner with operations and engineering teams to align technical accuracy with external messaging.
  • Media & Public Relations

  • Engage selectively with targeted media and industry analysts to reinforce credibility, not hype.
  • Draft and approve press releases and external statements, ensuring all public positioning is precise, sober, and aligned.
  • Build trusted relationships with key external stakeholders who matter most to Aevum’s long-term mission.
  • Strategic Support to Founder

  • Prepare Founder and executives with talking points and briefing documents for investor, partner, and government engagements.
  • Serve as the narrative filter, ensuring the Founder’s rare public presence is always consistent, impactful, and mission-aligned.
  • Support the Founder in protecting Aevum’s narrative sovereignty across external environments.
  • Qualifications

  • 8+ years in strategic communications, investor relations, corporate affairs, or executive communications.
  • Exceptional design and storytelling skills for investor-facing decks and materials.
  • Demonstrated success owning investor materials (pitch decks, updates, strategic communications) with a focus on accuracy and company values.
  • Bachelor's degree in communications, public policy, business, or related field required.
  • Demonstrated experience with deep-tech, aerospace, defense, or highly regulated industries strongly preferred.
  • Proven track record developing high-stakes communications frameworks for investors, boards, or government stakeholders.
  • Proven experience supporting or working closely with C-suite leaders, investors, or government officials.
  • High strategic judgment : knows when to engage, what to say, and when silence is aligned.
  • Ability to filter, qualify, and manage investor and stakeholder relationships.
  • High situational awareness; quick study with discretion in handling sensitive information.
  • Ability to operate independently, anticipate needs, and make decisions under pressure.
  • Additional Qualifications

  • Flexibility for irregular hours and fast-changing priorities.
  • Must be able to travel domestically and internationally as required.
  • Eligible and willingness to obtain U.S. security clearance if required.
  • This is a rare opportunity to join Aevum’s inner circle as Head of Strategic Communications. In this senior role, you’ll work directly with the Founder & CEO to drive strategic priorities and represent Aevum across investors, partners, and elite institutions. As a trusted advisor and gatekeeper, you will receive competitive compensation, performance incentives, and rare access to stock options in Aevum.
