Marketing and Communication Specialist - Space Enthusiast

Are you passionate about marketing, communication, and the vast possibilities of space exploration and science? Did you ever wonder whether there is life beyond Earth? We are seeking a talented and experienced Marketing and Communication Specialist to join our dynamic team and lead the communication activities of the LIFE space mission.

Project background

The LIFE space mission

Until 1995, the eight planets orbiting around our Sun were the only planets known to us. However, over the last 30 years, the scientific community has discovered almost 6000 planets orbiting around other stars in our cosmic neighborhood allowing us to unravel the diversity of other worlds. But despite impressive progress in the field, one of the long-term goals of exoplanet science, that is the detection and characterization of dozens of exoplanets similar to Earth, is out of reach for the current generation of instruments. Only dedicated space missions will be powerful enough to address this goal. The most promising mission is the Large Interferometer For Exoplanets (LIFE). LIFE will detect and investigate hundreds of exoplanets, including a large sample of Earth-like objects. Impressively, LIFE will be able to measure atmospheric absorption bands in these other worlds, with a specific focus on molecules that are only present because of biological activity (such as oxygen in our Earth’s atmosphere). In other words: the goal of LIFE is to search for life on distant planets outside our Solar System

Originating from ETH Zurich in Switzerland, the LIFE project has supporters and contributors worldwide with the goal to develop and implement the mission on an ambitious timescale and beyond the standard processes of (inter)national space agencies. To effectively and successfully engage with partners and donors, it’s time to shift gears and ensure that LIFE gets the professional marketing and communication strategy it needs.

Job Description:
  • Interface with external agencies to develop a sound branding and communication strategy for the LIFE space mission
  • Execute the communication strategy by creating and maintaining compelling content for the identified communication channels, including social media, website, press releases, slide decks, and newsletter
  • Proactively adapt the communication strategy as necessary as the mission progresses
  • Interface with all internal and external stakeholders (e.g., industry and academic partners, media, public) on all matters related to marketing and communication of the mission
  • Advise the mission leadership team on all matters related to marketing and communication of the mission
  • Plan and oversee (participation in) events such as conferences, exhibitions, and outreach programs
  • Analyze marketing performance metrics and optimize campaigns to ensure maximum reach and impact
  • Collaborate with other LIFE team members, including engineers and scientists, to translate complex scientific or technical concepts into clear, engaging messages
What we are looking for:
  • Experience: Ideally 2–5 years in marketing, communication, or a related field, with a proven track record of successful campaigns
  • Education: A degree in marketing, communication, public relations, or a related discipline
  • Passion for space: A strong interest in space exploration, technology, or science communication is essential
  • Skills: Exceptional writing and storytelling abilities, with an eye for detail and creativity. High proficiency in English is a must
  • Tech savvy: Proficiency in digital marketing tools, social media platforms, and relevant software
  • Team player: Excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with diverse teams
  • Adaptability: Comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving environment with tight deadlines
We offer:
  • An agile and innovative team that pioneers new ways of developing and implementing one of the most ambitious space missions of humankind
  • Work on a high-impact project with a global audience
  • Career development while making a meaningful contribution to one of the most fundamental questions ever asked

Ready to take your marketing and communication skills out of this world? We look forward to discovering how your expertise and passion align with our mission
