Management

We keep the whole project moving - timelines, budgets, partnerships and people - so the engineers can stay focused on building rockets.
The ambition is technical; making it actually happen is us.

“Responsible to the element, accountable to the mission.”

Daryl Woods

PHASE 01

Coordination

We coordinate the technical teams and keep the mission on
track - owning the project timeline, budget and resource
allocation so every department stays aligned and moving
towards the same goals. When something blocks a team, we
help unblock it fast and keep communication flowing across
the whole project.

PHASE 02

Partnerships

We build the partnerships that make the hardware possible
- signing agreements with companies for materials,
manufacturing and testing, from carbon fibre for
Aerostructures to test facilities for Propulsion. We negotiate
the terms, protect the budget and grow relationships that
support this rocket and the next ones.

PHASE 03

Sustainability & funding

We secure the project's future - organising sponsorships,
raising funding and managing relationships with university
officials, corporate partners and regulatory bodies. Handling
the strategic and administrative side is what lets the
engineers focus on engineering, and keeps THRUST
financially and operationally alive.

Want to make it happen?

Management is looking for students who like
organisation, negotiation and turning an ambitious idea
into a rocket that actually gets built.
