About The Position

REGENT is seeking a Commercial Business Development Analyst to join its Sales & Marketing team and support the commercial launch of its Seaglider coastal transportation craft. The role combines financial modeling and business-case development with the creation of polished materials and external representation of REGENT at industry events and speaking engagements. The analyst will help airlines, operators, and ecosystem partners evaluate commercial opportunities and communicate REGENT’s commercial story to external audiences.

The position involves frequent movement between fast-turnaround internal deliverables and external-facing work, collaborating with colleagues across data, sales, ecosystems, and marketing. Projects may be ambiguous and require independent structure and judgment, with many deliverables due within days. More than half of the work is expected to involve modeling. The position is fully on-site in Rhode Island.

• Expertise in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, PowerPoint, and Word, and the ability to produce polished, presentation-ready materials quickly.
• Experience building financial models and business-case forecasts, such as cost models or P&L analyses.
• Ability to turn quantitative information into a clear commercial narrative.
• Ability to present technical information clearly to technical and non-technical audiences and collaborate across teams.
• Working familiarity with Python and AI tools, with interest in developing these skills further.
• Ability to manage shifting priorities and multiple tasks while staying organized and clear-headed in a fast-paced environment.
• Experience representing a company at events, conferences, or speaking engagements and comfort addressing external audiences.
• Strong interpersonal skills and professional polish in internal and external settings.

• Collaborate with sales, marketing, commercial, data, and ecosystem teammates, helping technical and commercial teams communicate effectively.
• Support the sales team and maintain and use CRM tools such as Pipedrive to organize commercial pipeline and partner relationships.
• Use familiarity with Python and AI tools in commercial analysis and help the team explore ways to improve its workflows.
