  • Relationship Building: Establishing trusted partnerships with senior decision-makers, positioning the company as a preferred supplier in the government sector.
  • Market Representation: Representing the company at key industry events, effectively communicating its value proposition, and ensuring alignment with evolving sector needs.
  • Pipeline Ownership: Managing complex, long sales cycles, from initial engagement to successful contract negotiation and delivery.

  • Sales Acumen: Demonstrable success managing long sales cycles within the public sector, ideally selling advanced technology or engineering solutions.
  • Regulatory Knowledge: Familiarity with compliance frameworks and security protocols, including classified and unclassified information environments.
  • Customer Focus: Ability to adapt messaging to diverse audiences, from technical teams to senior government officials.
  • Relationship Management: A strong track record of building and maintaining strategic partnerships across multiple stakeholders.
  • Communication Skills: Exceptional written and verbal skills, capable of drafting compelling proposals and influencing at all levels.
  • Flexibility: Willingness to travel domestically and internationally as required.
