  • Procurement Management : Lead the preparation and submission of compliant, compelling proposals in response to public procurement opportunities.
  • Post-Procurement Coordination : Collaborate with project delivery, customer success, and technical teams to ensure smooth implementation and ongoing customer satisfaction.
  • Relationship Building : Cultivate strong relationships with key government decision-makers, influencers, and stakeholders.
  • Market Intelligence : Monitor public sector trends, procurement cycles, and competitor activities to stay informed and maintain a competitive edge.

Qualifications

  • Extensive Experience : Minimum of 10 years of experience selling identification solutions or similar software solutions to government clients.
  • Public Procurement Expertise : Proven experience navigating public procurement processes, including RFPs, tenders, and contract negotiations.
  • Industry Knowledge : Deep understanding of identification systems, biometric technologies, or related solutions, including ID issuance, is preferred.
  • Sales Skills : Strong consultative selling skills with a proven track record of closing high-value deals in complex sales environments.
  • Relationship Management : Established network of contacts within government agencies and prime contractors.
  • Team Collaboration : Ability to work effectively with multidisciplinary teams across marketing, technical, legal, and operations functions.
  • Security Clearance : Must be willing to obtain and hold security clearance.
  • Communication : Excellent presentation, negotiation, and interpersonal skills.
  • Additional Requirements

  • Willingness to travel as needed to meet with clients, attend industry events, and support sales efforts.
  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong track record in achieving sales quota.
  • If you are a driven and experienced sales professional looking for a challenging yet rewarding opportunity to make a significant impact in the government and identity solutions sector, we encourage you to apply!
