The Opportunity: Break Into the Lucrative World of GovTech Sales!!
Are you looking to transition your sales skills into a high-stakes, high-reward industry? The U.S. Federal Government is the largest buyer of technology in the world. Learning how to navigate this space is a golden ticket for your tech sales career.
As a Federal Business Development Representative, you won’t just be dialing a list; you will become a strategic market scout. You will map complex federal agencies, identify key decision-makers, and pave the way for massive enterprise deals.
Based in our high-energy Draper, Utah office, you’ll work side-by-side with seasoned Federal Account Executives, giving you front-row mentorship on how multi-million dollar public sector deals are won.
Why Join Us?
Clear Career Trajectory: We view this role as a pipeline for our future Federal Account Executives.
Mentorship Culture: Directly collaborate with senior leaders who have successfully navigated the federal sales landscape for decades.
Collaborative Office Environment: Located in the heart of Utah's Silicon Slopes, our Draper office is designed for high-energy collaboration, continuous learning, and team success.
What You Will Learn (And Why It Makes You Invaluable):
You don't need to be a government expert on day one-we will teach you the ropes. In this role, you will get a masterclass in GovTech sales, including:
How to navigate federal procurement and contract vehicles (the mechanisms the government uses to buy tech).
How to use industry-leading market intelligence platforms to track government spending and find deals before they happen.
How to align technology solutions with major federal IT mandates (like cybersecurity and cloud modernization).
This posting is for an existing vacancy.
