Enterprise Sales Account Manager - State & Local Government

Adobe is hiring an Account Director to grow our State and Local Government business across a multi-state territory, and will own it end to end: building pipeline, running deals, and developing the senior relationships that advance public sector business. This is a high-impact role for a resilient, self-directed seller who is energized by complex problems and by working with mission-driven government customers.

• Find, qualify, and pursue new opportunities to build pipeline across your named accounts
• Build target account strategies and territory penetration plans
• Own your number and grow your territory
• Keep an accurate forecast and a clear read on your pipeline

• Run discovery that connects an agency's challenges to constituent and program outcomes, then build the value case
• Drive complex, multi-stakeholder deals from qualification to close
• Coordinate pre-sales, specialists, and partners at the right stage of each deal

• Earn trusted-advisor relationships with senior agency leaders through credibility, not title
• Work with system integrators and partners to get Adobe into programs earlier and more often

• A track record of building pipeline, closing complex enterprise deals in open territory, and hitting your number
• 3+ years of field sales experience
• A resourceful, proactive approach: you find creative ways to reach prospects, you own your own success with little hand-holding until deals are qualified, and you bring real drive and persistence
• Experience selling into State and Local Government; exposure to Health and Human Services or other mission-driven agencies is a plus
• The ability to connect technology to program outcomes like constituent engagement, service delivery, and efficiency
• Familiarity with the competitive landscape in government digital experience
• Experience working with partners and system integrators in enterprise cycles
• Comfort selling across program, technical, and executive stakeholders
• Credibility and presence with senior government executives
• Willingness to be in the field across the region (roughly 50% travel). This is a relationship business and you will build it in person
• Experience selling high-value, long-lead enterprise software ($500K+)
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
