Overview and Territory

The Account Executive, SLED for the East Coast is a high-impact role responsible for driving market share across the nation’s most influential public sector corridor. This expansive territory spans the entire Atlantic seaboard, from the tech hubs of New England through the Mid-Atlantic power centers, down to the rapidly growing Southeast markets.

Success requires a sophisticated navigator of the public sector: someone who can pivot between the legacy modernization needs of the North and the rapid infrastructure scaling of the South. You will drive the adoption of our solutions as the primary infrastructure for unified cybersecurity and digital citizen services across the entire public sector landscape.

Comprehensive Coastal Focus: Develop and scale relationships with executive decision-makers across:

Major Metros: New York City, Boston, Philadelphia, Washington D.C. (Regional/Local), Charlotte, Atlanta, and Miami.

State Capitols: From Augusta and Albany to Richmond, Raleigh, and Tallahassee.

Higher Ed & K-12: Ivy League institutions, major state university systems (e.g., SUNY, UNC, UF), and the nation’s largest school districts.

Strategic Positioning: Align security and identity solutions with varied regional priorities, such as:

Innovation Agendas: Supporting initiatives like NY’s Empire AI and the Southeast’s growing cybersecurity corridors.

State Resilience: Driving "Whole of State" frameworks to protect interconnected local jurisdictions.

Citizen Experience: Modernizing digital identity for secure access to state and municipal services.

Procurement Mastery: Navigate the complex web of East Coast purchasing, including NASPO ValuePoint, NY OGS, MA CommBUYS, GSA Schedule 70, and Florida’s STC.

Pipeline & Portfolio Management: Proactively hunt for net-new opportunities while managing a high-volume, fragmented territory through diligent CRM forecasting.

Presence & Travel: Maintain a consistent, visible presence across the coast, requiring frequent travel to engage with state CIOs, CISOs, and procurement leads.

Full-Spectrum SLED Expertise: Proven track record of closing complex deals using diverse state-specific contract vehicles and the formal RFP/RFQ process across multiple East Coast jurisdictions.

Funding Fluidity: Expert at identifying and capturing diverse funding streams, including state general funds, IIJA/SLTT federal grants, and university research budgets.

Multi-State Political Acumen: Ability to adapt sales strategies to the distinct legislative cycles, governance structures, and political climates found from the Northeast to the Deep South.

Academic Sector Savvy: Deep experience selling into the unique governance models of both large-scale K-12 districts and prestigious higher education systems.

Executive Presence: Comfortable engaging with C-level public sector leadership, translating technical security value into high-level policy and mission outcomes.

Entrepreneurial Drive: A high-energy "owner" of the territory who is collaborative in spirit but competitive in nature, with a relentless focus on hitting revenue and gross profit quotas.
