Vice President of Business Development

Acclaim Technical Services (ATS), founded in 2000, delivers tech-enabled solutions and operational support to U.S. Federal agencies. We’re an ESOP company, which means every employee is also an owner — and that shared investment shows up in our culture and in our results. ATS is consistently recognized as a top workplace in the DC area and continues to grow in the missions that matter most.

We’re looking for a Vice President of Business Development w/ TS/SCI w/ Poly to lead and grow our IC pipeline out of Hanover, MD. Reporting to the SVP for Business Development, this role is ideal for a seasoned BD leader who wants true ownership — of a customer, of the number, and of the outcome. You’ll build the relationships that drive the pipeline and lead the pursuits that win it.

Responsibilities:

• Own the pipeline for a key IC customer — qualifying, shaping, and moving opportunities through gate reviews while driving overall growth

• Build and maintain senior-level relationships across government, partners, and competitors to position ATS early and ahead of the RFP

• Lead capture on high-priority pursuits — developing win strategies, teaming approaches, competitive assessments, solutioning, and black-hat/pricing-to-win decisions

• Translate customer mission needs into clear, differentiated solutions in close partnership with technical SMEs

• Provide hands-on leadership for major proposals — from strategy and storyboard through submission — ensuring the capture plan and solution is applied

What you bring:

• 10+ years of federal BD and capture experience with a strong track record of qualifying pipeline and winning new business

• Established Intelligence Community relationships and the credibility to engage at senior levels

• Direct experience leading capture and stepping in to run strategic proposals when needed

• A background in shaping technical solutions with SMEs on complex pursuits

• Active TS/SCI clearance; current customer badge access strongly preferred

• Shipley capture certification or equivalent

• Bachelor’s degree in business, a technical field, or similar

• Flexibility to work non-standard hours when pursuits demand it
