We are seeking an experienced Government Business Development Executive to develop and strengthen relationships with government agencies and turn our existing contract awards into active business opportunities.

This is a post-award business development and relationship-building role focused on connecting with government technology leaders and hiring managers, understanding upcoming needs, generating opportunities, and developing recurring business through our existing contract vehicles.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and maintain relationships with CIOs, CTOs, IT Directors, Program Managers, Project Managers, Hiring Managers, and other government technology stakeholders.
• Activate and grow existing State and Local Government technology contracts.
• Identify upcoming technology initiatives, projects, workforce needs, and potential requirements.
• Develop relationships within agencies, departments, divisions, and programs that can utilize our contract vehicles.
• Educate government stakeholders on our contract vehicles, capabilities, services, and available resources.
• Understand agency purchasing processes, labor categories, contract requirements, and procedures for obtaining resources.
• Identify opportunities for technology services, professional services, staff augmentation, and project-based resources within the scope of existing contracts.
• Maintain regular communication with key government contacts and develop account plans.
• Coordinate with internal Account Management, Delivery, and Recruiting teams to respond to requirements.
• Track contract activity, relationships, opportunities, requirements, submissions, interviews, placements, and revenue in the CRM.
• Identify opportunities to expand relationships into additional departments, agencies, or eligible government organizations.

Requirements

• 1+ years of experience in government technology services, public-sector business development, professional services, staffing, or staff augmentation.
• Demonstrated experience developing relationships with State and/or Local Government organizations.
• Understanding of government procurement, contract vehicles, and public-sector purchasing processes.
• Strong network-building and relationship-management skills.
• Proven ability to turn relationships into business opportunities and revenue.
• Excellent communication, presentation, networking, and follow-up skills.
• Ability to work independently while coordinating effectively with internal teams.

Preferred Experience

• State IT contracts and cooperative purchasing vehicles.
• State and Local Government technology organizations.
• IT staff augmentation or professional services contracts.
• Government vendor relationship development.
• Experience working with government agencies, higher education, public-sector healthcare, or other eligible government organizations.

Success in This Role

This is not primarily a proposal-writing or contract-capture position . The focus is on activating awarded contracts and developing the relationships needed to generate business.

Contract Award → Government Relationships → Agency Needs → Requirements → Opportunities → Engagements → Recurring Revenue

The successful candidate will be measured by meaningful government relationships, active accounts, requirements generated, opportunities developed, engagements, and revenue—not simply calls or emails.
