Our client is a mid-sized federal IT systems integrator providing optimization efficiencies for a variety of government agencies, with a focus on Homeland Security, Defense and Federal Financial Services initiatives.

They are seeking an energetic, experienced candidate who can demonstrate successful behaviors in identifying, pursuing, and closing IT solution deals in the Federal marketplace. You will join a growing team to target opportunities that offer their unique solutions to Federal agencies and as such, you will have direct accountability for opportunity identification, capture/winning deals and you will be responsible for managing client and partner relationships across your portfolio.

Position Overview

Our Client is seeking a Vice President / Account Executive to own the full growth, of its Financial Markets account, with a primary focus on expanding into the Department of the Treasury (including the IRS and the Bureau of the Fiscal Service) and other financial regulatory and oversight agencies, such as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), Federal Reserve Board, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), and Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC). This is a mission-critical leadership role for a company undergoing a deliberate and high-stakes portfolio transformation, and the financial markets are central to our client’s next stage of growth.

This is not a role for someone who manages from a distance. The right candidate wakes up every morning thinking about how to keep the work, win the recompetes, and build the relationships that generate the next contract. They bring deep technical credibility in IT infrastructure, cloud, application development, data and analytics, cybersecurity, or related disciplines, along with a working understanding of federal financial agency priorities such as legacy system and IT modernization, taxpayer and customer experience, financial management and payment systems, data analytics and fraud detection, and Zero Trust security. They use that fluency to earn trust with customers and partners, identify expansion opportunities, and propose innovative solutions that generate long-term engagements.

The VP is the account owner but will not work in isolation; this leader will partner closely with The Company’s Chief Growth Officer (CGO) and the broader growth organization (including capture managers) to build pipeline, pursue new business, and coordinate across the company’s growth infrastructure.

The expectation is that this leader is hands-on and actively engaged in growth activities, not simply directing others from the sidelines. This position reports directly to the CGO and operates with a high degree of autonomy. There is no micromanagement here, but there is accountability. The right person is a self-starter who can hit the ground running, set their own priorities, and drive results without waiting to be told what to do.
