Public Sector Acumen: You are energized by mastering the nuances of public procurement, including state purchasing cooperatives (e.g., Omnia, TIPS), formal RFP/bids, and federal funding streams (Title I, II-A, IV).
Strategic Territory Ownership: You take pride in building targeted account plans, executing disciplined land-and-expand strategies, and maintaining rigorous pipeline hygiene using MEDDPICC and Command of the Message.
Autonomous Drive: You excel with the operational freedom to run your territory remotely while traveling on-site (25%–40%) to lead high-impact board and cabinet presentations.
Executive Leadership Pathways: Access structured leadership tracks, executive coaching, and continuous product enablement to accelerate your career.
Category-Defining Influence: Deepen your domain mastery by expanding the Experience Management (XM) category across the public sector and statewide education systems.
High-Complexity Deal Mastery: Hone your enterprise acumen by closing seven-figure, multi-year public sector agreements at scale.
Drive Strategic District Penetration: Formulate and execute account-level business plans for Tier-1 districts to successfully navigate budget seasons, long sales cycles, and school board approvals.
Achieve ARR Impact: Meet and exceed annual seven-figure ARR targets through new logo acquisition, large-scale enterprise expansions, and multi-year contracts ($150K–$1M+ ACV).
Deliver Value-Based Executive Advisory: Partner with district c-suites and board members to identify critical climate, staffing, and community gaps, mapping them to Qualtrics XM outcomes.
Mobilize Cross-Functional Deal Teams: Lead Solutions Engineers, Education Strategists, RFP Specialists, and Executive Sponsors to craft winning, compliant public sector bids and presentations.
Master Procurement & Public Funding: Align enterprise deals with cooperative contracts and federal/state funding allocations (Title I, Title II-A, Title IV, state legislative grants) to accelerate contract execution.
Maintain Operational Rigor: Deliver reliable quarterly forecasts, disciplined pipeline tracking, and MEDDPICC qualification within Salesforce.com, Gong, and Clari.
Enterprise Quota Attainment: A documented track record of carrying enterprise SaaS quota and consistently hitting or exceeding seven-figure annual ARR targets.
Complex Multi-Stakeholder Deals: Proven experience running 6- to 18-month consultative sales cycles with high ACVs ($150K–$1M+) and formal buying committees.
Public Sector & Education Sales Background: Direct experience selling software, data, or analytics platforms into K-12 school districts, state/local government, or public sector agencies (with established relationships across Superintendents and state agencies preferred).
Procurement & Bidding Competence: Demonstrated success navigating formal RFPs/RFIs, state purchasing cooperatives, and public funding mechanisms.
Modern Sales Stack Mastery: Hands-on experience executing with MEDDPICC or Command of the Message, alongside CRM and sales intelligence platforms (Salesforce, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Gong, Clari).
