The Opportunity AT&T Global Public Sector is seeking a growth-oriented sales leader to help advance the missions of the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps. This leader will build and execute a portfolio strategy that connects fleet, force, installation, enterprise IT, cyber, logistics, and modernization priorities with secure, resilient communications and technology solutions. This is not a role for waiting on released solicitations. The leader will help the team see around corners, create qualified demand, shape acquisition pathways, and bring the full strength of AT&T and its partner ecosystem to complex mission problems. The role combines people leadership, executive customer engagement, portfolio strategy, capture discipline, and direct accountability for growth.

• Build pipeline ahead of the RFP by engaging mission owners, CIO and CTO organizations, acquisition leaders, contracting officials, technical authorities, and industry partners before requirements are fixed.
• Translate mission and operational challenges into outcome-based solutions spanning advanced networking, mobility and 5G, edge, cloud connectivity, cybersecurity, AI-enabled operations, professional services, and managed solutions.
• Personally sponsor the most strategic pursuits, from discovery and shaping through capture, negotiation, award, implementation alignment, and expansion.
• Develop trusted executive relationships and multithread accounts beyond a single customer, program, contract, or technology domain.
• Orchestrate solution engineering, capture, contracts, legal, finance, delivery, operations, product, marketing, and partner teams in a highly matrixed environment.
• Build a partner strategy across systems integrators, OEMs, cloud and security providers, small businesses, and contract vehicle holders to improve access, differentiation, and win probability.

• Within 12 months: increased opportunity velocity and win readiness, stronger partner leverage, repeatable sales plays, and a team operating with clear ownership and disciplined execution.

Required Qualifications

• Demonstrated success leading and growing complex enterprise technology, telecommunications, digital infrastructure, cybersecurity, cloud, software, professional services, or mission-solution businesses.
• Experience leading quota-carrying sellers or cross-functional growth teams, with a record of coaching talent and improving execution.
• Ability to originate, shape, qualify, and close complex, multi-stakeholder opportunities rather than relying only on established relationships or released procurements.
• Working knowledge of federal acquisition and funding processes, including the ability to navigate contract vehicles, teaming, capture, proposals, pricing, negotiations, and procurement risk.
• Executive-level communication and presence, with the ability to engage mission, technology, acquisition, and business stakeholders and translate among them.

• Strong business and analytical judgment, including pipeline economics, investment trade-offs, pricing, profitability, forecast risk, and resource allocation.
• Ability to lead across a matrix, influence without direct authority, and maintain momentum across long sales cycles and competing priorities.

• Experience partnering with major systems integrators, defense technology companies, hyperscalers, OEMs, and small businesses.
• Familiarity with mission networks, zero trust, cloud and edge architectures, resilient communications, cybersecurity, data and AI, or managed service operating models.
• Experience with complex indefinite-delivery vehicles, task orders, enterprise agreements, Other Transaction Authority, Commercial Solutions Openings, or similar acquisition approaches.
• NCR-based or able to sustain a consistent in-person presence with customers and the team.
• Bachelor’s or advanced degree, military education, industry credentials, or equivalent practical experience. No specific degree is required.

Leadership Attributes

• Mission connected Starts with the customer mission and works backward to the right business and technology outcome.

• Player-coach Leads from the front, joins the hard calls, develops people, and creates accountability without bureaucracy.
