You Are:

An experienced federal sales professional who knows how learning, training, workforce development, and technology skilling solutions are procured across Federal Civilian and Department of Defense customers. You understand what it takes to sell learning and skilling into government specifically: the procurement paths, the funding cycles, the contract vehicles, and the mix of mission owners, training leaders, program offices, and technical decision-makers who shape a buy.

You have sold instructor-led training, technical certifications, digital learning platforms, workforce transformation programs, AI skilling, or related solutions into federal agencies, and you can point to the results.

You run a multi-pronged motion comfortably. You partner with AFS account teams when strategic alignment opens a door; you work through federal channel partners to reach agencies and transact through their contract vehicles; and you generate your own pipeline directly when neither path applies. You know which lane fits a given opportunity, and you can move across all three to create, develop, and close business.

The Work:

• Grow LearnVantage business across Federal Civilian and Department of Defense accounts through three complementary motions: partnership with Accenture Federal Services, engagement with federal channel partners, and direct LearnVantage-led selling.

• Develop and manage relationships with federal channel partners and aggregators to expand market reach, access contract vehicles, and transact LearnVantage solutions efficiently.

• Build and own a qualified federal pipeline through self-generated business development including prospecting, industry engagement, events, contract-vehicle activity, and referrals alongside partner- and channel-sourced opportunities.

• Partner with AFS account teams to position LearnVantage within broader mission modernization, AI, cloud, cyber, and workforce transformation initiatives.

• Pursue direct LearnVantage-led federal opportunities where scope, threshold, buying path, or client need supports a motion outside an AFS-led engagement.

• Engage federal training leaders, workforce development stakeholders, mission owners, technical leaders, contracting personnel, and executive sponsors to understand priorities, funding realities, and desired outcomes.

• Translate agency workforce gaps into practical learning and skilling solutions: instructor-led programs, certification pathways, digital learning, role-based skilling, and custom engagements.

• Partner with LearnVantage solution architecture, delivery, curriculum, and product teams to shape credible, deliverable solutions and strong client outcomes.

• Own qualification, forecasting, pipeline management, and CRM discipline, and lead responses to federal RFIs, RFPs, and task orders in coordination with internal and AFS teams.

• Bring federal market intelligence (competitor moves, buying signals, and client needs) back to LearnVantage leadership to sharpen offerings and go-to-market priorities.

This is a hybrid role. Travel of up to 25% is required, depending on customer activity, pursuits, and events, concentrated around the DC metro area and key agency locations.

Here's What You Need:

• Minimum of 5 years sales experience in the training, learning, or workforce development industry, with proven success selling to federal clients (Federal Civilian and/or Department of Defense).

• Minimum of 5 years experience selling with or through federal channel partners, resellers, or aggregators, including transacting through their contract vehicles.

• Minimum of 5 years experience selling one or more of: instructor-led technical training, IT certifications, AI skilling, digital learning platforms, or cloud, data, software development, DevOps, or cybersecurity training.

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent (minimum 12 years) work experience. (If Associate’s Degree, must have minimum 6 years work experience.

Bonus Points If:

• You've sold federal learning or skilling solutions for a digital learning provider, an instructor-led training company, an IT certification provider, or a workforce development firm.

• You know federal contract vehicles and buying mechanisms including BPA, GWAC, IDIQ, GSA schedules, SEWP, agency training budgets, and small-dollar training purchases.

• You've sold alongside or partnered with large federal systems integrators, including Accenture Federal Services or comparable organizations.

• You have depth in high-demand technical training domains: AI and generative AI, cloud, data, cybersecurity, software engineering, or DevOps.

• You know the major technology vendor learning ecosystems (Microsoft, AWS, Google Cloud, IBM, SAP, and NVIDIA).

• You've sold both standalone training engagements and larger workforce transformation or enterprise skilling programs.

• You hold an active security clearance or are eligible to obtain one.

• You're comfortable in a business that is still taking shape and want to help build the go-to-market motion as it matures.

Professional Skills Required:

• Demonstrated ability to self-source pipeline and to sell through partners including prospecting, account planning, event follow-up, referral development, and opportunity qualification.

• Working knowledge of how federal agencies buy training and skilling: procurement paths, contracting considerations, funding cycles, and stakeholder alignment.

• Proven relationships and credibility with federal training leaders, program offices, contracting teams, technical leaders, and executive sponsors.

• Consultative selling skills that connect learning investments to mission outcomes and workforce readiness.

• Strong written and verbal communication: proposals, executive briefings, and client presentations.
