An impressive mission requires an equally impressive Senior Lead, Public Safety Solutions

We believe that to serve the Public Safety community, we must speak their language and understand their mission from the inside out.

As the Senior Lead, Public Safety Solutions, you will be the "mission leader" for your territory. Working in partnership with the Public Safety Sales team, you leverage your deep industry experience to build immediate trust with end-users. You are a specialist in "the why" of the solution-demonstrating the functional power of VIA's Public Safety application, GHOST™, translating user needs into product requirements, and providing the thought leadership necessary to position VIA as the premier choice for Public Safety agencies.

In this role, you will play a critical role in the following areas:
  • Solution advocacy & demos: Serve as the primary lead for all technical and functional GHOST™ demonstrations. You ensure the application is mapped precisely to the specific "pain points" and workflows of the agency.

  • Thought leadership: In collaboration with your network, develop white papers and presentations to shape industry forums and guide public policy, differentiating VIA as a mission-first partner and innovation leader.
  • Relationship stewardship: Lead the relationship with end-users and product vendors within your territory. You will work closely with VIA's Client Delivery team to ensure customers successfully on-board GHOST™ and realize the mission value emphasized during the sales process.
  • Internal educator: Act as the bridge for non-public safety colleagues at VIA, educating the wider team on use cases, terminology, and procurement nuances.

    • An established network within the Public Safety community and a passion for modernizing government technology.
    • A natural communicator who can explain complex AI/Data solutions through the lens of mission success and officer safety.
    • A reputation as a respected and sought-out leader within the Public Safety community, known for professional integrity and mission-driven expertise
  • Essential skills and abilities
    • Exceptional communication and presentation skills, with the ability to articulate enterprise software solution value and concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences
    • Proven ability to develop compelling briefing material and collateral that resonates with the target audience
    • Excellent strategic thinking and problem-solving skills, with the capacity to conceptualize and execute effective sales campaigns
    • Strong organizational and project management skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines effectively
