What You Bring :
  • A proven record of sales and negotiation success in the U.S. defense sector.
  • Deep knowledge of DoD contracts (IDIQ, OTA, FMS) and procurement processes.
  • An active network spanning primes, integrators, and acquisition offices.
  • Strong communication, influence, and relationship-building skills.
  • The discipline to work independently and manage complex priorities.

What's in it for you?
