Role Overview:
Rogers is seeking an account executive to lead the Broader Public business development. This is a critical role to establish strategic direction in Broader Public Sector. In addition to traditional account executive accountabilities, the individual in this role will be responsible to:
Achieve acquisition and base revenue for the Broader Public Sector territory – targets will be established on an annual basis and will be shared by the resources assigned to the Broader Public Sector
Influence and respond to all appropriate RFIs and RFPs related to the procurement of goods and services relative to Rogers’ product portfolio
Develop new opportunities through active business development activities within all levels of Government (as appropriate) related to all Rogers product lines
Active executive level call activity to establish relationships and influence future opportunities for Rogers
Lead with daily and active collaboration with additional resource(s) dedicated to the Territory
What you will do:
Proactively identify and develop opportunities within public sector accounts – before formal procurement begins
Bring insights, trends and hypotheses that help customers think differently about their challenges and priorities
Influence how problems are defined and how success is measured – shaping opportunities early, not reacting late
Build trusted relationships across IT, Finance, Operations, Procurement and Executive leadership
Understand unique pressures of public sector organizations including:
Budget constraints
Policy and compliance requirements
Citizen and service delivery expectations
Position Rogers as a partner that helps modernize infrastructure, improve service delivery and reduce risk
Conduct structured discovery conversations to uncover priorities, KPI’s and areas of value loss
Navigate “guarded” environments by asking thoughtful, hypothesis-driven questions
Translate customer challenges into clear, outcome-based value propositions aligned to:
Operational efficiency
Risk and compliance
Citizen experience
Workforce productivity
Manage opportunities across multi-stakeholder environments with competing priorities
Understand and work effectively within public sector procurement processes (RFPs, RFQs, funding approvals)
Align stakeholders early to reduce friction during formal procurement stages
Maintain deal momentum despite long, complex sales cycles
Develop account plans grounded in:
Account intelligence
Stakeholder mapping
Value creation opportunities
Identify and engage priority stakeholders – those who influence directions and funding
Execute targeted outreach strategies that earn access through relevance, not generic messaging
Protect and grow accounts by anticipating competitive threats and procurement dynamics
Maintain accurate and current CRM data – including opportunities, stakeholders, next steps, risks
Use CRM as a strategic tool for pipeline management and forecasting, not just administration
Participate actively in pipeline reviews, account review and deal strategy sessions
Collaborate cross-functionally with technical teams, product specialists, partner and leadership
Follow a consistent operating rhythm including pre-call planning, deal reviews and debriefs
Stay informed on public sector trends, funding priorities and regulatory changes
Continuously improve your ability to lead discovery, build value and drive decisions
Leverage tools including AI and account intelligence platforms to enhance preparation and insight
Learn from wins and losses to improve future performance
What you will bring:
5-10+ years of experience in complex B2B sales, ideally with exposure to public sector (government, healthcare, education)
Proven ability to create and advance opportunities in complex environments, not just respond to RFP’s
Experience managing long, multi-stakeholder sales cycles
Understanding of public sector procurement processes, funding cycles, and governance structures
Ability to navigate fairness, transparency, and compliance requirements while still influencing outcomes
Experience aligning solutions to public sector priorities such as service delivery, efficiency and risk reduction
Strong discovery and listening skills – you uncover what matters, even when it’s not explicitly stated
Ability to build value propositions tied to measurable outcomes, not product features
Proven skill in engaging and influencing senior stakeholders
Experience developing and executing account strategies that drive growth and retention
Proficiency with CRM platforms for pipeline management and forecasting
Experience using sales and account intelligence tools (LinkedIn Sales Navigator)
Strong organizational skills – ability to manage multiple complex opportunities simultaneously
Comfort using virtual collaboration tools
Strong written and verbal communication skills including formal proposals and executive presentations
Ability to simplify complex solutions and connect them to the business and operational outcomes
Proven ability to collaborate across teams and influence without authority
Active contributor in team environments bringing insight, not just updates
A consultative, insight-led approach to selling, leading with value, not price
Curiosity and learning agility – continuously seek to understand and improve
Patience and persistence – a comfort with long sales cycles and ambiguity
Ownership and accountability – taking responsibility for outcomes
High standards – treating sales as a discipline and not a transactional role
