Federal Account Manager
Trident Search, Washington, DC, United States
If you’ve spent years building trusted relationships with U.S. Federal Civilian agencies and want a role where you own your accounts, shape long-term programs, and deliver real impact , this is the role to consider.
A leading cybersecurity platform serving federal agencies is hiring a Federal Account Manager to take responsibility for an established portfolio, drive renewals and expansion, and act as a strategic partner to your customers .
This isn’t transactional sales. It’s consultative, multi-stakeholder, mission-driven account leadership .
Why This Role Stands Out
Ownership of named federal civilian accounts with high-value, long-term relationships
Focus on retention, expansion, and strategic outcomes , not cold-calling
Work directly with technical, product, and customer success teams to drive measurable impact
Navigate complex federal procurement, contracting vehicles, and funding cycles
Opportunity to position a mission-critical platform supporting compliance, security, and operational resilience
You’ll Be Doing
Lead and grow your assigned accounts as the primary federal contact
Drive contract renewals, option years, and expansion opportunities
Build trust with program managers, CISOs, security teams, and contracting officers
Develop and execute multi-year account plans aligned to agency objectives
Identify whitespace across bureaus, programs, and components
Proactively manage account health and renewal risk
Who We’re Looking For
8+ years in federal sales or account management , ideally in civilian agencies
Proven track record with cybersecurity, cyber risk, or enterprise SaaS solutions
Deep knowledge of federal procurement, acquisition stakeholders, and contracting processes
Experience managing and expanding existing accounts
Consultative, strategic mindset — you focus on long-term value, not short-term wins
Willing to travel domestically as needed
Why Federal Sellers Take This Role
Real account ownership and credibility in civilian federal agencies
Opportunity to work with a mission-aligned, established vendor
Role structured for long-term program success with cross-functional support
Focus on strategy, outcomes, and expansion over transactional sales
This role is ideal for seasoned federal sellers who see the bigger picture, maintain trusted agency relationships, and thrive in strategic, multi-year programs .
