Be a trusted advisor to your customers by understanding their business and advising on how ServiceNow can help help their IT roadmap
Identify the right specialist/ support resources to bring into a deal, at the right time

To be successful in this role you have:

10+ years of US Federal sales experience within software OR solutions sales organization
Experience establishing trusted relationships with current and prospective clients and other teams
Experience producing new business, negotiate deals, and maintain healthy C-Level relationships
Experience achieving sales targets
Experience in leveraging or critically thinking about how to integrate AI into work processes, decision-making, or problem-solving. This may include using AI-powered tools, automating workflows, analyzing AI-driven insights, or exploring AI's potential impact on the function or industry.
The ability to understand the "bigger picture" and our plans around IT
Experience promoting a customer success focus in a "win as a team" environment
Willingness to travel up to 50%
