Detail Job Description
Seeking a high-impact, entrepreneurial Principal Sales Consultant – Client Strategies to drive strategic revenue growth across State & Local (SLED) and select Commercial markets. This role is designed for senior sales professionals who excel at building markets, breaking into new accounts, and closing complex, high-value opportunities that combine consulting services with strategically aligned technology solutions.

This is not a traditional services sales role. The ideal candidate brings a hybrid background—capable of selling consulting-led engagements while also leveraging strong relationships within key OEM ecosystems (currently seeking those with notable relationships with HPE, Arista Networks, and/or Zscaler) to originate, influence, and close integrated solutions.

The successful candidate will operate with a high degree of autonomy and will be expected to build and scale a multi-million-dollar book of business by aligning Ashburn’s consulting capabilities with OEM partner strategies, customer modernization initiatives, and contract vehicle access.

Key Responsibilities
Strategic Business Development & Market Entry
· Identify, pursue, and close net-new opportunities across SLED and targeted Commercial accounts.
· Break into new accounts by leveraging existing relationships, OEM partner alignment, and consultative engagement strategies.
· Develop and execute account strategies that combine services-led value with OEM-backed solution opportunities.
OEM & Channel Alignment
· Build and maintain strong, productive relationships with key OEM partners (currently seeking someone with working relationships within HPE, Arista and/or Zscaler), including field sellers, channel managers, and alliance leaders.
· Co-develop opportunities with OEM counterparts, aligning Ashburn’s consulting and implementation capabilities to partner-driven sales motions.
· Identify and pursue joint go-to-market opportunities that accelerate revenue through partner ecosystems.
Consulting-Led Opportunity Shaping
· Lead client conversations focused on modernization initiatives including network transformation, cybersecurity, Zero Trust, and hybrid cloud.
· Position Ashburn as a trusted advisor in early-stage solution design, architecture discussions, and strategic planning efforts.
· Translate technical and business challenges into scoped consulting and implementation opportunities.
Public Sector Capture & Contract Strategy
· Navigate SLED procurement environments, leveraging cooperative contracts and contract vehicles to accelerate deal closure.
· Identify and recommend strategic contract vehicle pursuits aligned to target accounts and pipeline.
· Support capture efforts, teaming strategies, and proposal development where applicable.
Revenue Growth & Account Expansion
· Own the full lifecycle of client relationships—from initial engagement through expansion and long-term growth.
· Drive both services and solution-based revenue within accounts, increasing wallet share over time.
· Maintain a strong, qualified pipeline with clear progression toward revenue targets.
Market Presence & GTM Contribution
· Represent Ashburn in industry events, OEM partner engagements, and customer forums.
· Provide field intelligence to inform service offerings, OEM alignment strategy, and go-to-market evolution.
· Contribute to the development of repeatable sales plays that integrate consulting and OEM-driven opportunities.
