About Peraton
At Peraton the product is the government contract: its sellers are business development and capture staff who win large single-award and recompete deals with federal agencies and the military, not reps carrying a product quota. Business development is split by sector and customer, with the Space and Intelligence sector hiring directors who own US Space Force and Air Force accounts or the Defense Intelligence Agency and wider intelligence community, under the sector's chief growth officer, and the Federal Civilian sector hiring business development executives for the Department of Homeland Security and for the federal financial regulators (SEC, FDIC, CFTC and the Federal Reserve). Each of those seats writes the account plan, shapes requirements with agency leaders before a solicitation is released, and works alongside capture managers, capture directors and capture vice presidents who take a pursuit through proposal with solution architects and program teams. Roles are senior and ask for a long federal business development record and existing relationships inside the agency, and require US citizenship and a clearance ranging from public trust to Top Secret/SCI. Sellers are expected to live near the customer, in Northern Virginia, Colorado Springs, El Segundo or Huntsville, or to travel heavily if they do not.

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.
