Civilgrid Account Executive at CivilGrid owns and grows sales presence across Texas cities and municipalities, focusing on government agencies. The role involves leading complex public sector sales cycles and navigating government procurement processes.

Responsibilities

Deliver and exceed sales targets with a strong, quantifiable history of success
Lead complex public sector sales cycles from prospecting through contract execution, including:
Securing executive sponsorship across capital program directors, engineering leadership, and GIS/asset management teams
Running pilots with clear success criteria tied to government KPIs (corridor delivery timelines, permit delays reduced, dig-in incidents prevented)
Converting pilots into multi-year enterprise agreements or master contracts
Develop creative, targeted outbound campaigns tailored to government buyer personas — Capital Program Directors, Right-of-Way & Permitting Managers, Transportation Engineers, and GIS/Asset Management Teams
Navigate government procurement processes including RFP/RFQ responses, cooperative purchasing vehicles, and compliance requirements common to public sector entities
Build compelling sales materials including executive presentations, ROI analyses, and business cases demonstrating measurable impact on program delivery, inter-agency coordination, and public liability reduction
Maintain stakeholder engagement throughout long government procurement cycles, with patience, persistence, and strategies to align with budget and program planning windows
Represent CivilGrid at government, infrastructure, and public works industry conferences with a strategic, outcome-focused approach to networking and prospecting
Leverage and expand an existing personal network in the public sector and government infrastructure space to open new opportunities and drive pipeline growth

We’re a small, but rapidly growing team that ships. Expect direct feedback, real ownership from day one, and proximity to customers — huge utilities, public agencies, and engineering firms whose work depends on what we build. We default to in-person collaboration where it matters and remote-friendly flexibility otherwise. We hire people who care deeply about their craft and the communities our customers serve.
