Finally, the ideal candidate will possess experience selling in an at scale motion individually, have lead efforts to transfer selling skills to large sales teams and be familiar with implementing at scale go-to market tactics across large sales organizations. Responsibilities for this role will include building, leading and managing a Business Development organization focused on wide market penetration, driving individual seller adoption, and delivering Training and Certification revenue from our customers within our Public Sector business.

You will manage a team responsible for developing and closing a robust training pipeline by working with customers to understand their technical enablement challenges, developing detailed training proposals and helping customers with execution of training plans. To be successful in this role, our leader will think strategically and analytically about the business, product, and build and convey compelling value propositions while working cross-organizationally to build continued selling motions by our field sellers. This strategy should result in the closure of large and highly complex AWS Training and Certification opportunities.
