Role Overview:

The Federal Professional Services Manager is a key leadership role within Trellix’s Global Professional Services Organization, responsible for directing a team of technical consultants in the U.S. Federal customer base. Reporting to the Director of DOW, IC, DISA Professional Services, you will oversee delivery execution, operational rigor, scope management, and revenue realization across Combatant Command (COCOM), U.S. Army, Airforce, and Space Force.

In this role, you will bridge strategic leadership with technical delivery execution for critical DOW customers. You will coach and lead teams of 15–20 Federal Professional Services personnel, partnering closely with Federal Sales, Customer Success, Technical Support, and Engineering to deliver complex cybersecurity deployment, custom integration, and architectural advisory services. Your primary objectives are driving billable utilization, project margin, Statement of Work (SOW) delivery, and ensuring consultant success across mission-critical agency operations.

Justification

Backfill for the expected attrition of a Sr. Manager that will be projected to depart the company by December. In order to sustain our accounts across the Department of War (DoW), we require dedicated delivery leadership to manage the P&L, effectively scope new work with Account Managers, optimize consultant billable utilization and oversee complex SOW execution across challenging customers in classified environments.

Practice Scoping & Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Partner with Public Sector Sales Account Executives and Solutions Engineers during pre-sales phases to scope technical engagements, write detailed SOWs, and estimate project effort accurately.
  • Collaborate closely with Customer Success Manager (CSMs) leadership to ensure a seamless transition from solution deployment to long-term operational adoption and expansion.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
