About PCR & Orbit
Professional Computing Resources (PCR) supports complex, regulated organizations, especially higher education and the public sector, with technology asset management solutions across hardware and telecom.
Orbit is PCR’s new cloud product for software lifecycle management. Orbit unifies software spend, usage, renewals, vendor contracts, and ROI insights into a single system of record, paired with an AI powered layer that helps teams surface what matters and what to do next.
Orbit has a strong runway through PCR’s installed base, with a large horizontal opportunity beyond it. Orbit is the starting point, not the finish line. We intend to keep shipping modules and adjacent products over time to address more of the IT workflow in higher ed and the public sector, leveraging PCR’s distribution and Valsoft’s operational strength to move quickly.
The role
We’re hiring a Head of Revenue to lead Orbit’s go to market from launch through early scale. This is the first dedicated commercial hire for Orbit. You will own pipeline creation, run full cycle deals, and build the repeatable sales motion we will scale over time.
This is a hands on operator role. You will be a key bridge between the market and product, turning customer discovery into clear requirements, prioritization, and shipped capabilities that drive adoption and profitable growth. You will also continuously look for ways to grow Orbit and expand the opportunity, both by extending Orbit into adjacent workflows and by identifying new modules or product opportunities beyond Orbit that fit the higher ed and public sector IT workflow where PCR already plays today.
As traction grows, we will add tools and capacity such as marketing support, SDR support, and partners, but early on you will be the person driving momentum.

2) Build demand in a scrappy, repeatable way
- Create and run outbound motions including account lists, sequencing, messaging tests, and a call email LinkedIn mix
- Develop campaigns that create spikes in demand such as webinars, customer showcases, partner sessions, and conference follow ups
- Establish a simple measurable funnel and iterate quickly using conversion rates, cycle length, and win loss themes
- Use PCR’s credibility, relationships, and customer access to accelerate trust and shorten cycles
3) Translate market feedback into shipped must haves
- Spend meaningful time in customer conversations to understand workflows, blockers, and urgency drivers
- Turn insights into structured inputs for product and engineering including requirements, prioritization, integrations, packaging, and what needs to be true to win and expand
- Partner closely with product and engineering to sharpen workflows and push fast iterations that improve conversion, adoption, and retention
- Create early proof points such as reference customers, case studies, and outcome narratives
4) Keep expanding the opportunity, Orbit and beyond
- Continuously look for opportunities to expand Orbit into adjacent needs across the higher ed and public sector IT workflow where PCR plays today
- Identify and validate new modules, integrations, and next products through discovery, then help turn the best opportunities into a clear build and sell plan
- Bring a GM mindset to growth by increasing ACV, improving retention and expansion, and strengthening Orbit’s strategic position over the next three to five years
5) Build the foundation for scale
- Create the repeatable sales playbook including ICP, messaging, talk tracks, demo narrative, objection handling, sequences, and lightweight enablement
- Recommend when to add capacity such as SDR, marketing support, partners, and CS based on leading indicators and what is proven
- Help define the longer term commercial approach including coverage model, partner strategy, and the operating cadence that scales
