About Ping Identity:

At Ping Identity, we believe in making digital experiences both secure and seamless for all users, without compromise. We call this digital freedom. And it's not just something we provide our customers. It's something that inspires our company. People don't come here to join a culture that's built on digital freedom. They come to cultivate it.

Our intelligent, cloud identity platform lets people shop, work, bank, and interact wherever and however they want. Without friction. Without fear.

While protecting digital identities is at the core of our technology, protecting individual identities is at the core of our culture. We champion every identity. One of our core values, Respect Individuality, reminds us to celebrate differences so you are empowered to bring your authentic self to work.

We're headquartered in Denver, Colorado and we have offices and employees around the globe. We serve the largest, most demanding enterprises worldwide, including more than half of the Fortune 100. At Ping Identity, we're changing the way people and businesses think about cybersecurity, digital experiences, and identity and access management.

We are seeking an experienced and results-driven strategic sales executive to join our dedicated Public Sector sales team, reporting to the Director of Sales. This critical role is focused on driving significant net-new revenue and market expansion by acquiring major State, Local, and Education (SLED) customers across a defined, strategic territory. You will leverage your deep expertise in identity and cybersecurity to position Ping Identity as a key partner in solving complex government identity and security challenges. The Strategic Account Executive is central to accelerating Ping Identity's growth through disciplined execution of a land-and-expand strategy, establishing the foundation for substantial, long-term account growth.

You Will:

• Lead Strategic Revenue Growth: Own and exceed annual targets for net-new revenue by penetrating a defined list of strategic, high-value SLED prospect and customer accounts.

• Drive Complex Land-and-Expand: Strategically win large-scale, initial identity security deals that pave the way for broad, multi-year platform adoption and account expansion.
