Director, VA & Federal Health
Job Description:
- Represent Agile Six at industry conferences, VA industry days, and partner events. Travel approximately 1 day per week within the MD/N.VA/DC area; national conference travel is also expected.
- Build relationships with program offices and partners that lead to real opportunity shaping, not just introductions and follow-ups. Focus on VA OIT, VHA, VBA, and the broader federal health ecosystem.
- Work directly with active VA delivery teams to maintain client intelligence, identify expansion opportunities within existing programs, and ensure BD strategy is grounded in what our teams are actually experiencing on the ground. This is your most important source of competitive advantage in this market.
- Evaluate potential opportunities against strategic fit, win probability, and delivery alignment. Not every opportunity that looks good on paper is worth pursuing.
- Stay ahead of procurement pipeline, competitive positioning, and market shifts across your target agencies. Bring intelligence that shapes strategy, not reports that sit in a folder.
- Lead partner and teaming negotiations in a way that preserves delivery model integrity. Structure matters as much as relationship.
- Work closely with the Communications and Proposals team on market research, RFP analysis, and proposal development.
- Own and manage the VA and federal health BD pipeline with discipline and transparency.
- Identify and develop subcontracting and teaming opportunities with large primes. Support joint venture pursuit through Intuitial Six and Theta Six.
Requirements:
- 8+ years in business development, partnership management, or a similar strategic role within technology, digital services, or consulting.
- Deep familiarity with the VA ecosystem, whether from government service, industry, or both. You should understand how OIT, VHA, and VBA operate and how procurement decisions get made.
- Understanding of SDVOSB set-aside dynamics and VA-specific procurement vehicles.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to drive outcomes through relationship-building, not just introductions and follow-ups.
- Experience working cross-functionally with contracts, finance, and delivery teams.
- Authentic, values-driven approach with the ability to represent Agile Six's core values in high-stakes situations.
- Demonstrated ability to use AI-enabled tools in your own BD practice with sound judgment about where human context still matters.
