• Direct experience selling into Policing, Law Enforcement, the Home Office and/or UKIC
• Existing relationships within one or more of these markets
• Strong knowledge of CCS frameworks, G-Cloud and central-government procurement
• Evidence of originating and closing complex new-business opportunities
