Alliance Sales Executive, Associate Director: Microsoft – State & Local Government
About Sales & Strategic Pursuits (S&SP)
EY’s Sales & Strategic Pursuits (S&SP) function unites sales leadership, sector insight, technology expertise, and solution depth to drive market‑leading growth. As EY’s growth catalyst, S&SP shapes and executes integrated go‑to‑market strategies across priority accounts, industry sectors, and strategic alliances—delivering differentiated value through a deeply client‑centric culture.
The Opportunity
As a Microsoft Alliance Sales Executive (MSFT SE), you will operate at the front edge of growth for EY’s largest and fastest‑growing alliance. This is a true sales hunter role—focused on originating net‑new opportunities, building pipeline, and closing revenue through deep partnership with Microsoft and direct engagement with State & Local Government (SLG) clients. You will be a market‑facing, quota‑carrying executive seller with deep expertise across Microsoft’s enterprise technology stack and a strong command of the State and Local public‑sector landscape. You will proactively create demand, not respond to it—identifying whitespace opportunities, shaping transformative conversations, and positioning Microsoft‑powered EY solutions that address the most complex challenges facing state and local governments. You will also be expected to embed AI‑driven thinking and tools into every aspect of your sales role—how you prospect, identify patterns, qualify opportunities, orchestrate pursuits, influence buyers, and accelerate time‑to‑close—serving as a model for modern, AI‑enabled enterprise selling at EY.
Key Responsibilities
Sales Origination:
- Relentlessly originate net‑new pipeline within State & Local Government by identifying unmet needs, emerging priorities, and transformation opportunities
- Drive revenue across three core channels:
- Direct client origination
- Microsoft field‑led co‑sell motions
- EY account team‑led pursuits
- Lead early‑stage opportunity identification and qualification, independently shaping pursuits from signal detection through deal maturation
Microsoft Alliance Leadership:
- Act as a trusted partner to Microsoft SLG field teams, evangelizing for EY building credibility and mindshare across account executives, specialists, and solution leadership
- Evangelize and position EY’s Microsoft‑powered offerings across Cloud & AI Platforms, AI Business Solutions and Security
- Shape joint go‑to‑market motions and influence Microsoft investment toward EY‑led pursuits
State & Local Government Sector Impact:
- Demonstrate deep understanding of state and local government missions, funding models, procurement cycles, policy drivers, and risk constraints
- Translate Microsoft technology capabilities and EY’s MSFT powered solutions, into outcomes that resonate with public‑sector executives, including resiliency, trust, citizen experience, data modernization, cybersecurity, and AI‑enabled government
- Build executive relationships across agencies, departments, and jurisdictions to establish EY as a strategic transformation partner
AI‑Enabled Selling & Innovation:
- Infuse AI into the full sales lifecycle, including:
- Account and opportunity analytics
- Intelligent prospecting and prioritization
- Pattern recognition across pipeline and buying signals
- AI‑supported storytelling, proposal shaping, and pursuit orchestration
- Champion AI‑enabled EY and Microsoft solutions with credibility, demonstrating both technical fluency and business impact
- Serve as a role model for modern, AI‑forward sales execution, helping elevate sales effectiveness across teams
Market Leadership & Collaboration:
- Deep sector and Microsoft technology expertise, with the ability to translate that knowledge into enterprise-scale transformations that deliver measurable business outcomes.
- Be the face of EY’s Microsoft Alliance within EY’s State & Local Government business and the face of EY to Microsoft SLG teams
- Orchestrate cross‑service line and cross‑functional teams to bring the best of EY to pursuit opportunities
- Coach and influence account teams and peers through active leadership in the market—not authority alone
Skills & Attributes For Success
- Hunter mindset with a strong bias for action, curiosity, and persistence
- Exceptional executive presence with the ability to influence senior government and Microsoft stakeholders
- Proven ability to navigate and succeed in a highly matrixed, alliance‑driven environment
- Consultative selling style—trusted advisor, not transactional seller
- Strategic thinker with the ability to connect technology, policy, funding, and mission outcomes
- Comfortable leveraging data and AI insights to guide decisions and storytelling
To Qualify, You Must Have
- 10+ years of quota‑carrying sales experience in professional services, technology, and/or enterprise solutions
- Demonstrated success as a net‑new business hunter, not solely an account or alliance manager
- Direct experience selling to State and Local Government clients
- Strong Microsoft ecosystem experience, including co‑sell and channel‑led motions
- Deep knowledge across Microsoft’s enterprise stack, including:
- Azure & Cloud Platforms
- Data, Analytics & AI
- Cybersecurity
- Power Platform & Low‑Code Solutions
- AI Foundry
- Prior experience selling at a Big Four firm or large global systems integrator
- Exceptional client relationship management and executive communication skills
- Bachelor's degree (or equivalent)
Ideally, You’ll Also Have
- Technical background or delivery/program leadership experience
- Experience selling large, complex, multi‑stakeholder transformation programs
- Strong coaching and mentoring capability
- Proven team‑selling experience across alliances and solution teams
- Willingness to travel up to 50%

Search Sales Executive Jobs in Rhode IslandSales Executive Jobs in Rhode Island: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies sponsor visas for sales executives in Rhode Island?
Mid-size and large employers in Rhode Island's financial services, healthcare, and manufacturing sectors are the most active sponsors for sales executive roles. Companies like Amica Mutual, Textron, and Lifespan have sponsored professional positions in the past. Technology-adjacent firms in the Providence metro area also hire for enterprise and B2B sales roles where H-1B visa sponsorship has been documented through Department of Labor filings.
Which visa types are most common for sales executive roles in Rhode Island?
The H-1B is the most common visa for sales executives in Rhode Island, provided the role qualifies as a specialty occupation requiring a bachelor's degree in a specific field such as business, marketing, or a technical discipline. TN visa status is available to Canadian and Mexican nationals in qualifying business categories. O-1B and E-3 visas apply in specific circumstances depending on nationality and demonstrated achievement.
Which cities in Rhode Island have the most sales executive sponsorship jobs?
Providence accounts for the majority of sales executive sponsorship activity in Rhode Island, given its concentration of corporate headquarters, financial institutions, and healthcare networks. Warwick and Cranston also have meaningful employer presence, particularly in manufacturing and professional services. East Providence and Newport see occasional openings tied to specialty industries, though volume is lower than the Providence metro core.
How to find sales executive visa sponsorship jobs in Rhode Island?
Migrate Mate filters job listings specifically by visa sponsorship availability, making it easier to identify sales executive roles in Rhode Island without sorting through positions that don't offer sponsorship. You can search by role type and state to surface relevant openings from employers who have indicated willingness to sponsor. This is particularly useful for H-1B and other work visa candidates targeting Rhode Island's Providence-area sales market.
What should international candidates know about sales executive hiring in Rhode Island?
Sales executive roles in Rhode Island most commonly require a degree in business, marketing, or a closely related field to meet H-1B specialty occupation standards. Rhode Island's employer base skews toward established industries like insurance, healthcare, and defense manufacturing, where hiring cycles and sponsorship decisions tend to move more deliberately than in high-growth tech hubs. Building relationships with Providence-area employers directly can support sponsorship conversations alongside any job board activity.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored sales executive jobs in Rhode Island?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
