Business Development Manager — Federal Subcontracting & Partnerships Growth Lead

OXUS Consulting Group
Reston, VA
The Opportunity

OXUS is hiring a federal business development leader to drive growth through subcontracting, teaming, and strategic partnerships . We are intentionally keeping the target federal agency open—we want to learn where top candidates have the strongest relationships, credibility, and near-term opportunity paths .

This is a high-ownership role for someone who can secure near-term subcontracting work through prime contractor relationships and build a disciplined pursuit pipeline aligned to OXUS services: management consulting, IT services, and human capital/workforce solutions .

What Youll Own (Portfolio + Outcomes)

  • Serve as the primary account lead for a federal portfolio aligned to your strongest agency relationships and select prime contractor partners.
  • Translate customer/partner engagement into qualified pursuits, teaming positions, and awards.

Key Responsibilities

Strategy & Market Focus (Agency + Prime Ecosystem)

  • Develop and execute a BD strategy for the federal agencies where you have the strongest traction, aligned to OXUS offerings.
  • Identify whitespace and partner-led routes to market across consulting, IT services, and workforce solutions.

Opportunity Identification, Qualification, Shaping & Capture

  • Identify, qualify, and shape subcontracting and teaming opportunities across mission support, IT/cyber, data/analytics, modernization, and workforce needs.
  • Lead capture actions: win strategy, teaming approach, solution shaping, and proposal support coordination (in partnership with internal technical/delivery resources).
  • Ensure pursuits align with OXUS strengths, delivery capacity, and mission priorities.

Teaming & Partnerships

  • Foster strategic teaming relationships across large primes, small businesses, and niche/technology partners to expand reach and improve competitiveness.
  • Drive partner follow-through from intent to execution, including coordinating teaming actions and pursuit roles (e.g., NDAs/TCAs as needed).

Pipeline Discipline & Executive Reporting

  • Maintain clean, accurate pipeline records (CRM) and deliver disciplined forecasting and reporting to senior leadership.
  • Run a practical growth cadence (opportunity qualification standards, lightweight gate reviews, and pursuit health checks).
  • Provide timely briefings on account strategy, pipeline health, pursuit status, risks, and path-to-win.

Competitive Intelligence & Market Presence

  • Monitor acquisition trends, competitive landscape, and evolving agency priorities to anticipate and shape emerging opportunities.
  • Represent OXUS at agency and industry events; translate engagement into concrete pursuits and teaming actions.

What Success Looks Like (Goals)

  • 30 days: clear target map (your agency portfolio + key primes), active partner conversations, and multiple qualified subcontracting opportunities in motion.
  • 60 days: shaped pursuits with defined win strategies, partner alignment, and capture/proposal plans.
  • 90 days (goal): a subcontract award or a credibly late-stage prime-led pursuit position plus a repeatable pipeline of qualified opportunities.

(Federal timelines vary; expectation is tangible progress, credible pursuit positioning, and near-term commercial results through compliant channels.)

What Were Looking For

Required

  • Demonstrated success driving federal business development, especially via prime contractor relationships leading to subcontract tasking/awards.
  • Proven ability to qualify opportunities, lead teaming/capture actions, and coordinate proposal support.
  • Strong communication, negotiation, and executive presence.

Strongly Preferred

  • Deep domain expertise in one or more federal mission areas/agencies where you have established relationships and credibility.
  • Experience across one or more: management consulting/mission support, IT/cyber/data, and/or workforce solutions.
  • Working knowledge of the federal acquisition lifecycle and common contract vehicles; strong CRM discipline.

Clearance: Nice to have, not required.

Ethics & Compliance (Federal Contracting)

This role requires compliant BD practices, including no seeking/using nonpublic procurement or source-selection information and maintaining professional integrity in government and industry interactions. OXUS does not request or accept nonpublic procurement information.

How to Apply

Send your resume + a short note covering:

  • the federal agencies/mission areas where you have the strongest relationships
  • prime contractors you've partnered with
  • 1–2 high-level examples of subcontract wins/pursuits you led (no nonpublic details)
