Account Executive - Nonprofits, AWS Nonprofits

Named Account Executive, AWS Charities Nonprofit Team

Help nonprofit organizations accelerate their mission by connecting innovative cloud and AI solutions with the unique challenges nonprofits face. As a strategic partner on the AWS Charities Nonprofit team, you'll go beyond traditional sales — helping charities, foundations, and social-impact organizations unlock their potential through generative AI, data and analytics, application modernization, and cloud-first strategies. Your portfolio includes organizations like disaster relief agencies, food banks, faith-based charities, global development NGOs, community foundations, and social services providers.

You will partner with Executive Directors, Chief Program Officers, VPs of Development, CIOs, and board members who are reimagining how technology serves their mission and amplifies beneficiary outcomes.

This role requires experience in technology sales — ideally in cloud, SaaS, or infrastructure — and a proven track record of building pipeline and closing complex, multi-stakeholder deals. With your consultative approach and understanding of how technology amplifies mission outcomes, you will act as a strategic partner to nonprofit leaders: educating them on AWS capabilities, building business cases that resonate with budget-constrained environments, and identifying opportunities across cloud migration, modernization, and AI/ML adoption.

Key job responsibilities include:

• Drive revenue growth across a named portfolio of charity, foundation, and social-impact accounts, owning the full sales cycle from prospecting to close
• Build and execute strategic account plans that deepen existing AWS relationships and align new solutions to mission outcomes, grant cycles, and board-approval timelines
• Grow pipeline through account expansion, whitespace identification, partner referrals, AWS programs (e.g., Cloud Credits for Nonprofits), and industry event engagement
• Engage Executive Directors, Chief Program Officers, CIOs, and board-level stakeholders with a consultative, education-first approach that earns trust before asking for commitment
• Navigate multi-funder procurement environments — building business cases that map to grant funding, corporate sponsor ships, AWS credits, and operational budgets
• Identify and qualify opportunities across cloud migration, application modernization, data/analytics, and generative AI adoption
• Partner with Solutions Architects to scope technical solutions, deliver proofs of concept, and validate architectures for resource-constrained IT environments
• Collaborate with Partner Managers and AWS Nonprofit Specialists to assemble the right pursuit teams for complex, multi-stakeholder deals
• Accurately forecast revenue and manage pipeline hygiene through weekly deal inspection and MEDDPICC qualification rigor
