About Jerry Carter
With extensive expertise in global business development, pipeline growth, and strategic organizational rigor, I have led capture teams to exceed targeted revenue goals in competitive environments, generating increased revenue and profit as a trusted advisor with an uncompromising work ethic.Over my tenure with Raytheon, I have delivered ongoing and measurable outcomes. Selected career accomplishments include:• Generating $14B+ in out-of-plan opportunities within 8 months of assuming leadership as Raytheon’s Senior Director of Business Creation and Strategic Campaigns.• Leading the turnaround of intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance capture team operations at Raytheon, rigorously managing the budget and challenging critical thinking within client pursuit efforts to end 6 years of budget overruns while achieving 7% pipeline growth and +10% revenue increases annually.• Initiating and managing Raytheon’s $2B sale of 4 special mission aircrafts to India, securing a formal letter of request from India to the US government for approval that named Raytheon as the sole provider. • Establishing a structure for multiple defense companies’ capture processes that brought sophistication and discipline to every stage of the capture lifecycle, mapping investment spending to activities, defining objectives, setting milestones, building timelines, and reviewing progress for all captures.I lead teams with a mission-focused mindset, leveraging strategic sales knowledge, broad defense industry expertise, and a professional global network to structure and implement focused and compelling capture plans that fuel long-term business success.I am always looking to grow my professional network.
