Offer description

About the Role


We’re looking for a driven and commercially minded Account Executive to own the full sales cycle within a cybersecurity business. This is a hands-on role for someone who is equally comfortable generating their own leads, qualifying opportunities, running product demos, and closing deals, often with C-level and senior security stakeholders.


You’ll be selling a technically sophisticated cybersecurity solution, so confidence, credibility, and the ability to translate complex concepts into clear business value are essential.


This role represents a great opportunity for someone looking to transition into tech or cybersecurity sales. A technical background is not required — we’re looking for strong sales fundamentals, confidence, and the ability to learn. Full product training and ongoing support will be provided.


Key Responsibilities


* Proactively generate new business through outbound prospecting (cold calling, email, LinkedIn, networking)
* Qualify inbound and outbound leads to identify high-value opportunities
* Manage the full sales cycle from first contact through to close
* Deliver engaging product demos to senior decision-makers, including CISO, CIO, CTO, and other C-level stakeholders
* Understand customer security challenges and position solutions accordingly
* Build and maintain a strong sales pipeline using CRM tools
* Accurately forecast revenue and report on sales activity
* Work closely with technical, product, and leadership teams to support deals


What We’re Looking For


* Proven experience in a full-cycle / 360 sales role
* Strong outbound sales skills and confidence picking up the phone
* Comfortable presenting and demoing to senior and executive-level stakeholders
* Excellent communication, negotiation, and closing skills
* Self-starter mentality with strong ownership of results
* Ability to understand and articulate technical concepts in a commercial way


Nice to Have

* Previous experience selling cybersecurity solutions
* Experience selling to mid-market or enterprise customers
* Knowledge of common security frameworks, compliance, or risk-based selling


What We Offer

* Competitive base salary plus uncapped commission
* Opportunity to work in a fast-growing cybersecurity company
* High level of autonomy and ownership
* Direct exposure to senior leadership and strategic deals
* Clear progression path for high performers
