Location: Greater Boston, MA | Team: Sales | Employment Type: Full-Time, hybrid
About the Role
We’re looking for a proven Strategic Account Executive to join our fast-growing team. This role is ideal for a driven, consultative seller who can navigate complex buying cycles and thrive in the fast-paced environment of an early-stage cyber company.
You’ll play a critical role in growing VulnCheck’s presence across enterprise accounts, with a strong focus on expanding our footprint within large U.S.-based enterprises, security teams, and threat-centric organizations.
Responsibilities
- Own and grow a named set of enterprise accounts, with a focus on net-new revenue and strategic expansion.
- Drive net-new revenue by qualifying, developing, and closing high-value opportunities.
- Maintain a consistent and strategic pipeline with accurate forecasting in Salesforce.
- Lead the full sales cycle—from prospecting and partner collaboration (technology and reseller partners) through negotiation and close.
- Build relationships with CISOs, Vulnerability Management leaders, Threat Intelligence teams, SOC leaders, and other key stakeholders.
- Collaborate with Sales Engineering, Product, and Marketing to tailor solutions to client needs.
- Act as a trusted advisor and thought leader in vulnerability intelligence and attack surface reduction.
Requirements
- 5+ years of enterprise sales experience in cybersecurity, with a track record of consistently hitting or exceeding quota.
- Closed complex, high-value deals ($200K+ ACV) with long, multi-stakeholder sales cycles involving procurement, legal, and security review.
- Existing relationships with CISOs, VM leaders, or Threat Intel decision-makers—people who would take your call.
- Experience building and managing a partner-influenced pipeline (technology and reseller partners), not just direct deals.
- Consultative, technically credible approach: you can go deep enough with security practitioners to earn trust, then translate that into a commercial conversation.
- Disciplined in Salesforce hygiene and forecasting; leadership can trust your pipeline numbers.
Qualifications
- Experience selling within one or more of the following domains: Attack Surface Management (ASM), Vulnerability Management (VM), or Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI).
- Existing relationships with CISOs and senior security leaders.
- Experience selling into financial services or critical infrastructure organizations.
- Familiarity with vulnerability feeds, CVE scoring systems, or exploit marketplaces.
- Experience working in hybrid or distributed teams.
Benefits
- Generous, flexible time off.
- Retirement/pension plan contributions (e.g., 401k with match in the US; local pension schemes elsewhere).
- Comprehensive healthcare coverage.
- Generous paid parental leave.
- Remote-friendly environment with flexibility.
- Support for home office costs (phone & internet).
- Ongoing professional development, coaching, and learning resources.
- Opportunities for career advancement within a fast-growing team.
