On behalf of our client, we’re seeking three exceptional Enterprise Account Executives to join an innovative cybersecurity startup operating at the forefront of runtime security and AI agent protection.
Its platform helps organisations securely adopt and operate AI agents by providing continuous visibility, control and protection while applications and agents are running. This enables security teams to identify threats, enforce policies and reduce risk across increasingly complex AI environments.
This is a rare opportunity to join an early-stage business tackling one of the most important emerging challenges in cybersecurity, alongside an experienced team building a genuinely differentiated platform.

You’ll be responsible for generating pipeline, opening strategic accounts and closing complex opportunities with security, AI and technical stakeholders. This is a true new-business role for an accomplished cybersecurity seller who is excited by emerging technology and the opportunity to help shape an early-stage go-to-market strategy.

- Consistently achieve and exceed revenue targets.
- Collaborate closely with founders, Sales Engineering, Product and Marketing to progress opportunities.
- Bring customer feedback and market intelligence into the business to help shape the product and go-to-market strategy.
- Maintain accurate forecasting, pipeline visibility and account plans.
- Help establish repeatable sales processes and playbooks as the commercial team grows.
What We’re Looking For:
- Six to seven years of cybersecurity sales experience.
- At least four years of experience selling enterprise cybersecurity solutions.
- A strong track record of meeting and exceeding quota in a new-business role.
- Experience selling runtime security, application security, cloud security, AI security or AI agent technology is strongly preferred.
- Previous experience within a startup or high-growth technology company is preferred.
- A proven ability to create pipeline and open strategic enterprise accounts.
- Experience selling to CISOs, security teams, engineering leaders and technical stakeholders.
- Confidence navigating complex, multi-threaded enterprise sales cycles.
