Posted on Monday, May 9, 2022
Secureframe is on a mission to help organizations build trust and stay secure at every stage of growth. With increased data breaches and cyberattacks across industries, companies are demanding higher security and compliance standards from their vendors, but getting compliant can take a year or more, slowing a company’s speed-to-market and sales.
Secureframe’s security compliance automation platform enables any organization to have rigorous security and compliance practices without the need to be security experts. Secureframe is a Series B company (read our release) backed by top VCs including Kleiner Perkins, Accomplice, Gradient Ventures (Google’s AI Fund), BoxGroup, Village Global, and many more.
You will drive Secureframe’s future growth by sourcing, qualifying, and building relationships with prospective clients and turning them into engaged and delighted Secureframe customers. You are an adept salesperson engaging in both technical and business conversations at multiple levels of the organization, including C & VP-level executives. You are biased towards winning business by analytically showing how a client's business model benefits from partnering with Secureframe. You thrive in extremely fast-paced environments, enjoy collaborating with driven colleagues to make the company a success and are always looking for opportunities to add value and level up the business.
This role is fully remote in the United Kingdom.

What you’ll do

  • Continue to build the foundation for strategic sales in a fast growing startup
  • Hunt for new business in new verticals and markets
  • Own the full sales cycle—from prospect, to pilots, to negotiations and deal execution
  • Partner with customer success and product teams to ensure pilots are successful and that feature requests are heard
  • Partner with leadership to help develop and execute on new verticals and use cases
  • Lead and contribute to team projects to develop and refine our sales process

Who we’re looking for

  • 2+ experience in sales, preferably at an enterprise software company
  • 1+ closing annual contracts of at least $10k/year
  • Successful experience in selling a complex software service to engineering organizations
  • Experience selling to technical buyers
  • Ability to understand Secureframe’s product and build great relationships with highly technical customers
  • Proven negotiation and closing skills
  • Ability to identify high-probability customers and high-value verticals to go after
  • Prior experience at a fast-paced startup and ability to work well in unstructured environments

Nice to haves

  • Prior experience with security technology
  • Technical background, ideally as a sales engineer or technical educational programmer
