Account Executive
Location: Remote, United States
Type: Full-Time
Compensation:$130K to $155K base salary, $260K to $310K+ OTE, uncapped commission, equity
Industry: Privacy, Cybersecurity, Data Removal, Enterprise Risk
About the Company
Our client is a fast-growing privacy and data-removal company helping organizations protect executives, employees, and high-risk teams from exposed personal information online.
Their platform scans the open web for personally identifiable information, helps remove that data from brokers and public sources, and gives companies ongoing visibility into what has been found, removed, and what reappears over time.
They sell into organizations where privacy, cybersecurity, executive protection, legal risk, and employee safety matter. This includes law firms, corporate security teams, executive-protection firms, cyber-insurance providers, benefits brokers, PEOs, and enterprise organizations.
About the Role
This is a Founding Account Executive role and the company's first dedicated revenue hire.
This is not a role where you inherit a large sales team, SDR team, or marketing engine. This is for a proven seller who can self-source pipeline, open doors, run complex sales cycles, and close revenue.
You will work directly with the founder and leadership team, help build the sales motion, close the first major wave of enterprise and channel deals, and create the playbook for the future sales team.
For the right person, this role has a clear path into sales leadership and potentially a future CRO-level opportunity based on results.
What You'll Be Doing

Own the full sales cycle from first conversation to procurement, legal, and close

Build your own pipeline through outbound, warm introductions, existing relationships, events, and channel partners

Open named target accounts quickly using your existing network

Sell into buyers across Security, Legal, HR, Benefits, Executive Protection, and Corporate Risk

Target direct enterprise opportunities, law firms, executive-protection firms, cyber-insurance carriers, benefits brokers, PEOs, and channel partners

Work closely with the founder on early deals, then take full ownership of the sales process

Help document what works so the company can build a repeatable sales playbook

Bring real market feedback into the business from buyers, partners, and prospects

What We're Looking For

7 to 12 years of B2B sales experience

Proven success as a top-performing individual contributor

Experience selling into cybersecurity, privacy, data protection, digital risk, HR tech, compliance, cyber insurance, enterprise SaaS, or a related space

Strong ability to self-source pipeline without relying on SDRs or marketing

Experience selling to senior decision-makers such as CISOs, CIOs, General Counsel, COOs, CHROs, corporate security leaders, legal teams, or HR/benefits leaders

A strong network in cybersecurity, law firms, executive protection, family offices, benefits, insurance, or enterprise risk is a major asset

Proven ability to run complex, multi-stakeholder deals

Comfortable selling remotely and managing your own day without heavy oversight

Strong track record of quota achievement, President's Club, top rep rankings, or documented sales success

Builder mindset with leadership ambition, but still willing to personally do the selling

Compensation

Base Salary:$130K to $155K max

Target OTE:$260K to $310K+

Commission: Uncapped, with accelerators above quota

Equity: Meaningful equity package available

Growth Path: Opportunity to grow into sales leadership based on closed revenue and performance

Why This Role Is Different
This is a rare opportunity to join a company early, sell a product that solves a real cybersecurity and privacy problem, and build something from the ground up.
The company already has a working product, real enterprise revenue, channel opportunities, and buyers who understand the problem. Now they need the first true sales producer who can bring the market in.
If you are a proven closer who knows how to open doors, build pipeline, and close complex B2B deals, this could be a strong fit.
How to Apply
Please apply with your resume and a short note outlining your sales track record, the markets you have sold into, and the types of accounts you believe you could open quickly.
