Role
Who you are
- Authentic: Does the right thing and does not oversell themselves or the customer, uses a consultative selling approach that promotes honesty and puts the customer first and solves their needs not his/her own
- Active Listener: Are completely present and engaged when they talk to prospects creating deeper and more meaningful conversations that build strong relationships and unlock more information about value and business outcomes
- Hard Worker: “A” players continue to cold call and prospect, a BDR just scales them. They are still working on the last day of the quarter, still contacting customers and setting meetings even though they hit their number, this ensures the next quarter is just as good as the last
- Proactive: Are they on top of it? Organization and an ability to lean-in can be hard to find. These traits indicate a sales person who can rectify a deal when it goes south and work independently. They show evidence of prior research (reviewing a website, try to understand the product, read a 10K), they follow up an interview and a sales call. They preempt issues. This is great relationship management that builds trust

- Can detail fundamental sales concepts of account planning
- Understand and use channel effectively
- Have adopted a sales process and qualification methodology
- Metric driven, can understand pipeline, deal sizing, targets and know them
- 10+ years of experience in enterprise software sales with a focus on hunter roles and new customer acquisition & pipeline growth
- 5+ years of experience working in the cyber security sales space
- Outstanding track record of success managing enterprise accounts and opportunities to closure, consistent over-attainment of quotas of $1M annual recurring revenue
- Proficient with and unafraid of 6 and 7 figure deals
- Strong network of established relationships with key industry and channel contacts in the assigned territory

Our take
Organizations understand the value of data and the value of business partnerships that will help them leverage it. However, involving more companies increases the risk of vulnerabilities, and therefore costly data breaches. SecurityScorecard is a cloud-based enterprise SaaS solution that helps organizations assess and manage cybersecurity risks, offering analyses of potential partner companies using A-F security ratings.
SecurityScorecard looms over its competitors as it covers millions of companies, offering near-instant cybersecurity analyses and an array of capabilities. It has a large, global, and big-name customer base, including 9 of the top 10 pharmaceutical companies and 9 of the top 10 banking institutions, and it is likely to go public in the next few years.
It has both developed and consolidated an impressive lead in a sector that will continue growing and rewarding cutting-edge security solutions. It looks set to remain an industry leader with demonstrable, accessible, and highly attractive customer offerings. In 2024, this included a supply chain cyber risk management platform - MAX - which is driving record revenue.
