Role
Who you are
- At least 3 years of experience with a proven track record in B2B SaaS sales, ideally in the cybersecurity sector
- Strong self-motivation, curiosity, and a genuine passion for technology
- The ability to grasp complex solutions and communicate them in a clear and compelling way
- A structured, goal-oriented approach combined with enthusiasm for teamwork and shared success
- Fluency in Dutch and English (written and spoken)
What the job involves
- As an Account Executive, you’ll be at the forefront of Eye Security’s growth in the Dutch midmarket. This is a role where ambition meets purpose - you won’t just sell cybersecurity solutions; you’ll help businesses protect what matters most
- You’ll combine strategic thinking with a consultative sales approach, building strong, long-term partnerships with clients. From your first outreach to closing the deal, you’ll guide organizations through their cybersecurity journey and position Eye Security as their trusted advisor
- Working alongside an experienced and supportive team, you’ll have the freedom to take ownership, shape your market, and make a tangible impact on how mid-sized companies approach digital security
- Manage the entire sales cycle - from identifying opportunities and initial outreach to negotiating and closing managed security contracts
- Advise IT and business decision-makers on technical, organizational, and regulatory security topics
- Develop new business opportunities
- Collaborate with internal specialists and channel partners to deliver proven, standardized security services tailored to the midmarket
Our take
Eye Security was founded by a trio of Dutch Security Services and Intelligence experts, who wanted to combine round-the-clock cyber security with built-in cyber insurance in one platform. Small businesses are the top priority for the company, as these organisations lose billions in damages related to cyber attacks every year.
With hundreds of customers across a wide array of industries, Eye Security’s proposition is a subscription model, making it more manageable for small businesses. Beyond its flagship cyber security and insurtech solution, the company also offers more tailored packages and industry-specific solutions, further widening its appeal.
It is this suitability for many industries that makes Eye Security stand out, and it has attracted substantial investment from the likes of JP Morgan. Interestingly, this will be used to consolidate its presence in European markets, rather than expanding into the likes of North America - where it would likely meet fierce competition from native companies.
