Our work builds on more than 30 years of experience in analyzing malware and defending against advanced threats - expertise few security companies can match.\nIt's our people who make that possible. Newly independent after years as WithSecure's most autonomous business unit, we combine the focus and speed of a startup with decades of cybersecurity depth. We're a diverse team that values passion, purpose, and genuine wellbeing at work, and we're looking for people who want to set the standard for Salesforce security with us. If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.\nWe are looking for an\nAccount Executive\nto drive revenue growth for our Cloud Protection for Salesforce (CPSF) business across a named territory in EMEA. This is a quota-carrying, full-cycle sales role for someone who builds their own pipeline and closes their own deals. As an Account Executive, you'll own your territory end to end - from generating pipeline to closing revenue - for one of WithSecure's fastest-growing products. You'll run the full sales cycle, work alongside BDR, SE, and marketing in a pod model, and sell into Salesforce-heavy enterprises where security and platform owners increasingly demand native protection.\nKey Responsibilities\nConsistently meet or exceed quarterly and annual ARR targets.\nBuild and qualify pipeline through your own outbound, in partnership with BDR, and through marketing-sourced leads.\nRun the full sales cycle from discovery through close, applying MEDDPICC as the qualification standard.\nEngage and win over security and platform decision-makers (CISOs, IT Directors, Salesforce platform owners).\nBuild account strategies in partnership with BDR, SE, and marketing.\nRepresent CPSF in the Salesforce ecosystem (e.g., Dreamforce, regional industry events).\nMaintain accurate Salesforce hygiene and forecast on a weekly cadence.\nWhat are we looking for?\n5+ years in a quota-carrying B2B SaaS sales or Account Executive role; cybersecurity or the Salesforce ecosystem is a strong plus.\nA demonstrated track record of meeting or exceeding ARR / new-business targets.\nFull-cycle selling experience - you generate and close your own pipeline, not just work what's handed to you.\nFluency in a structured qualification method (MEDDPICC or similar) and the discipline to apply it.\nStrong communication skills (written & verbal) in English; additional languages are a plus.\nDisciplined CRM and forecasting habits; Salesforce experience preferred.\nComfort selling to both security/IT and business buyers and navigating enterprise procurement.\nIf you don’t tick every box above, don’t worry - we’re more interested in your potential and willingness to learn.\nThe salary displayed on this page represents the starting point for the role. Final compensation is discussed individually and depends on experience, skills, and the local market.\nWhat will you get from us\nMeaningful work with real-world impact - your work helps protect businesses and critical infrastructure from modern cyber threats.\nFlexible ways of working, including up to 30 days per year working abroad and paid sick leave from day one.\nA strong focus on well-being, with mental health support and comprehensive benefits.\nContinuous learning, modern tools, and a people-first culture that values trust and collaboration.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3462,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"All levels","optional":false}]},"benefits":["Continuous learning"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Cybersecurity","Cloud Security","Threat Intelligence"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-11T21:02:11Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":26,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.579,"p_room":0.45,"age_days":39,"expected_fill_days":22,"reasons":["conf:2","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-10-13T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/cloud-protection-account-executive","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/cloud-protection-account-executive.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-13T10:10:04Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":15491,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2236270},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2236270"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcloud-protection-account-executive"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcloud-protection-account-executive"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcloud-protection-account-executive"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/cloud-protection-account-executive\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcloud-protection-account-executive"}]}
