This is a unique opportunity to become Pentera’s first representative in Austria, playing a key role in establishing our presence and footprint in the country.

The role is perfect for someone with strong cybersecurity sales experience, a technical background, and a passion for building new business: including opening new regions, launching partner ecosystems, and helping shape our go-to-market strategy from the ground up.

Role Responsibilities:

• Carry and exceed a direct sales quota (minimum 5 years of experience).
• Build and execute a go-to-market plan to deeply penetrate key accounts in the region.
• Open and grow the territory — including developing regional partner networks and new logos.
• Work hands-on with prospects: lead demos, complex pilots, and solution validation processes.
• Manage the full sales cycle: from lead qualification to contract close.
• Identify, onboard, and manage relationships with channel partners (resellers/ distributors).
• Act as a trusted advisor to enterprise customers and ensure long-term success.
• Own forecasting, pipeline management, and reporting to the Director of Sales.

Requirements: 

• At least 2 years of quota-carrying field sales in tech, preferably cybersecurity.
• Proven success in building and growing new markets or regions 
• Experience working closely with and managing partner channels.
• A technical background or a formal education in software, computer science, or technology – preferred.
• Ability to understand business needs and map them to technical solutions.
• Consultative sales approach with strong communication and value-based selling.
• Experience with Salesforce or similar CRM systems.
• Native-level German and fluent English – spoken and written.
• Based in Austria or Bavaria, with the ability to work independently while staying closely connected to the team.
• Energetic, self-driven, and able to thrive in a high-growth, fast-paced environment.
