This role offers a clear path to senior leadership, with opportunities to lead a regional sales team, influence product strategy, and become a thought leader in the privacy‑tech ecosystem.

Required: 8+ years of B2B enterprise sales experience in SaaS, strong grasp of privacy‑tech or risk‑management solutions, proven ability to navigate multi‑stakeholder buying groups, and exceptional communication and negotiation skills.
