Senior Account Executive

• Own full-cycle new-logo opportunities from first qualified meeting through discovery, technical

• evaluation and signature, sourced by SDR, Marketing, partners and your own prospecting.

• Self-source a meaningful share of your own pipeline; build an account plan from a cold list rather than relying on inbound or SDR support.

• Run multi-threaded discovery across security, engineering and economic buyers, uncovering pain that a single conversation would miss.

• Own commercial negotiation, procurement and security review through to signature, including

• competitive processes, without needing support from the CRO.

• Maintain an accurate weekly forecast, with commit-to-close accuracy within 10%, sustained over multiple quarters.

• Shape SDR intake criteria and the Customer Success handoff standard; informally mentor newer Account Executives on deal strategy and technical positioning.

• Hand off cleanly to Customer Success at close, with deal-stage commitments documented in the CRM.

• 5–7+ years' full-cycle closing experience in B2B SaaS, ideally selling a technical product, not a service, into security or engineering buyers.

• A demonstrable track record of carrying and hitting quota of £750k–£1m+, at or above 100% in at least two of the last three years.

• Genuine consultative selling skill: comfortable asking why before pitching how, and building a business case from first principles rather than a script.

• Confidence selling into accounts where Cytix has little or no existing brand presence, building

• credibility through the conversation itself rather than a logo slide.

• A track record of pushing through setbacks and coming back stronger, and of actively seeking out the harder, less familiar deals rather than waiting to be asked.

• Genuinely bright and inquisitive: you ask sharp questions, pick things up fast, and enjoy getting to the

• bottom of a problem, whether that's a prospect's business or how Cytix's product works under the hood.

• Drawn to a business where new challenges show up daily; you take ownership of them and lean in, rather than waiting for someone else to sort it out.

• Comfortable taking yourself out of your comfort zone: new deal types, new buyer personas, situations you haven't fully rehearsed.

• If Cytix wins, you should too.

•

• Drive electric through salary sacrifice

•

• A team where you can do your best work as yourself, no asterisks.

• Software never stops changing. Teams ship new code every day, through tickets, pull requests, releases, and increasingly with AI in the mix, but the way security keeps up with all that change hasn't really moved on. That's the problem we're solving. Cytix helps organisations understand which software changes actually matter, what should happen next, and how to prove the right call was made. Security understood, in other words.

We're a small team with big plans, so every person we hire genuinely shapes what Cytix becomes. That's why we're upfront about our five values: we interview for all of them, and they matter to us more than a perfect CV. They're things you do, not things you are, so have a read and see if they sound like you.

You care about the mission but don't take yourself too seriously. You say 'I' when things go wrong and 'we' when they go right, trust teammates to do things their own way, and bring a bit of humour when the pressure's on.
