Role Overview

We are hiring an Account Executive to support Centraleyes’ U.S. enterprise sales efforts. This role focuses on building enterprise pipeline from scratch and closing complex, multi‑stakeholder deals, and works closely with the CEO, product, and engineering teams on strategic opportunities.

  • Apply structured deal qualification (MEDDPICC or equivalent) to manage, control, and forecast opportunities
  • Contribute to establishing and refining Centraleyes’ enterprise sales motion
  • Support day‑to‑day sales operations related to pipeline development, deal execution, and strategic accounts


What We’re Looking For

  • Experience in a startup or early‑stage company, with demonstrated success owning outcomes without established playbooks, inbound support, or heavy enablement
  • Experience as an enterprise Account Executive owning complex, long‑cycle sales processes
  • Proven track record as a hunter, with direct experience building pipeline through outbound efforts
  • Background selling into security, risk, compliance, or governance teams
  • Experience selling GRC, cybersecurity, compliance, or adjacent enterprise SaaS solutions
  • Ability to work effectively with executive stakeholders and cross‑functional teams


What Makes This Role Compelling

  • Significant ownership and accountability in a mission‑critical revenue role
  • Direct impact on enterprise growth and company trajectory with potential to evolve into future sales leadership opportunities
