Adaptive Security was looking for a Growth Account Executive

Adaptive Security is hiring a Growth Account Executive to own revenue expansion within our existing customer base. You will be a founding member of the Growth team, shaping the playbooks, pricing strategies, and processes for scaling renewal and upsell revenue.

What You'll Do

  • Own the full renewal cycle, including pricing, value-based conversations, and contract negotiation
  • Drive revenue growth through strategic upsells, cross-sells, and account expansion opportunities
  • Proactively identify and execute expansion opportunities within a book of existing mid-market and enterprise customers
  • Increase ACV at renewal by clearly articulating ROI and aligning solutions to evolving customer needs
  • Sell new Adaptive product SKUs into existing accounts while maintaining strong retention outcomes
  • Build and maintain trusted relationships with key stakeholders across technical teams, security leadership, and the C-suite
  • Lead complex, multi-stakeholder deal cycles and negotiate strategic, multi-product agreements
  • Partner closely with Customer Success, Product, and Sales leadership to refine growth playbooks, forecasting, and the transition from net-new to expansion ownership

What We're Looking For

  • At least 4+ years of SaaS sales experience (SMB/Mid-Market/Enterprise)
  • Proven experience upselling within an existing book of business
  • Demonstrated success meeting or exceeding revenue and renewal targets
  • Strong experience negotiating pricing and leading value-based renewal conversations
  • Strong presentation and communication skills — able to influence from ICs to C-suite
  • Analytical in understanding customer needs, yet creative in driving expansion strategy
  • Highly proactive — you don’t wait for opportunities; you create them
  • Thrive in ambiguity and enjoy building processes from scratch
  • Roll-up-your-sleeves mentality with a strong sense of ownership

Nice to Have

  • Open to quota-carrying Account Managers with multi-SKU selling experience
  • Comfortable working with technical buyers (cybersecurity background a strong plus)

Team & Environment

You will be a founding member of the Growth Sales team, reporting to the VP of Growth Sales. You will help build the team's playbooks and expansion processes from the ground up.

Benefits & Compensation

  • Equity in a venture-backed company led by repeat founders
  • Competitive comp with uncapped commission
  • Premium healthcare and wellness benefits
  • A no-politics, all-in culture where speed, ownership, and quality win

Adaptive Security is an equal opportunity employer.
