  • Stay current on technology ecosystem trends — including cybersecurity, OT, cloud, and AI — to bring informed, credible perspectives to client conversations

  • 5+ years of cybersecurity sales experience, including selling solutions and services such as Managed Security Services, Security Operations (SOC), Identity & Access Management (IAM), Cloud Security, Threat Detection & Response, or Cyber Risk offerings.
  • 2+ years of experience selling into, supporting, or working with Operational Technology (OT) environments, including industries such as manufacturing, utilities, energy, chemicals, transportation, oil & gas, or other critical infrastructure sectors.
  • 5+ years of quota-carrying sales experience, with a proven history of meeting or exceeding annual revenue targets of $4M-$7M or greater through disciplined pipeline management and deal execution.
  • 5+ years of experience developing net-new business within existing enterprise accounts, partnering with account teams to identify opportunities, build pipeline, and drive revenue growth.
  • 5+ years of experience leading commercial negotiations, proposal development, deal shaping, and contract discussions in complex enterprise sales environments
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent (minimum 12 years) work experience. (If Associate’s Degree, must have minimum 6 years work experience) 

 

Professional Skills Requirements

  • Build and sustain trusted relationships with senior client stakeholders, acting as a strategic advisor who understands their business priorities and technology needs
  • Navigate complex, matrixed organizations — both internally at Accenture and within client accounts — to align stakeholders and drive decisions that advance deals
  • Contribute to Accenture's Cybersecurity commercial practice—building reusable sales assets, methods, and client stories related to OT security

 

 

Bonus Points If:

  • You have experience in OT/ICS cybersecurity or critical infrastructure security roles
  • You have experience, with a demonstrated track record delivering OT security programs to Fortune/Global 1000 or critical infrastructure clients
