About The Role
As an Account Director Enterprise at Qualys, you will be responsible for driving growth and expanding relationships with our most strategic enterprise customers across the UK & Ireland. In this overlay role, you will partner closely with our Technical Account Managers (TAMs), who manage day-to-day account health and technical relationships. While TAMs often have strong operational and technical contacts, your focus will be to broaden and elevate engagement into the business and executive levels — helping customers connect cybersecurity investments to measurable risk reduction and financial impact.
Leveraging Qualys’ Risk-based approach and Risk Operations Center (ROC) positioning, you will guide enterprises in streamlining their cyber risk management. By linking security outcomes to business value, you’ll create clear opportunities for upsell and cross-sell across our platform.
This role blends strategic account leadership with a consultative, risk-oriented sales approach. You will act as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders and C-level executives, while also being a results-driven sales professional responsible for expanding account strategies together with the TAMs and regional leadership.
