  • Conduct regular client reviews, assess satisfaction levels, and propose enhancements to further meet client objectives.

  • Network via industry user groups, tabletop events and key industry conferences.

  • Negotiate contract terms, pricing and service agreements while ensuring alignment with both organizational and client objectives.

  • Collaborate with internal stakeholders to optimize sales processes, streamline communications, and enhance overall client experience.

  • Create an overall development plan for success for the territory.

  • Sustain a pipeline of suitable appointments and move prospects through the sales process quickly and efficiently.

Skills and Qualifications:

  • Demonstrated ability to drive revenue growth and meet or exceed sales targets.

  • Previous experience as a quota-carrying sales representative, preferably endpoint cybersecurity solutions.

  • Ability to establish and maintain client and executive-level relationships, focusing on their success and long-term partnerships.

  • Ability to qualify leads based on key success metrics.

  • Proficient in conducting and leading negotiations for procurement and legal agreements, showcasing expertise in driving favorable terms and agreements.

  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills to convey complex concepts in a clear and compelling manner to clients.

  • Ability to engage with a variety of technical and business leaders.

  • Superb organizational and reporting skills.

  • Self-motivation, drive, initiative, and a confident sales approach.

  • Prior startup experience and/or a strong working knowledge of the endpoint cybersecurity space will be a definite benefit to your application.

Halcyon offers the following benefits to eligible employees:

  • Comprehensive healthcare (medical, dental, and vision) with premiums paid in full for employees and dependents.

  • 401k plan with a generous employer contribution.

  • Short and long-term disability coverage, basic life and AD&D insurance plans.

Safe Remote Job Search Tips

Verify Employer Thoroughly

Research the company's identity thoroughly before applying. Check for a professional website with contacts, active social media, and LinkedIn profiles. Verify details across platforms and look for reviews on Glassdoor or Trustpilot to confirm legitimacy.

Never Pay to Get a Job

Legitimate employers never require payment for applications, training, background checks, or equipment. Always reject upfront payment requests or demands for bank details, even if they claim it's for purchasing necessary work gear on your behalf.

Safeguard Your Personal Information

Protect sensitive data like SSN, bank details, or ID copies. Share this only after accepting a formal, written job offer. Ensure it's submitted via a secure company system or portal, never through insecure channels like standard email attachments.

Scrutinize Communication & Interviews

Watch for communication red flags: poor grammar, generic emails (@gmail), vague details, or undue pressure. Be highly suspicious of interviews held only via text or chat apps; legitimate companies typically use video or phone calls.

Beware of Unrealistic Offers

If an offer's salary or benefits seem unrealistically high for the work involved, be cautious. Research standard pay for similar roles. Offers that appear 'too good to be true' are often scams designed to lure you into providing information or payment.

Insist on a Formal Contract

Always secure and review a formal, written job offer or employment contract before starting work or sharing final personal details. Ensure it clearly defines your role, compensation, key terms, and conditions to avoid misunderstandings or scams.
