The "Internet of Things" (IoT) market is expected to grow to $19 trillion over the next 10 years as 50 billion devices are brought online. Aeris is at the forefront of this industry, building networks and applications to enable Fortune 500 clients to fundamentally improve their businesses. Headquartered in Silicon Valley with offices in San Jose, Chicago, London, Tokyo and Delhi as well as other markets, we are the leader for providing IoT connectivity management to Multi-National companies globally. We power critical IoT projects across automotive, energy, transportation, retail, healthcare and more industry verticals.

Our Company is in an enviable position. We have financial strength, and both our bottom line and our global reach are growing rapidly. We recently completed the acquisition of the Ericsson IoT business, giving us global market access via 30 CSP Channel Partners and a 6,000+ Enterprise customer base. While we continue to build upon our success in the IoT connectivity space, we are most excited to announce that we are launching a new business initiative around a groundbreaking Security offering. As the number of cellular connected IoT devices continues to grow, so does the threat landscape, attracting more interest from the hacking community than ever before. There were 112 billion malware attacks on IoT Devices in 2022, representing an 87% increase year on year. The market could be worth $650bn by 2030 according to McKinsey.

Therefore, we seek a Security Sales Director to drive revenue growth for our security solutions in the EMEA region. You will be focused on developing new business, managing relationships with Channel Partners, and working with enterprise customers to address their security needs. The ideal candidate is a sales professional with experience in security solutions, strong relationship-building skills, and the ability to work collaboratively across teams.

This position will report to the VP Security Sales and is/will be based in London.
