Job description

At Vanta, our mission is to help businesses earn and prove trust. We believe that security should be monitored and verified continuously, and we empower companies to practice better security and prove it with ease.

• Create and establish strategic prospecting training, conduct weekly forecasting meetings, and mentor your direct reports on strategies that can help create pipeline
• Help to continually foster an inclusive Sales organization representing Vanta's culture and values
• Ensure development plans are in place, adapted to each individual, and made useful in a way that ensures the ongoing development of talent within the organization
• Collaborate cross functionally to drive better outcomes for Vanta's prospects that have headquarters within NAMER

• Possess the technical competency to understand Vanta's software, the intellectual curiosity to want to learn about the world of governance, risk and compliance, and to build great relationships with highly technical prospects who are willing to rethink the paradigm in how security is achieved, and to enhance and evolve their own security programs
• Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for current or future employer sponsorship
• Open to using AI to amplify their skills and strengthen their work – demonstrating curiosity, a willingness to learn, and sound judgment in applying AI responsibly to improve efficiency and impact
