Account Executive (Growth)

About Workstreet

At Workstreet, we're on an exciting journey to help businesses scale securely by designing and implementing cutting-edge security and compliance programs. As a fast-growing company, we specialize in a wide range of global GRC (governance, risk, and compliance) services that support many frameworks like SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, CMMC, HIPAA, HITRUST, and FedRAMP. We empower companies to meet regulatory requirements and enhance their cybersecurity posture to build customer trust.

Get to know the Sales Team

We move fast; some people say it, but we mean it! This is a hypergrowth sales org — we are a like-minded collective of builders, doers, and high-agency individuals. We work on the leading edge with companies to solve their most critical security & compliance challenges. We often hear that we are the home of people's "favorite sales role they have ever had." If you want to be part of a team that moves fast — and wins doing it — you're in the right place.

The Opportunity

We're looking for a Growth Account Executive to join our growing GTM team. This role is built for a driven, high-velocity closer who wants to own a full sales cycle at the intersection of cybersecurity, compliance, and services. You'll become a trusted advisor to prospects — helping them understand and solve their compliance challenges, not just closing deals. You'll own the full sales cycle within our Growth Segment (50–400 FTE companies), managing a high volume of opportunities while developing deep expertise in security and compliance frameworks. You'll also be assigned specific partner relationships to own and grow over time, driving a co-sell pipeline alongside your direct sales motion. Our deals typically involve $40k-$50k ACVs, with an average sales cycle of 30-45 days.

What You'll Do

• Own the full sales cycle — manage deals independently from discovery through proposal, contracting, and close.
• Run a high-volume motion — manage 30-40 opportunities per month while consistently closing 10-15+ deals per month.
• Grow assigned partner relationships — own specific partner accounts, deepening those relationships over time and driving co-sell pipeline and revenue through them.
• Develop technical expertise — build deep knowledge in SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and other compliance frameworks to have meaningful, consultative conversations with prospects.
• Engage key stakeholders — build relationships with security leaders, compliance teams, and technical buyers at growing mid-market companies.
• Stay ahead of your pipeline — respond quickly, stay organized, and proactively drive deals forward rather than waiting on prospects.
• Collaborate and improve — contribute to refining our sales playbooks, messaging, and qualification criteria based on what you're learning in the field.

Who You Are

• Proven full-cycle closer — 3-5 years of Account Executive experience owning a full sales cycle (discovery → proposal → contracting → close).
• Mid-market seller — experience selling primarily to mid-market companies, ideally startups with 50-400 employees.
• High-volume performer — track record managing 30-40 opportunities a month while consistently closing 10-15+ deals a month, with average contract sizes around $40,000-$50,000 and a 30-45 day sales cycle.
• Partner-minded relationship builder — comfortable owning and growing assigned partner relationships over time, and driving pipeline through a co-sell motion.
• Highly responsive and organized — proactive in customer communication and disciplined about staying on top of a large, moving pipeline.
• Self-starter — thrives in a fast-paced startup environment and is comfortable operating with autonomy and some ambiguity.

What Will Help You Succeed

• Experience selling a service, rather than software.
• Experience building partner relationships and selling through or alongside a channel partner.
• Experience selling cybersecurity, compliance, GRC, SaaS, or technical services.
• Experience selling to technical buyers (CTOs, CISOs,
