We're a product-first team on a mission to help grow the cybersecurity culture 🔐
We want to instill cybersecurity good practices to employees in a way that's actually effective, and entertaining enough so that employees don't feel like they're working. Think Duolingo but for cybersecurity.
We created a platform to easily rollout a cybersecurity awareness program: the platform sends chat-based 4-minutes long courses to teams. Following the courses, the other side of the platform simulates phishing attacks, to prepare employees to face hackers, but in a safe environment.
Created in 2020, Riot has raised $45m with leading investors (Y Combinator, Left Lane, Base10, Funders Club and Frst Capital) and is now protecting more than 2,000,000 employees in over 2,000 companies (including Sisal, Edison, Coop and LastMinute) all over the world.
Cybersecurity is everywhere. It's impacting everyone, everyday, and it's becoming the number one risk to any organization, whether it's a small business or a big firm. Yet, the cybersecurity culture in most companies is a disaster. Hackers are leveraging this by targeting the weakest link: the employees. We're on a mission to fix that.
This role comes at a key moment for Riot in Italy. We went from $0 to $1M ARR and closed some of the most recognized Italian brands. The market is responding fast, and now we need to scale.
Reporting to Andrea, our Country Manager Italy, you will lead a team of 6 to 8 Mid-Market Account Executives. The mission is straightforward: build a high performing team that consistently delivers, not accidentally, but predictably.
That means setting clear activity standards and strong fundamentals, by improving conversion rates at every stage, maintaining high-quality pipeline, ensuring forecast accuracy, and driving disciplined deal execution. You will act as a true player-coach and hands-on manager, coaching the team daily and helping them grow.
Your mission is to scale a high-impact sales team for the Italian market by setting a clear vision for performance, ownership, and growth. You will create the conditions for success by equipping your team with the right mindset, structure, and support to consistently deliver results. Beyond performance, you will also support the growth of each individual, helping team members strengthen their skills and progress in their careers.
At RIOT, we believe that diversity drives innovation and inclusion fosters belonging. We are committed to building a team that reflects a wide range of perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences. We welcome candidates from all walks of life and are dedicated to creating an environment where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to thrive.
Please note that this is an on-site position with up to 2 days per month of remote work.

In today's world, most successful cyberattacks start by a human failure. We're making the platform that makes it easy to prepare your employees for cyberattacks, in a way they love.
