Okta is The World’s Identity Company. We free everyone to safely use any technology, anywhere, on any device or app. Our flexible and neutral products, Okta Platform and Auth0 Platform, provide secure access, authentication, and automation, placing identity at the core of business security and growth.
At Okta, we celebrate a variety of perspectives and experiences. We are not looking for someone who checks every single box - we’re looking for lifelong learners and people who can make us better with their unique experiences.
Join our team! We’re building a world where Identity belongs to you.
Okta is expanding. As we solidify our position as the world’s leading identity provider, we are looking for a high-energy, entrepreneurial Emerging Account Executive to join our growing Iberia team. This is a foundational role within a newly created territory, offering you the chance to make a direct impact on Okta’s footprint across Spain and Portugal.
This role is designed for a true "Hunter": your primary mission is to capture new logos and establish Okta as the standard for identity in the region, while strategically growing our existing install base.
What You Will Do- New Logo Acquisition: Act as the primary engine for growth in the Iberia region, focusing on identifying and closing new business opportunities within the Emerging segment (under 300 employees).
- Expansion & Growth: Manage and grow the existing install base, working with customers post-sale to accelerate adoption and identify upsell opportunities.
- Active Prospecting: Drive a high-volume outbound strategy to build a robust sales pipeline from scratch.
- Value-Based Selling: Navigate complex sales cycles and qualify opportunities using Okta’s sales methodology to ensure a perfect fit for the customer’s needs.
- Partner Ecosystem: Form long-term relationships with local resellers and system integrators to extend Okta’s market reach and drive regional adoption.
- Collaborative Selling: Partner closely with our Sales Engineers (SEs) to deliver compelling product demonstrations and technical validation that solve real-world customer problems.
- Marketing & Events: Actively collaborate with the Marketing team to drive attendance for regional events, webinars, and roundtables, turning field activity into a qualified sales pipeline.
- Travel: Ability to travel approximately 25% of the time to engage with customers and partners on-site.
What You Bring
- High Energy & Passion: You are genuinely excited about how technology—especially AI—is transforming the way organizations operate and secure themselves in the Digital Age.
- Hunter Mindset: You are a resilient, driven self-starter. You have experience in sourcing and outbounding and thrive in high-activity environments.
- Growth Mindset: You are a lifelong learner with a relentless desire to develop your sales craft; you are coachable, proactive in seeking feedback, and view every challenge as an opportunity to grow.
- SaaS Experience: A track record of success selling SaaS; experience in value-based selling at the C-level is essential.
- Team Player: A collaborative spirit with a desire to work alongside SEs and Marketing to win as a team.
- Ecosystem Awareness: A strong desire to build and nurture a professional network within the Spanish and Portuguese reseller and partner community.
- Communication: excellent verbal and written communication skills. Native or fluent Spanish and English are required. Proficiency in Portuguese is a plus.
You might also have:
- Understanding of and experience with Identity & Access Management, Single Sign-on and API-based solutions is always great but definitely not a must have
- BSc/BA degree or equivalent preferred (but not essential)
