Account Manager

Cybersecurity is one of the fastest-growing markets of our time – and at Orange Cyberdefense, we are growing with it. We are now looking for an Account Manager for Region East (Stockholm) who is not satisfied with being good – you want to be the best. You measure yourself against yourself, you hate losing, and you get back up faster than you fall.

About the role

As an Account Manager in Region East, you own your pipeline, which you build from the ground up. You drive the entire sales process – from identifying and engaging new prospects to developing and deepening existing customer relationships.

You will work for a company with some of Sweden’s strongest brands across both the private and public sectors. Your role is to understand the challenges these customers face and match them with the right cybersecurity solutions.

This is a complex business environment with high stakes and customers who expect a high-level advisory partner. It requires you to be knowledgeable, persistent, and able to maintain momentum – regardless of how long the sales cycle is.

You report to the Sales Manager and work closely with our technical specialists, presales resources, and consulting delivery teams. But your pipeline? That’s your responsibility.

Your main responsibilities

🎯 Own and drive your pipeline – from initial prospecting to signed agreement and beyond

🔥 Proactive outreach – you don’t wait for inbound leads; you create your own opportunities

🤝 Build long-term customer relationships – you are the customer’s primary contact and strategic partner

🔍 Identify and explore customer needs – and match them with the right cybersecurity solutions

📋 Lead negotiations – proposals, tenders, and contracts with precision and commercial acumen

🤜 Collaborate with specialists and consulting delivery – to ensure you deliver on your promises

🏗️ Build relationships with strategic vendors – and leverage them to strengthen your business opportunities

Who are you?

You are competitive – but you understand that the best business relationships are built on trust, not pressure. You combine relentless drive with the ability to listen, understand, and create genuine value for your customers.

You have a high personal pace and thrive when juggling multiple priorities at the same time. You are self-driven, structured, and always know exactly where you stand against your targets. You don’t need someone to remind you to follow up. You’ve already done it.

You are someone who never gives up on a deal – not because you are stubborn, but because you genuinely believe in the value you deliver and are willing to work to prove it. You see a “no” as an opportunity to understand more, not as a dead end.

You thrive in an environment where things move quickly, change is the norm, and you are expected to take initiative every day. You are down-to-earth and have no need for prestige – but you have an inner drive that never switches off.

This is a must:

✅ Demonstrably high personal drive – you have the numbers and results to prove it

✅ Experience in B2B sales, preferably within service sales involving complex deals

✅ A winning mindset – you measure yourself against your targets and deliver results

✅ The ability to independently manage your pipeline from prospect to closed deal

✅ Strong communication skills – you listen just as well as you act

✅ Fluent Swedish and English, both spoken and written

✅ Comfortable working at a fast pace and seeing challenges as fuel rather than obstacles

This is a plus:

⭐ Experience from the IT or cybersecurity industry

⭐ Experience in solution selling with long sales cycles and multiple decision-makers

⭐ Experience selling to the public sector (LOU/tender processes)
