Your role

The Managed Security Services (MSS) market is experiencing explosive growth—projected at 12-15% CAGR through 2028. As a Sales Director at Deloitte, you’ll own a multi-million-dollar sales pipeline, lead complex enterprise deals, and shape the future of how organizations defend against evolving cyber threats.

This is NOT just a transactional sales role. This is a strategic sales leadership position where you’ll:

• Shape go-to-market strategy for emerging MSS offerings and disruptive security trends

Enterprise Sales Leadership

• Qualify, shape, and close complex deals (€1M-€10M+) with C-suite decision-makers
• Position cybersecurity as business risk management, not a technical product—speaking the language of CISOs, CFOs, CROs, and CEOs
• Navigate 6-18 month sales cycles with multiple stakeholders, competing priorities, and complex procurement processes
• Develop strategic account plans for target enterprises and identifying expansion opportunities within existing clients

Collaboration & Innovation

• Partner with account and delivery leadership to ensure deal quality, innovative solutions, and client success
• Influence product and service strategy by bringing market intelligence, competitive insights, and client feedback
• Leverage Deloitte’s global network to access resources, thought leadership, productive relationships and cross-border opportunities
• Drive process improvement initiatives that strengthen Deloitte’s competitive positioning

Client Relationship Excellence

• Serve as trusted advisor to key accounts, understanding their business objectives and evolving threat landscape
• Build lasting relationships with security leaders, risk officers, and business executives
• Develop strategic partnerships with key accounts, positioning Deloitte as an indispensable partner in their cyber transformation journey
