Why this role

You already know what it’s like to work in sales development.

You’ve booked meetings.
You’ve handled rejection.
You’ve learned the basics of outbound.

What you’re looking for now is a role that helps you level up - in skill, confidence, and long-term career options.

At Hoxhunt, we’re building the DACH market in a cybersecurity category that truly matters: human-centric security. We’re looking for an SDR who wants their next role to be more than just activity and targets - a role that builds strong foundations for future growth.

About Hoxhunt

Cybersecurity isn’t just about technology, it’s about human behavior.

Hoxhunt helps organizations turn employees into cyber defenders through behavior-driven training that actually changes how people act. Since 2016, we’ve grown into one of Europe’s fastest-growing SaaS scale-ups (growing over 50% year-on-year), trusted by over 4 million users worldwide.

Today, we’re a 230+ person global team across Finland, the US, and beyond, united by one purpose: empowering people to be the strongest link in cybersecurity.

Our culture is guided by three values we actually use in our day-to-day work:

• Hungry for feedback

• Courage to take initiative

• We succeed together

The role

As a Sales Development Representative focusing on the DACH region, you’ll be the first point of contact for many of our future customers.

You’ll research accounts, engage CISOs and senior security leaders, and start high-quality conversations that turn into real sales opportunities. This role combines structured outbound work with hands-on exposure to how enterprise-level security conversations are built - from first touch to real, qualified pipeline.

You’ll be trained, supported, and challenged - and expected to grow.
