Insight Assurance is a global audit firm on a mission to transform how organizations achieve cybersecurity and compliance. Founded by former Big 4 (EY) professionals, we deliver next-generation audit services across SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS (QSA), HITRUST, CMMC (C3PAO), and FedRAMP (3PAO) frameworks.
We’re not your traditional audit firm — we’re tech-enabled, leveraging compliance automation and advanced collaboration tools to make audits faster, smarter, and more impactful for our clients.
Recognized on the Inc. 5000 and Fast 50 lists, Insight Assurance is one of the fastest-growing global audit firms, with 170+ professionals supporting nearly 2,000 clients across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC.
Role Overview
This is a strategic, consultative enterprise sales role — not a transactional one. You'll own a portfolio of named enterprise accounts and greenfield opportunities across key verticals (healthcare, financial services, technology, DoD/DIB, government contracting), running complex 6–18-month sales cycles and building C-suite relationships that generate long-term, multi-service revenue. You know the compliance landscape, command a boardroom, and close enterprise deals that others can't.
Key Responsibilities
Pipeline & Revenue
- Own a named account list and enterprise territory — build and execute an account strategy that penetrates high-value targets across assigned verticals.
- Drive the full sales cycle from outreach through close — managing multi-stakeholder opportunities, MSA and SOW negotiation, and multi-year contract terms.
- Consistently achieve and exceed quarterly and annual revenue quotas; maintain accurate pipeline forecasting and deal-stage discipline in CRM.
- Generate enterprise pipeline through outbound prospecting, executive referrals, partner channels, and industry events.
Executive Relationships
- Build trusted advisor relationships with CISOs, CTOs, CFOs, and Heads of Compliance — developing multi-threaded engagement across the buying committee.
- Develop deep account intelligence on organizational structure, compliance obligations, and risk priorities — connecting Insight Assurance's services to each client's strategic outcomes.
- Maintain executive visibility and preference throughout long procurement timelines; map and manage champions, influencers, and economic buyers within every target account.
Consultative Selling & Positioning
- Lead discovery conversations that uncover compliance obligations, audit timelines, multi-framework needs, and risk drivers that create urgency and justify investment.
- Position the full IA service portfolio — SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, HITRUST, CMMC, FedRAMP, penetration testing — as integrated solutions tailored to each enterprise client's compliance architecture.
