Why it matters: OTE tells you what you could earn. Attainment tells you how realistic it is.

Ask: “What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?”

Questions to ask on the first call

Built from what this posting leaves out. How they answer tells you as much as what they say.

  1. 1.

    What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?

    OTE is what you could earn. This is how likely you are to earn it.

  2. 2.

    What percentage of reps on the team have been here more than 18 months?

    Tenure shows whether people stay long enough to get paid.

  3. 3.

    Has the comp plan changed in the last 12 to 18 months? What changed?

    A plan that changes every year means the goalposts keep moving.

  4. 4.

    Who sits with reps and reviews calls each week?

    Coaching is often what's behind a good or bad attainment number.

  5. 5.

    What are the base and the OTE for this role?

    No point investing hours before you know the number.

  6. 6.

    Why is this role open? Did someone leave, or is it new?

    New headcount is growth. A replacement means someone left. Ask why.

› When the offer comes

Save these for later. They land better once they've said yes to you.

  1. 1.

    Can I see the full comp plan in writing, including clawbacks and accelerators?

    What's in writing is what gets paid. Read it before you sign.

  2. 2.

    Can I see the actual comp distribution for the team last year, not just the OTE?

    The spread shows what most reps really take home. OTE is just the target.

  3. 3.

    I'd be walking away from earned commission to join. Is there room for a sign-on bonus to help cover that?

    Leaving money behind is a fair reason to ask. The worst answer is no.

Full posting
Here's the full job description, keeping the original flow and blending in the retention metrics and cybersecurity experience: About BreachLock BreachLock is a global leader in offensive security, helping organizations proactively reduce cyber risk through Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS), Attack Surface Management (ASM), Adversarial Exposure Validation (AEV), and Red Teaming. Our unified platform combines expert-led testing with continuous, automated validation to give organizations real-time visibility into exploitable risks across their environments. Trusted by enterprises worldwide, BreachLock delivers attacker-perspective insights that help security teams prioritize what matters most and stay ahead of evolving threats. The Opportunity BreachLock is looking for a proactive, self-directed Senior Account Manager to lead growth within our existing enterprise customer base. This role focuses entirely on current accounts, not net-new logo acquisition. You will own a portfolio of large, established accounts and drive measurable expansion through new stakeholders, new business units, new use cases, and increased contract value, while protecting and growing retention across your book. Success in this role depends on spotting opportunity before it's obvious, building relationship depth across each account, and working closely with our Delivery team to make sure what we sell is delivered well, so that strong delivery becomes the springboard for the next expansion conversation. Key Responsibilities - Own a portfolio of large, existing enterprise accounts and build multi-year account growth strategies - Own retention and expansion results for your book of business, including Gross Revenue Retention (GRR), Net Revenue Retention (NRR), and renewal rate - Proactively identify and build relationships with new stakeholders within accounts, including security, IT, procurement, compliance, and business-unit leaders, beyond the initial point of contact - Drive expansion revenue through upsell, cross-sell, and broader adoption of BreachLock services across business units and geographies - Conduct account mapping and whitespace analysis to surface untapped budget and stakeholder influence - Partner closely with the Delivery/Engagement organization to monitor project health, flag renewal risk early, and turn delivery outcomes into expansion opportunities - Manage a high-volume, diverse account portfolio while maintaining strategic depth on top accounts - Own forecasting, pipeline accuracy, and renewal/expansion contract negotiations for your book of business - Serve as the internal point of coordination across sales engineering, delivery, and leadership for your accounts Requirements Required Qualifications - 10+ years of experience in account management, client success, or enterprise sales - Experience at a cybersecurity company, ideally a penetration testing, PTaaS, or offensive security services provider - Demonstrated success expanding existing accounts (not solely net-new sales), with quantifiable results such as NRR of 110%+ and GRR of 90%+ - A track record of proactive account growth, identifying and pursuing new stakeholders and opportunities without being prompted - Experience in a high-growth or scaleup environment, with comfort operating amid ambiguity and evolving processes - Proven ability to manage a large and varied portfolio of enterprise accounts concurrently - Track record of close, effective collaboration with delivery or professional services teams - Strong experience navigating complex enterprise buying committees and multi-threaded relationships - Executive presence, with the ability to build credibility with senior security leaders (CISO-level) as well as day-to-day practitioners Preferred Qualifications - Strong working knowledge of penetration testing, red teaming, attack surface management, or vulnerability management services - An existing network of CISOs or senior security leaders at large enterprises - Familiarity with account-based expansion methodologies and stakeholder-mapping tools Equal Employment Opportunity BreachLock is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
