Founding GTM Associate

Why this role exists

So Safe is Europe's leading human risk management company, trusted by 6,000+ organisations to turn their people into a line of defence against cyberattacks.

Adaptive Defence our next-generation product.

• We're co-building it with a small set of
• Design

Partners: co-creators, not beta testers validating a finished release, whose environment, risk model and workflows decide what we build next.

Getting them in the door, live, and talking is a hustle that doesn't exist yet inside So Safe.

We've got the distribution, the customer base, and 6,000+ logos of credibility.

What we don't have, for this product, is one person who can turn "nobody's heard of Adaptive Defence" into "we have a couple dozens committed co-creators shaping the roadmap." That's this role.

Title and tenure don't decide this.

Whether you can carry a cold prospect to a signed, engaged partner, alone, does.

If that's you, let's talk.

This role reports directly to our Senior Vice President of Product.

• What you'll own
• Position it Own the story: Trust is the product, one that proves behavioural change.
• Know Next Gen competitors like the back of your hand, and lead with their gaps in every conversation.
• Write messaging that gets a stranger to take a call, not messaging that survives a committee.
• Find them Your scope is net-new only, against a very tight ECP (Early Customer Profile).

Disqualify fast.

A missing hard filter is a "no," not a "maybe".

Existing customers and inbound prospects belong to CSM and AE, not you.

You don't chase or work them; you build net-new pipeline that fits the profile exactly.

• Land them Run the Agreement and Onboard stages yourself, collaborate closely with the Product trio.
• Hold the line on the
• Design

Partnership: time-boxed, scoped, conditional on an agreed commercial path.

Keep them Structure the handoff to Product so feedback lands with context, not as a pile of Slack messages.

Track partner health and stage progression like a pipeline.

Walk away with logo, testimonial and case study commitments locked into the agreement, not chased after the fact.

• What we’re looking for
• Non-negotiable
• You're AI-native. Agentic tools and LLMs are how you draft messaging, build lists, and personalise outbound at scale.
• You're fluent enough in what Adaptive Defence's own AI actually does that you can defend its autonomous decisions to a skeptical CISO.
• You've brought a new product to market before. Zero existing customers. You can talk through what we're building to get the first cohort in the door.
• You've done real outbound and can point to pipeline you built yourself, not campaigns you managed.
• You write direct copy that lands with strangers.
• There's no playbook here. You're building the first one.
• Strong signals
• You've built or configured the automation layer yourself, and it runs without a human touching every send.
• You've carried a deal or relationship solo, from first message to live and engaged, no handoffs.
• You've sold or partnered into security, compliance, or HR buyers before.
• Curious about cybersecurity and human risk on its own terms.
• You've worked inside a tight qualification framework (ICP/ECP-style) and know when to say no to a lead.
• Language proficiency in French (nice to have)
• What we’re not looking for
• People who need a campaign calendar before they'll pick up the phone.
• People who want positioning handed to them so they can just execute.
• People who expect a mature program, a finished agreement template, and a warm pipeline on day one. None of that exists yet.
• What you get
• Full ownership of the Design Partner funnel for a brand-new product.
• A direct line to the SVP of Product.
• No layers between you and the person deciding what happens next.
• A front-row seat on a Tiger Team.
• The first-mover's problem: whatever you build here becomes the playbook for future Design Partner motion So Safe runs after this one.

What we offer

• Work/Life balance: Flexible hours, 33 vacation days, and parental leave support
• Wellbeing and financial support: Access to Open Up, corporate discounts
• Connection & community: Virtual events, collaborative team activities, and opportunities for local meet-ups
• Tech equipment, referral bonuses, an individual development budget, dog-friendly HQ

Perks and benefits listed above are for full-time employees and may vary slightly by office location. These are just a sample — you'll learn more during the interview process.
