Full-time Head of Sales, Harmonic Security, Inc
FULL-TIME SALES JOB · TECHNOLOGY, INFORMATION AND INTERNET SECTOR · UNITED KINGDOM
Harmonic Security is hiring a full-time Regional Sales Director for the UK to own the complete sales cycle for their AI Governance platform, targeting CISOs/CIOs with deal sizes of £100k+. The role is structured as permanent quota-carrying employment with competitive salary (£90–110k), equity, and typical SaaS benefits; it is not fractional, interim, or part-time.
Full-time Head of Sales — the balanced verdict
Why this role stands out
- Category-defining AI security market with serious investor backing (N47, Ten Eleven Ventures, In-Q-Tel).
- Early-stage company building sales playbook from scratch; rare opportunity to shape go-to-market strategy.
- Clear role scope — full sales cycle ownership, territory building, and cross-functional collaboration.
- Transparent culture, high trust, real equity (not token), and thoughtful leadership emphasis.
Worth checking before you apply
- Title says 'Regional Sales Director' but job description reads as an individual contributor sales rep role (no mention of team management or leadership responsibility); confirm reporting line and whether you'd manage a team.
- Startup environment; expect high autonomy but also unproven process and potential scope creep.
- AI-first working culture expectation is genuine and non-negotiable; role assumes comfort with daily AI tool adoption.

AI doesn't run in one place anymore. It runs in the browser tab, the desktop app, the agent your engineers kicked off, and the copilot embedded in the tools you already pay for. Harmonic Security governs all of it.
Our AI Governance and Control (AIGC) platform sits on the device, inside the interaction, at the moment of action, reading what AI is actually doing (not just the traffic around it) and acting in under 200ms. Security teams get full visibility and control across every AI surface, including the agentic and MCP layer that traditional tools can't see. Their people get to innovate without guardrails slowing them down.
We're gaining serious traction at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity, and backed by investors who know the space: N47, Ten Eleven Ventures, and In-Q-Tel. As AI adoption inside the enterprise accelerates, the ability to safely observe, control, and enforce policy in real time isn't a nice-to-have. It's mission-critical infrastructure. That's what we build.
How We Work: AI-First by Design
Harmonic exists to help enterprises adopt AI safely and at scale. We hold ourselves to that same standard. Everyone here actively uses AI tools to do their best work, from research and writing to building automated workflows. We expect every new hire to bring genuine curiosity for AI and a commitment to working smarter and faster with it.
For some, this means staying open to new tools. For others, it means architecting new systems with AI at the core. We're transparent about expectations for every role, and we give you the tools and support to thrive.

- Why Join Us
This isn't just a job, it's a chance to help define a category, and to build this chapter of the story from its first page. We're building at the intersection of AI and security, where the rules haven't been written yet, and the people who join now will write them.
