Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human
Identity is the key to unlocking the potential of AI. Okta secures AI by building the trusted, neutral infrastructure that enables organizations to safely embrace this new era. This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence.
This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk.
The Okta Vision
Okta’s vision is to enable anyone to safely use any technology by providing a secure, highly available, enterprise-grade identity platform. Our technology secures billions of workforce logins each year.
At Okta, we empower our Account Executives from day one with a world-class onboarding experience, ongoing development, and a culture of support and collaboration.
The Opportunity: Strategic Account Executive
We are looking for a high-performing, self-motivated Account Executive with a passion for cybersecurity and helping organisations protect against evolving identity threats.
As AI adoption accelerates, identity is becoming even more critical. Organisations now need to secure not only employees and customers, but also non-human identities such as service accounts, automation tools, API keys, and AI agents. Okta helps customers bring these identities into a unified Identity Security Fabric, enabling greater visibility, governance, and secure access across the full identity lifecycle.
At Okta, you’ll join a company helping define the future of identity security in an AI-driven world, supported by strong onboarding, ongoing development, and a culture of collaboration from day one.
As an Strategic Account Executive at Okta, you will work closely with C-suite decision-makers to demonstrate how our platform drives secure, seamless access across their workforce. Your focus will be on both new business acquisition and expansion within our existing customer base.
Territory: A mix of new logos and existing customers across NSW, along with the New Zealand market.
