organizations to safely embrace this new era. This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world

Okta’s UKI Strategic Account Executive Sales Team is hiring!
Our Strategic Account Executives (SAE) are the visionary leaders who orchestrate and drive sales engagements for our most critical
and prestigious UKI customers.
In an era where Artificial Intelligence is transforming how enterprises operate, identity has become the new security perimeter.

deep relationship alignment, and flawless account governance. Expect to lead from the front: presenting Okta’s transformational
proposals, negotiating high-stakes terms, and bringing down complex, multi-layered, seven-figure deals that deliver massive
win-win scenarios for both the customer and Okta.
Beyond managing existing relationships, you will hunt for new business leads that fit our ideal client profile, uncovering
uncharted territory in the market. You will align closely with our Global partners to build sustainable strategic engagements, and
leverage cutting-edge Account-Based Marketing to ensure Okta's investment continuously aligns with customer growth.

Okta, helping the world's most prominent enterprises transition securely into a smarter, AI-driven future.
