SDR Role at Huntress - Launch a Cybersecurity Sales Career in Columbus
Career & Market Insight
This SDR role at Huntress offers a strong launchpad into cybersecurity sales, one of the fastest-growing sectors globally. The company's focus on MSPs (Managed Service Providers) means you'll develop a niche B2B skill set that commands a premium — MSP-channel sales experience is highly valued at vendors across the security and IT landscape.
Career development signals:
- Access to BetterUp coaching signals genuine investment in professional growth beyond standard sales training
- Autonomy to "operate beyond your role" and improve processes suggests a startup-style environment where SDRs can influence strategy — not just execute scripts
- The "small but elite team" framing indicates you'll be a meaningful contributor, not lost in a large sales org
- Stock options for all full-time employees is a meaningful equity upside given Huntress's strong growth trajectory (Series C, 4M+ protected endpoints)
Compensation context: No salary is listed, which is a minor yellow flag. Market rates for SDRs in Australia typically range from $60,000–$80,000 AUD base, with on-target earnings (OTE) of $90,000–$110,000 AUD including commissions. Candidates should probe OTE structure in interviews.
Red flags to note: This is an evergreen/pipeline requisition — there is no confirmed immediate opening. Candidates should clarify expected timelines before investing heavily in the process. The high call volume (50+/day) is demanding but standard for SDR roles and builds resilience and discipline valued in future AE or sales management tracks.
Headquarters: Remote Australia
Reports to: Manager, Sales Development
Location: Remote Australia
