Senior Territory Account Executive (Digital Native), ANZ (Based in Brisbane/Sydney/Melbourne)

About Us

At Cloudflare, we are on a mission to help build a better Internet. Today the company runs one of the world’s largest networks that powers millions of websites and other Internet properties for customers ranging from individual bloggers to SMBs to Fortune 500 companies. Cloudflare protects and accelerates any Internet application online without adding hardware, installing software, or changing a line of code. Internet properties powered by Cloudflare all have web traffic routed through its intelligent global network, which gets smarter with every request. As a result, they see significant improvement in performance and a decrease in spam and other attacks. Cloudflare was named to Entrepreneur Magazine’s Top Company Cultures list and ranked among the World’s Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company.

At Cloudflare, we’re not looking for people who wait for a polished roadmap; we’re looking for the builders who see the cracks in the Internet that everyone else has simply learned to live with. We value candidates who have the instinct to spot a "normalized" problem and the AI-native curiosity to create a solution using the latest tools. Our culture is built on iteration, leveraging AI to ship faster today to make it better tomorrow, while ensuring that every improvement, no matter how small, is shared across the team to lift everyone up. If you’re the type of person who values curiosity over bureaucracy, and that AI is a partner in solving tough problems to keep the Internet moving forward, you’ll fit right in.

About the Department

The Cloudflare APAC sales organisation operates as one integrated revenue system. Account Executives, Customer Engineers, Partner Account Managers, Business Development Representatives, Customer Experience Managers, Professional Services and Revenue Operations work as a continuous engine — winning, deploying, adopting, expanding, and scaling platform commitments across the full customer lifecycle.

Within this organisation, the Australia Digital Native and Startup team partners with cloud-first, software, fintech, e-commerce, gaming, AI and other high-growth companies. These customers move quickly, build globally and expect technology partners who can match their pace while helping them strengthen security, performance, reliability and developer velocity.

The system is supported by an AI-embedded operating model. The work itself, however, remains human. The role of every seller at Cloudflare is to bring critical thinking, judgment, and trust to customer relationships and outcomes.

The ideal candidate combines strong new-business sales acumen with technical curiosity and the ability to operate at startup speed. As an Account Executive, you will create demand, build trusted relationships across technical and commercial stakeholders, and drive revenue velocity through disciplined territory planning, accurate forecasting and proactive pipeline management.

You are the kind of operator who uses AI as a force multiplier every day, cares more about customer outcomes than job boundaries, and demonstrates curiosity, judgment and high agency.
