General Manager Small Business
We're a product-first team on a mission to help grow the cybersecurity culture 🔐
We want to instill cybersecurity good practices to employees in a way that's actually effective, and entertaining enough so that employees don't feel like they're working. Think Duolingo but for cybersecurity.
We created a platform to easily rollout a cybersecurity awareness program: the platform sends chat-based 4-minutes long courses to teams. Following the courses, the other side of the platform simulates phishing attacks, to prepare employees to face hackers, but in a safe environment.
Created in 2020, Riot has raised $45m with leading investors (Y Combinator, Left Lane, Base10, Funders Club and Frst Capital) and is now protecting more than 2,000,000 employees in over 2,000 companies (including Sisal, Edison, Coop and LastMinute) all over the world.
Cybersecurity is everywhere. It's impacting everyone, everyday, and it's becoming the number one risk to any organization, whether it's a small business or a big firm. Yet, the cybersecurity culture in most companies is a disaster. Hackers are leveraging this by targeting the weakest link: the employees. We're on a mission to fix that.

About the job
Most cybersecurity companies ignore small businesses. Too small, too fragmented, too hard to reach at scale. We think that's the wrong bet and a massive opportunity.
The SMB market (companies under 200 employees) is one of Riot's biggest growth levers. Cyber attacks are increasingly targeting smaller companies, and incoming regulations will soon force thousands of them to act. What doesn't exist yet is a scalable way to reach them. That's exactly what this role is about.
What you build will not only drive growth in France but will also serve as a blueprint for international expansion and other segments such as Mid-Market and Enterprise.
What you will do 🤝
As our first Head of Small Business, you will build Riot's SMB acquisition engine from the ground up: defining strategy, picking channels, running experiments, and shipping systems that work.
What you build in France will become the blueprint for how Riot grows internationally and across segments. Reporting directly to our CEO and cofounder, this is a 0 > 1 role with company-level impact.
