At Vanta, our mission is to help businesses earn and prove trust. We believe that security should be monitored and verified continuously, and we empower companies to practice better security and prove it with ease. Vanta has a kind and talented team, and while some have prior security experience, many have been successful at Vanta without it.

As the first Manager, Deal Desk for EMEA, you’ll be a foundational member of our growing global Deal Desk organization—owning the deal review and execution process for the region.

We started in 2018, in the wake of several high‑profile data breaches. Online security was only becoming more important, but we knew firsthand how hard it could be for fast‑growing companies to invest the time and manpower it takes to build a solid security foundation. Vanta was inspired by a vision to restore trust in internet businesses by enabling companies to improve and prove their security. From our early days automating security monitoring for compliance standards like SOC 2, HIPAA and ISO 27001 to creating the world’s leading Trust Management Platform, our vision remains unchanged.

Now more than ever, making security continuous—not just a point‑in‑time check— is essential. Thousands of companies rely on Vanta to build, maintain and demonstrate their trust— all in a way that's real‑time and transparent.

At Vanta, we are committed to hiring diverse talent of different backgrounds and as such, it is important to us to provide an inclusive work environment for all. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, gender identity, age, religion, sexual orientation, veteran or disability status, or any other protected class.
