Relationship Manager

About Drawbridge Drawbridge is the leading cybersecurity platform built specifically for alternative investment firms. We provide hedge funds, private equity firms, and family offices enterprise-grade security without the enterprise complexity — protecting capital, satisfying LP due diligence, and keeping regulatory examiners at bay. Our clients don't have a CISO. They have Drawbridge. We're growing, and the relationships we build with clients are at the center of how we retain and grow revenue. We're looking for a Relationship Manager who understands that deeply. The Role At Drawbridge, the relationship isas important asthe product. Our clients — COOs, CFOs, CCOs, and Managing Partners at some of the most sophisticated investment firms in the world — don't have time for vendor check-ins. They have time fortrustedadvisors who show up with a point of view, help them make sense of a complex regulatory and threat environment, and make them look smart in front of their stakeholders. That's the job. As a Relationship Manager, you'll own a book of alternative investment firm clients across hedge funds, private equity firms, and family offices. You'll engage proactively, lead with outcomes, and become the trusted advisor those clients turn to when cybersecurity intersects with capital raising, regulatory scrutiny, or operational risk. Your success is measured by Net Revenue Retention. The way you drive it is by ensuring every client in your book can clearly articulate the value they're getting from Drawbridge — and confidently justify that investment to their partners, boards, and LPs. What You'll Do Build and own executive relationships Develop and maintain trusted relationships across multiple stakeholders at each client — operational contacts who use the program day-to-day and executive sponsors who make renewal decisions Earn the right to be in the room when it matters: regulatory exams, LP due diligence cycles, board-level risk conversations Show up in person when the moment calls for it — client visits are a core part of this role, not an exception Lead with outcomes, not activity Frame every client interaction around business impact: capital protected, regulatory exposure addressed, operational continuity improved Help clients translate security program progress into language their LPs, boards, and regulators can understand Ensure clients can articulate the value and outcomes they're receiving from Drawbridge — and have the narrative to justify that investment internally Maintain a clear, current view of what has been delivered for every account — and what's coming next Proactively manage the health of your book Surface risk early. Clients who feel heard and see value don't churn — clients who go quiet do.

You don't wait for a client to raise a concern — you surface it first You're genuinely curious about your clients' businesses: how they raise capital, how they manage regulatory exposure, what keeps their COO up at night You build trust by showing up consistently and delivering on what you say you will Nice to Have Familiarity with SEC examination preparedness, Reg S-P, or LP due diligence processes Experience working alongside technical delivery teams (solutions engineers, vCISOs, or similar) Background in alternative investment operations — fund administration, compliance, technology Prior experience at a cybersecurity, GRC, or compliance SaaS company Hands‑on experience using AI tools (Copilot, Claude, or similar) to manage client communications, synthesize account context, or accelerate workflow at scale What Success Looks Like 90 days:You know your book. You've connected with every client, you have a clear view of each account's health, and you've identified where attention is most needed. 6 months:Clients are hearing from you proactively. At-risk accounts have a plan. You're advancing expansion conversations without being prompted. 12 months:Clients think of you as their advisor — not their vendor's rep. Your NRR reflects that. You're contributing to how the RM team operates, not just executing within it.
