Account Executive - MCP Manager Location Hybrid -?Midtown West, New York (minimum of 2-3 days a week from the office) (Office is less than a 10 min walk from Port Authority and under 5 min from Penn Station and Herald Square.)

SHAPE THE FUTURE OF AI GOVERNANCE WITH USERCENTRICS Usercentrics are a global leader in consent management, and now we?re bringing that same mission of trust and control into the AI era. MCP Manager (MCPM) is our newest product. A governance and management platform for Model Context Protocol (MCP), the emerging standard that connects AI agents to business systems like Salesforce, Confluence, Slack, and GitHub.

As AI adoption accelerates, enterprises face a new and urgent challenge: how do you give teams the power of AI agents while maintaining visibility, security, and control over what those agents can access and do? MCP Manager is the answer, serving as the trust and control layer for AI agent connections.

This is a category-creation opportunity. MCP is being compared to the invention of the USB connector for AI: a universal standard that changes everything. We?re looking for an experienced technically orientated Account Executive who wants to be on the ground floor of defining that category.
