In this dynamic role, you will bring a highly motivated and entrepreneurial spirit to drive sales in the cybersecurity sector. Your primary objective will be to enhance security resilience for our customers and communities. As a proactive self-starter with a competitive edge, you'll excel in building strong executive and internal relationships through strategic planning and accountability. You will actively seek opportunities to showcase Cisco's comprehensive security portfolio and cross-sell our solutions, maximizing security value for customers and partners.

  • Demonstrated ability to achieve goals, meet targets, or deliver positive business outcomes in a team environment.
  • Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams, partners, or stakeholders to drive customer engagement and results.
  • Strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to engage both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Preferred Qualifications :

  • Experience managing large deals and executing account and partner plans across geographic territories.
  • Capable of building and implementing an account plan that incorporates a total systems-based security approach.
  • Comprehensive knowledge of the Security Market.
  • Excellent interpersonal, communication, and presentation skills.
  • Experience in applying solution-selling methodologies to drive corporate revenue growth, with a history of closing both tactical and strategic opportunities. Experience with MEDDPICC is a plus.
  • #WeAreCisco ( This is the Standard and cannot be changed )

    #WeAreCisco where every individual brings their unique skills and perspectives together to pursue our purpose of powering an inclusive future for all.

    Our passion is connection-we celebrate our employees' diverse set of backgrounds and focus on unlocking potential. Cisconians often experience one company, many careers where learning and development are encouraged and supported at every stage. Our technology, tools, and culture pioneered hybrid work trends, allowing all to not only give their best, but be their best.

    We understand our outstanding opportunity to bring communities together and at the heart of that is our people . One-third of Cisconians collaborate in our 30 employee resource organizations, called Inclusive Communities, to connect, foster belonging, learn to be informed allies, and make a difference. Dedicated paid time off to volunteer- 80 hours each year-allows us to give back to causes we are passionate about, and nearly 86% do!

    Our purpose, driven by our people, is what makes us the worldwide leader in technology that powers the internet. Helping our customers reimagine their applications, secure their enterprise, transform their infrastructure, and meet their sustainability goals is what we do best. We ensure that every step we take is a step towards a more inclusive future for all. Take your next step and be you, with us!
