At Mimecast, we're redefining cybersecurity and leading the charge in human risk management. We protect businesses from evolving threats, and you'll be at the forefront. Every customer you bring on board builds something bigger - for them, for us, for our communities, and for your career. Simply put - when we grow, you grow. We set you up to win. Top-tier enablement, smart coaching, and real insights mean you'll smash quotas, not just hit them.

Compelling commission, clear progression, and chances to lead, specialize, or pivot - you decide what's next. Here, success isn't just about the deals you close. It's about your progress, your influence, your impact. Ready to push boundaries and accelerate your career? Let's make it happen.

What You'll Do:

  • Develop Opportunities: Proactively identify new business within the mid-market segment.

  • Acquire Clients: Present tailored solutions to secure new accounts and build long-term relationships.

  • Manage Pipeline: Maintain a strong pipeline of qualified leads focused on growth.

  • Achieve Quotas: Meet and exceed revenue targets consistently.

  • Collaborate with Channels: Work with channel partners to drive campaigns and customer acquisition.

  • Provide Market Insights: Stay informed on trends and dynamics to uncover new opportunities.

  • Support Sales Enablement: Collaborate with internal teams to enhance sales tools and strategies.

What You'll Bring:

  • Proven success in cybersecurity, SaaS or IT sales, especially in mid-market business development.

  • Strong consultative selling skills and understanding of customer needs.

  • Familiarity with mid-market buying processes and IT procurement.

  • Experience with Salesforce, Demandbase, Gong, and ZoomInfo.

  • Ability to travel up to 25% for customer meetings and events (valid US driver’s license required).

The US OTE range for this position is $144,000-$216,000 + benefits. This reflects the minimum and maximum target for new hire on-target earnings for this position. This position may also be eligible for other related benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. These factors and individual capabilities will also determine the individual pay offered.
