Genf, Genf, Schweiz Palo Alto Networks Vollzeit

Our Mission

At Palo Alto Networks everything starts and ends with our mission:

Being the cybersecurity partner of choice, protecting our digital way of life.

Our vision is a world where each day is safer and more secure than the one before. We are a company built on the foundation of challenging and disrupting the way things are done, and we're looking for innovators who are as committed to shaping the future of cybersecurity as we are.

Our Approach to Work

We lead with flexibility and choice in all of our people programs. We have disrupted the traditional view that all employees have the same needs and wants. We offer personalization and offer our employees the opportunity to choose what works best for them as often as possible - from your wellbeing support to your growth and development, and beyond

Your Career

With the growth of our Alps sales team, we are adding a new District Sales Manager to our leadership organization.

As a member of our sales leadership team, you will build and drive account sales teams to exceed company objectives while growing your region according to plan. You'll be responsible for building a high-performance sales culture that delivers results in bookings, sales development, and forecast accuracy while simultaneously mentoring and developing your team members to accomplish individual and organizational goals. It will be required that you track sales activity, provide sales projects, and create and analyze metrics.

Our solutions are best-in-breed and customers need a trusted cybersecurity partner who can create a truly zero-trust-based security architecture. Our customers are looking to us to create critical transformations and our portfolio of solutions will help us do that.

A challenge inspires you, rather than intimidates you, and you aren't afraid of setting accelerated goals to drive you to succeed. More than that, you are motivated by empowering our clients to meet their cybersecurity needs and you are driven with an encompassing passion for solutions selling.

Your Impact

We are looking for a proven first-line sales leader with great energy, leadership, and initiative to drive team performance and revenue growth for our sales team. This role will entail:

  • Developing a winning team of quota-carrying sales professionals - including recruiting, hiring and training while upholding our core values
  • Focus on driving business in the Alps market - Switzerland (in the hubs of Zurich and Geneva), Austria, and Lichtenstein
  • Actively engaging in territory planning and development, relationship development, and opportunities to drive revenue by supporting and assisting your team in closing opportunities
  • Own and drive revenue outcomes within the assigned region, territories, and/or district, exceeding personal and team sales quotas and goals
  • Coach, develop, and mentor representatives to success in all aspects of the sales cycle - lead generation, qualification, forecasting, and closing opportunities, while using our channel/partner network
  • Deep dive into weekly territory pipeline and forecasting activities to coach direct reports on strategies to drive closure
  • Build sales analysis for insight into weekly, monthly and quarterly execution and strategies
  • Deeply understanding your customers' needs by doing the research to develop insight into their priorities, and staying knowledgeable on product roadmap, industry changes, and competitive landscape

Your Experience

  • Proven leader with the ability to create high performing teams in a rapidly growing sales environment - hired, developed and retained successful sales talent
  • Track record of successful sales pipeline management and results - consistently delivering revenue numbers and goals while maintaining a focus on team development and growth
  • Experience and knowledge of SaaS-based architectures, ideally in a networking and/or security industry (SASE, cloud or endpoint technology is a plus)
  • Experience with channel and partner sales models
  • Deep understanding of enterprise sales methodology
  • Built strong cross-functional relationships across clients, partners, and internal teams
  • Excellent at influencing others, both externally and internally - ability to communicate effectively and build consensus across various functional groups to achieve goals
  • Proficiency in German and English language skills; French language proficiency is a plus

The Team

Our sales team members work hand-in-hand with large organizations around the world to keep their digital environments protected. We educate, inspire, and empower our potential clients in their journey to security.

As part of our sales team, you are empowered with unmatched systems and tools, constantly updated research and sales libraries, and a team built on joint success. You won't find someone at Palo Alto Networks that isn't committed to your success – with everyone pitching in to assist when it comes to solutions selling, learning, and development. As a member of our sales team, you are motivated by a solutions-focused sales environment and find fulfillment in working with clients to resolve incredibly complex cyberthreats.

Our Commitment

We're trailblazers that dream big, take risks, and challenge cybersecurity's status quo. It's simple: we can't accomplish our mission without diverse teams innovating, together.

We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations for all qualified individuals with a disability. If you require assistance or accommodation due to a disability or special need, please contact us at .
