And we are just as passionate about finding the right people to help us in that mission. When you join Proofpoint, you are helping to:

• Build and enhance our proven security platform

• Blend innovation and speed in a constantly evolving cloud environment

The Role

Proofpoint is looking for a self-starting, responsible, action-oriented, and self-motivated individual to join our growing field services team.

• Be a relentless advocate for customers to help ensure that Proofpoint deployments are successful. Consistently gather feedback to identify trends and acting as the voice of the customer, provide that structured feedback to product management.

• Identify At Risk customers that are not achieving their desired outcome and as needed, lead cross-functional efforts to get those customers back on track.

• Engage with appropriate internal team members from cross functional groups such as Sales, Engineering, Support, and Professional Services.

• Develop and oversee individual strategies to help meet Proofpoint’s customers’ requirements for success. Guide the customer in best practices to incorporate those strategies into their business/technical plans.
