Corporate Overview

Proofpoint is a leading cybersecurity company protecting organizations’ most significant assets and biggest risks: vulnerabilities in people. With an integrated suite of cloud-based solutions, Proofpoint helps companies around the world stop targeted threats, safeguard their data, and make their users more resilient against cyber-attacks. Leading organizations of all sizes, including over half of the Fortune 1000, rely on Proofpoint for people-centric security and compliance solutions, mitigating their most critical risks across email, the cloud, social media, and the web.

We are singularly devoted to helping our customers protect their greatest assets and most significant security risk: their people. That’s why we’re a leader in next-generation cybersecurity. Protection Starts with People.

The Role

The EMEA Professional Services Consultant will oversee implementations and consultative engagements for the Proofpoint Information & People Protection Platforms (Mail Protection, Insider Threat Management (ITM) On-Premise & SaaS, Email DLP, Endpoint DLP, Cloud Application Security Broker (CASB)). This individual will develop new services, implement best practices, and assist in customer escalations as needed. The ideal candidate has the demonstrated ability to ensure successful service delivery and customer success. Proofpoint’s Consultants are service delivery experts who work remotely to manage and align client business priorities with data protection strategies. As subject matter experts on a broad spectrum of information security models, best practices, and operational strategies, our Consultants reduce clients’ security risks by mapping technology to organizational processes and resources.

This is a highly technical role, and deep knowledge of the operating systems (Windows & Linux) and network configuration is required, as well as a strong background in email and data protection. Resolving customer issues routinely includes working in complex product and infrastructure configurations, problem troubleshooting and isolation, performance tuning and optimization, training the customers on product features, escalating product defects and issues, and driving them toward resolution while managing the customer. The position requires working remotely with non-technical managers and executives to develop technical and business requirements for their company’s custom data security program.

This role is open to Europe and the Middle East.
