We never leave anyone behind. We deliver quickly - and outstandingly. We're big on honesty because it makes us better. We're empowered by our mission.

And if cybercriminals have a good day, we work twice as hard to make the rest of their days a nightmare.

That's The Mimecast Way.

And the Mimecast way is also a hybrid-working way.

Become a Mimecaster and put corporate data under your protection. Fill our teams with respect. And bring cybercrime-obstructing energy to your work. Be passionate. Be powerful. Be alive with purpose.

DEI Statement

Cybersecurity is a community effort.

That's why we're committed to building an inclusive, diverse community that celebrates and welcomes everyone - unless they're a cybercriminal, of course.


We're proud to be an Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action Employer, and we'd encourage you to join us whatever your background.

We particularly welcome applicants from traditionally underrepresented groups.
