  • Own and drive cross-functional workstreams, primarily with Sales, Marketing, and Support
  • Be part of setting the vision for, and contribute to, Mimecast’s evolving Channel Partner Strategy

What You'll Bring:

  • Strong experience in Customer Success, with proven experience working within a scaled or digital motion, and in a people management role

  • Strong customer facing skills – adept at acting as an executive escalation point and talking with customers at all levels of an organization
  • Innovative, agile, creative and self-driven; able to understand a large customer pool and respond to customer needs in a programmatic way
