If our mission excites you, you’re in the right place; we want you to bring your own energy to help us create a safer world. All we’re missing is you!
What you'll do
Lead generation
Be the detective of the cybersecurity world. Use social channels, industry events, and databases to uncover high-potential leads — and spotlight markets nobody else has spotted yet.
Outreach
Engage prospects through calls, emails, and professional social. Position yourself as a trusted advisor on their data security journey, not a vendor running a script.
Qualification
Listen for pain points before pitching anything. Ask insightful questions. Tailor what we offer to what they actually need — that's how trust gets earned in 12 minutes.
Appointment setting
You're the bridge between prospect and AE. Book the high-quality meetings and demos that let the sales team show what Forcepoint can actually do in the prospect's environment.
Skills development
Stay current on modern techniques, evolving buyer behavior, and emerging tech. Use AI tools — Copilot, Gong, Claude — to research, personalize, streamline, and refine. Every week, get sharper.
Collaboration
Work side-by-side with sales and marketing. Optimize your approach. Steal good plays from teammates. Bring some back.
Reporting
Maintain accurate records of every prospect engagement. Provide regular updates on lead generation activity and outcomes. Numbers tell the story of the week.
What we look for
Bachelor's degree in business, marketing, information technology, or a related field.
Minimum 1–2 years in a sales or lead generation role, preferably within cybersecurity.
Self-motivated and goal-oriented, with a proactive approach to lead generation.
Preferred · bonus signals
Cybersecurity or sales credentials — e.g., CompTIA Security+, Certified Sales Development Representative.
Previous time in a cybersecurity sales role.
Familiarity with sales methodologies and best practices already in muscle memory.
