Job Description
We seek someone enthusiastic and ambitious to join our Pre-Sales team to work with our Data Security portfolio. In this position, you'll work closely with the Sales team to respond to partner and customer needs for our solutions. The job is half about the soft skills and half about the technical skills, so you'll need to have both. Encryption and Cryptography underpin everything we do, so the more you understand that, the better. Any experience in Hardware Security Modules, Network Encryption, Cloud Security and Key Management Solutions is a significant benefit but not necessarily mandatory. We're more than happy to help you get familiar with our products and provide you with all the knowledge you need for your day to day work.
You'll first work closely with our prospects to gather information on their use case, application environment, and data flows to understand their needs fully. Once discovery is complete, you will be actively involved in the Proof of Concept phase of the sales engagement. We often need to provide assistance and advice on configuration or customisation to meet the prospects' needs with our very flexible solutions, so you'll need to be hands-on.
We interface with hundreds of 3rd-party applications and solutions, and you will undoubtedly come across many applications, integrations, features and APIs which aren't familiar. It is both the excitement and the challenge of this position - the role suits someone keen to learn and interested in technology; the ability and desire to 'learn something new' will help.
The position is based in South Africa Johannesburg. We expect you'd travel approximately 50% of the time, but it will vary; some weeks more, some weeks less. Travel will be mostly within sub-Saharan Africa.
If you think you are a perfect fit, or even if you believe you're close but will strive to fill the gaps, please get in touch. We'd be pleased to share more details of the company, the fantastic opportunity and the team. We are immensely proud of all three, and I'd love to find our next star.
