Workspace Security Sales Specialist

Company Description

As the world’s leading vendor of Cyber Security, protecting organizations against the most sophisticated threats and attacks, we’ve assembled a global team of driven, creative, and innovative professionals. At Check Point, our employees are redefining the security landscape by solving our customers’ most critical challenges and delivering industry-leading technologies and services to an ever-growing global customer base.

Join the forefront of the cybersecurity battle at Check Point, where our Workspace Security organization is helping customers protect their users, applications, devices, email, and collaborative environments against today’s most advanced cyber threats.

As a Workspace Sales Specialist , you will be responsible for growing the Workspace Security business within your territory. You will own the development and execution of your territory strategy, create new business, expand existing customer relationships, develop partners, and lead complex opportunities from identification through close.

This role requires more than managing a pipeline. We are looking for someone who creates opportunities, operates with urgency, takes ownership of the business, and consistently finds a path forward.

We are seeking an experienced, driven, and highly competitive Workspace Sales Specialist to grow the Workspace Security business within the UKI territory.

The ideal candidate has a proven history of exceeding sales targets, acquiring new customers, expanding existing accounts, and successfully navigating complex enterprise sales cycles. You will work closely with customers, Account Managers, Sales Engineers, Inside Sales, partners, Marketing, Product, Customer Success, and other teams to develop and close opportunities.

You will be expected to understand your territory as a business: where the opportunities are, where the risks are, which customers and partners matter most, what competitive threats exist, and what actions are required to deliver the number.

• Solution Selling: Present the Workspace Security value proposition and clearly connect our capabilities to customer challenges, security requirements, business outcomes, and competitive differentiation.
• Contract & Tender Negotiations: Lead commercial discussions, contracts, tenders, procurement processes, and negotiations while balancing customer requirements with the needs of the business.

• Market Development: Support regional campaigns, customer events, partner programs, executive engagements, and marketing activities that increase awareness and generate new opportunities.
• Customer Ownership: Take responsibility for customer issues and requests throughout the sales process, working across organizational boundaries when necessary rather than simply handing problems to another team.
