Full job description

Zscaler (NASDAQ: ZS) accelerates digital transformation so customers can be more agile, efficient, resilient, and secure. The Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange platform protects thousands of customers from cyberattacks and data loss by securely connecting users, devices, and applications in any location. Distributed across 200+ public data centers globally and thousands of private sites at the edge, the SASE-based Zero Trust Exchange is the world’s largest in-line cloud security platform.

We believe the future of work is Human + AI and are building an AI-native enterprise where human potential is amplified by machine intelligence to solve the world’s hardest security challenges. Driven by deep customer obsession, we are committed to the mission, outcome, and to each other. We bring these commitments to life through three core behaviors: ownership and collaboration, trust through outcomes and impact, and a challenge culture with ongoing feedback. Ready to make an impact at the company pioneering security transformation in the AI era? Join us at Zscaler.

We are looking for a Specialty Sales Account Executive to join our team. This is a hybrid role based in Netherlands, reporting to the Regional Director - Zscaler Sec Ops in the Sales and Go-to-Market department. You will be part of a global group of professionals dedicated to demonstrating the power and agility of cloud transformation while cementing our position as the world leader in cloud security. Your mission is to nurture trusted partnerships and share expertise to lead customers toward a secure, cloud-enabled digital future.

What you’ll do (Role Expectations)

  • Serve as the primary expert for customers, partners, and internal sales teams to drive revenue growth within the Zscaler Sec Ops product portfolio
  • Partner with domain expert solution engineers to gather customer requirements, create compelling value propositions, and close business alongside the primary account team
  • Own the Zscaler Sec Ops quota for your assigned territory by building and implementing account-based strategies to land and expand the portfolio
  • Support relationship expansion with top existing partners for the Zscaler Sec Ops business unit
  • Engage and sell effectively to both executive-level stakeholders (CXO) and technical practitioners

Who You Are (Success Profile)

  • You thrive in ambiguity. You're comfortable building the path as you walk it. You thrive in a dynamic environment, seeing ambiguity not as a hindrance, but as the raw material to build something meaningful.
  • You act like an owner. Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the outcome. True ownership involves leveraging dynamic range: the ability to navigate seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
  • You are a problem-solver. You love running towards the challenges because you are laser-focused on finding the solution, knowing that solving the hard problems delivers the biggest impact.
  • You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
  • You are a learner. You have a true growth mindset and are obsessed with your own development, actively seeking feedback to become a better partner and a stronger teammate. You love what you do and you do it with purpose.

What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)

  • Foundational understanding of AI/ML technologies and experience leveraging, securing, or positioning AI-driven solutions to optimize outcomes within your functional domain
  • 6+ years of full-cycle sales experience within the software or security industry
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent professional experience
  • Proven track record of progressive selling experience engaging with accounts at the C-suite level
  • Deep understanding of and practical experience with value-based selling methodologies

What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)

  • Experience leveraging AI-powered sales intelligence tools or articulating the security and compliance implications of enterprise AI adoption to accelerate Zscaler Sec Ops deals
  • Established network of relationships with current and prospective customers in the industry paired with direct experience selling Cloud Networking or Security solutions
  • High proficiency in strategic sales planning with a demonstrated ability to close net new logos
