About WatchGuard Technologies

WatchGuard does not sell to the business that runs its products: firewalls, endpoint protection, identity and secure Wi-Fi reach midsize companies through managed service providers, resellers and distributors, so its salespeople sell to and through partners. Channel account managers own a territory and its active partners and carry that territory's quota for new business and expansion, quoting, training partner reps, generating leads and working events with them; in Europe they report to a country manager, and the Madrid seat also owns Telefónica as a strategic partner. From its Cork office, inside partner account managers work a book of existing partners remotely to sell more of the portfolio and its subscription and MSP offerings, while renewals account managers take a quarterly list of every expiring licence in their book, must renew or upgrade each one and grow its recurring revenue, a quota seat the postings open to people stepping up from sales development or arriving from another industry. Pre-sales reports to a VP of sales engineering: solution specialists in Miami (for North America) and Cork (for Europe, in English or German) carry a target for cross-selling zero trust, identity and endpoint products into the partner base, and sales engineers in Italy and Malaysia demo, run proofs of concept and answer RFPs for MSSPs, VARs and distributors. In the US it also hires partner managers in Miami, posted across associate, mid and senior levels, to build joint business plans with MSPs, and a senior channel account manager in Seattle.

That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.
