Cloudflare is looking for a leader to manage our Cloudflare One Go-to-Market (GTM) Specialist team across the United States, Canada, and Latin America.
Key Responsibilities
Cloudflare One unifies Zero Trust security and networking to protect users, devices, applications, and networks. As customers evolve toward agentic enterprises, it extends that security fabric to govern workforce AI usage, protect sensitive data, and secure access and connections involving AI agents.
You will lead GTM Specialists who partner with account executives, sales leaders, and Solutions Engineering to drive discovery, sales strategy, and execution across customer segments—while account teams retain ownership of the broader customer relationship.
Build and develop the team: Recruit and coach GTM Specialists, establish clear performance expectations, and strengthen discovery, business-value conversations, and commercial execution.
Own AMER growth: Deliver against the Cloudflare One quota, build qualified pipeline, and drive new customer acquisition and expansion. Align coverage and resources with regional priorities.
Shape opportunity strategy: Partner with account teams on customer discovery, executive alignment, competitive positioning, business cases, and close plans. Lead strategic customer engagements.
Partner with Solutions Engineering: Establish shared priorities and align demonstrations and proofs of concept with customer success criteria and a clear purchase decision.
Advance modernization and secure AI adoption: Develop repeatable plays for VPN replacement, secure Internet and SaaS access, data protection, email security, and network modernization. Help customers address emerging access, data protection, and governance requirements for AI and agentic workflows.
Scale cross-functional execution: Align with Sales, Customer Success, channel partners, Marketing, and Product. Strengthen field readiness, share customer feedback, and support effective post-sales handoffs.
Run a disciplined business: Establish pipeline inspection, forecasting, and deal-review practices that create shared visibility and accountability.
Improve effectiveness through AI: Adopt or build tools for research, preparation, coaching, and opportunity inspection. Measure their impact while ensuring responsible use, data protection, and appropriate human review.
