Our Mission
At Palo Alto Networks everything starts and ends with our mission:
Being the cybersecurity partner of choice, protecting our digital way of life.

Our vision is a world where each day is safer and more secure than the one before.

We are a company built on the foundation of challenging and disrupting the way things are done, and we're looking for innovators who are as committed to shaping the future of cybersecurity as we are.

FLEXWORK is an employee-centric reimagining of how we work. We built FLEXWORK based on employee feedback - it is about flexibility, trust, and choice whenever possible. It's been a journey of disruption that has yielded the best of our values.

Your Career
The Named Account Manager partners with our customers to secure their entire digital experience.

You're motivated by the desire to solve critical challenges facing our customer's secure environment, so you're prepared to connect them with a solution for every stage of threat prevention.

This role is a significant driver of company revenue and growth. As an experienced and dynamic sales professional, you're responsible for leading and driving sales engagements.

Our solutions are best-in-breed and customers need a trusted cybersecurity partner who can create a truly zero trust based security architecture.

Our customers are looking to us to create critical transformations and our portfolio of solutions will help us do that.

We expect office-based employees to be in the office four days per week, with one day working from where they choose.

We believe being together facilitates casual conversations and those magic moments where we can work on issues and ideas informally.

These moments build capability and deepen trusted relationships and allow our people to feel safe in taking risks and being disruptive.

Like so many companies, we are working through the details and things could change.

but in general if a role is deemed office-based we want our teams to be together four days per week.
