Job SummaryJoin Comcast Business's Advanced Security team as a Cybersecurity Sales Specialist, where you'll own the go-to-market strategy and sales execution for our advanced managed security portfolio - including MDR, EDR, and other next-generation cybersecurity services. This is a quota-carrying, customer-facing sales role, responsible for driving revenue growth by positioning Comcast Business as the trusted security partner of choice for mid-market and enterprise organizations.
This is an overlay role where you'll collaborate closely with account executives, solution engineers, and partner channels to identify new opportunities, shape customer strategy, and close business. This position requires a strong understanding of cybersecurity concepts and buyer pain points - but the primary focus is consultative selling and revenue attainment, not hands-on engineering or security operations
Job DescriptionKey Responsibilities- Own the full sales cycle in partnership with account executives, from prospecting and qualification through close.
- Lead customer conversations focused on business outcomes and risk reduction, translating complex security capabilities into clear value propositions.
- Assisting with compelling product demos and technical overviews in a sales context, supported by our technical engineering teams.
- Build and maintain strong relationships with CISOs, IT Directors, and security decision-makers to influence buying criteria and close deals.
- Partner with product, marketing, and engineering teams to refine messaging, competitive positioning, and sales enablement.
- Conduct enablement sessions with field sales reps and partners to drive pipeline generation for advanced managed security solutions.
Qualifications- 5+ years of direct solution-selling experience in cybersecurity, managed security services, or enterprise security SaaS.
- Proven track record of achieving or exceeding quota in a B2B sales environment.
- Strong understanding of cybersecurity frameworks and technologies (MDR, EDR, SIEM, CASB, ZTNA, UTM, threat hunting, vulnerability management).
- Familiarity with public cloud platforms (O365, AWS, Azure, GCP) and their security ecosystems.
- Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to engage both technical and executive stakeholders.
- Strategic thinker with a challenger mindset and the ability to influence buying decisions.
- Experience selling in an overlay or specialist model preferred.
Who This Role Is ForThis position is ideal for sales professionals who are passionate about cybersecurity and thrive on driving measurable results while working in an overlay role, supporting other sellers and account managers that rely on your expertise to win the business.
If your background is primarily in engineering, analysis, or operations, this role may not be the right fit - it requires proven sales experience, quota ownership, and comfort leading business discussions at the executive level.
Regular, consistent and punctual attendance. Must be able to work nights and weekends, variable schedule(s) and overtime as necessary.
Other duties and responsibilities as assigned.
