Product Marketing Manager | M365 Security Product Marketing

Every company is beginning to think and operate like a digital company, changing the way that people work. Against a backdrop of dramatically increasing cyberthreats that can destroy reputations and confidence, these changes offer both new opportunities and new challenges.

As organizations look to have people work in new ways that take advantage of increasingly mobile and collaborative technologies, the potential for a security breach has increased. This is where Microsoft 365 has led the industry in providing an environment that is both productive for users while also delivering security solutions to keep threats at bay.

This role offers an opportunity to help shape the security offerings in Microsoft 365. From the underlying platform security services through to end user experiences, we continue to expand our capabilities for security operations professionals and further integrate across all of Microsoft.

As the product marketer who takes this role, you want to join a flexible team with a wide variety of histories and backgrounds. We actively promote inclusivity and value diverse backgrounds, inputs and opinions, and you’re someone who thinks work can be fun. You think creatively, bring a different perspective to share and quite possibly you have some odd hobbies just like we do. You are curious, questioning, excited to engage with and love to learn from others. On a daily basis you are passionate about influencing product strategy and delivering powerful messaging to the market. You are well and truly up for the big challenges, in fact you get bored when things are easy. You enjoy the journey to clarity, love the listening as much as the teaching and you know when to push harder for greater success.

If this balance of skills, qualities and passions sounds like you then we should talk.
