Regional Sales Director, Enterprise - Heartlands

About the Role

We are looking for a Regional Sales Director to join our Sales and Go-to-Market team. This role is based in the greater MN or WI area, reporting to the Regional Vice President. You will be part of a global group of professionals passionate about delighting our customers, nurturing trusted partnerships, and sharing expertise to drive a secure, cloud-enabled digital future. By demonstrating the power and agility of cloud transformation, you will help cement our position as the world leader in cloud security.

What you’ll do (Role Expectations)

• Recruit, hire and develop world-class sales talent, build development plans for each sales rep, and coach and motivate sales team to overachieve on targets
• Understand and solve customer pain points through Zscaler's unique value proposition
• Be the GM of your business and create a plan for success, and accurately forecast business monthly/quarterly/yearly
• Act as the executive sponsor for key partners to create joint plans, generate pipeline and drive opportunities to closure

Who You Are (Success Profile)

• You thrive in ambiguity. You're comfortable building the path as you walk it. You thrive in a dynamic environment, seeing ambiguity not as a hindrance, but as the raw material to build something meaningful.
• You act like an owner. Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the outcome. True ownership involves leveraging dynamic range: the ability to navigate seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
• You are a problem-solver. You love running towards the challenges because you are laser-focused on finding the solution, knowing that solving the hard problems delivers the biggest impact.
• You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
• You are a learner. You have a true growth mindset and are obsessed with your own development, actively seeking feedback to become a better partner and a stronger teammate. You love what you do and you do it with purpose.

What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)

• 6+ years of full-cycle sales leadership experience within the software or security industry
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience
• Progressive selling experience engaging with enterprise accounts and selling at the C-Level
• Residency in or willingness to commute within MN and WI

What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)

• Established relationships with current and prospective customers and a deep understanding of how technology facilitates high-level business goals
• Proficiency in strategic sales planning with a proven track record of closing net new logos
• Experience meeting or exceeding sales targets while leveraging channel partnerships
