ABOUT JOE ROCHE

My first part time job was working at a local mobile phone shop, and since then I’ve always known that I wanted to work in an environment that allowed me to speak to customers every single day (and make sales!). I\'ve since been employed and trained by world-renowned sales organisations, and had the pleasure of working with huge customers. This has helped me to understand the inner workings of global businesses, the complex issues they are trying to solve, and how change is driven. When I joined Zscaler, I was seeking mentors and leaders that could help me sharpen my skills and progress my career, quickly. Having committed to the lessons I was offered, I benefited from exactly that, and now I’m motivated to pass on those lessons to see how they can change the career and subsequently the lives of others around me. Now, in a leadership role at Figma, my job is to find and coach special individuals, that are hungry, smart, and aspire to be excellent at selling software that helps businesses to get products to market, faster. As an insight into how we work, my team and I stand by some core principles that we have found help us win when implemented daily- Embrace a limitless mindset. Think big and be creative with our approach- Be thoroughly prepared for everything that we do - Execute with excellence, every time- Seek out ways to continuously improve- Celebrate big and celebrate together However - Something that has become abundantly clear to me, is that achieving excellence is never easy, and it requires focus, hard work, and sacrifice. But if you’re serious about it, the journey is one of the most rewarding things you can do. If you like the sound of the journey my team and I are on, drop me a message. I’d love to hear about your aspirations and in return, I’ll share how I think we can help you achieve them.
