Vanta

At Vanta, our mission is to secure the internet and protect consumer data. We believe that security should be monitored and verified continuously, and we empower companies to practice better security and prove it with ease. Vanta has a kind and talented team, and while some have prior security experience, many have been successful at Vanta without it. As Vanta’s first Product Support Specialist in Australia, you will help our Vanta customers by addressing their product best practices, compliance, and technical support requests. You will work closely with other members of the Vanta Support, Engineering, and GRC teams to ensure we deliver a superior customer experience while adhering to our service SLAs. We’re looking for a problem-solving and empathetic Product Support Specialist located in the Sydney, Australia area. Tired of reading about the latest security breach where your credit card, or identifying information may have been stolen? At Vanta, we’re growing quickly and dedicated to making the internet more secure!  We help companies understand their complex security needs, and provide on-going monitoring to make sure no mistakes are made. Secure data is not a destination, but an ongoing journey that we’re here to support.Vanta’s Product Support Specialist team today is small but mighty. We’re a little nit-picky about the technical details, and are ardent receipt-keepers and “screen-shotters”. If we have the opportunity to show our customers rather than just tell them, we’ll take it.  Here, you get to learn-by-doing, have your input valued, and work collaboratively with your team members on a daily basis to deliver above-industry standards in response quality and turnaround. You’ll provide product best practices and compliance support to customers, partners, and developers for Vanta’s products and services, helping to successfully resolve customer requests.
