Meet the Team
At Cisco, our Southern Region team leads the business across Victoria, ACT and Tasmania, spanning across Enterprise, Public Sector, Commercial, and Mid‐Market segments. This is where strategy comes together at a state level, bringing sales, partners, and customer teams into one aligned approach. The team works across functions to respond to changing customer needs and market conditions. It's a visible, high‐impact group with clear accountability for performance in one of Cisco's most important markets. Reporting to the Theatre Vice President and General Manager, you'll join a leadership team that values different perspectives, encourages collaboration, and focuses on delivering outcomes.

This is a critical leadership role with accountability for Cisco's business in Victoria. You'll set direction and drive execution, aligning priorities into a clear, focused state plan. You'll lead a multi‐channel approach across a complex environment, strengthening pipeline, improving execution, and delivering consistent results. You'll work closely with sales, partners, and go‐to‐market teams to ensure alignment and coordinated outcomes across the region. As a senior leader for the state, you'll represent Cisco externally and internally, engaging with customers, partners, and stakeholders at an executive level.
