Julie started working at Veeam in January, 2011 as a Marketing Assistant and supported the North America Central sales team. Now she is an Area Marketing Manager.
What was the cause of your career growth?
Short answer: We have great mentors and managers at Veeam. Take the initiative, don’t be afraid of failure and always challenge yourself.
Long answer: I have supported Channel, Distribution, Alliance and managed Field events in the North America Marketing department since I joined Veeam. So I encourage everyone to step out of your comfort zone to learn a new technology in a new area when there’s an opportunity. This will help you define the right career path for yourself.
How do you like your new role?
I really enjoy being an Area Marketing Manager. I know what I am passionate about and the list of skills and experiences that I have gained prior to this new role will help me continue my career growth at Veeam. I like everything about my job. We are Veeam Speed and Always-On. We have a great team here and everyone sells!
How would you describe your job to a person absolutely unfamiliar with it?
Since Veeam is a 100% channel-focused business model (no direct sales), enabling our channel partner/reseller is very important to our everyday business. This involves working closely with our focus partners to create and execute marketing plans for each one of them. Create marketing programs and campaigns that can increase brand awareness and generate new revenue and business for our partners and Veeam.
