What the job involves
- This is our first Partner Enablement role at Vanta! We’re looking for an experienced Enabler to help shape and build out our strategy while getting hands-on with our current and future partners. You will play a crucial role in supporting the onboarding and ongoing enablement of our channel and partner community
- You will work closely with our Channel Sales, Partner Marketing, and Product teams to ensure our partners have the knowledge, tools, and resources they need to achieve partnership goals. This role is essential to driving Vanta’s growth through strategic partnerships and ensuring our partners are well-equipped to deliver value to customers

Our take
The security auditing process is usually very time-consuming, taking hours to complete, and it is often difficult for start-ups to invest time into such a process. Yet, the benefits of security accreditation are enormous, mainly as many such businesses are working globally and need ways to demonstrate security compliance to one another. Vanta works specifically with start-ups to help them complete and pass security audits such as SOC 2 and ISO 27001.
The company is a compliance portal and security monitoring platform that businesses use to assess their risk levels. Vanta carries out a pre-audit of a company's digital security and highlights areas that need to be worked on before a full analysis of all threats is carried out. Other businesses such as Datadog or PagerDuty offer similar security monitoring services, but Vanta monitors its customers throughout the year, allowing any issues to be identified and addressed early on.
Vanta has found a valuable cybersecurity niche within the giant SaaS market. Companies such as Lattice, Clubhouse, and Calm are all customers, demonstrating a growing trend for companies to manage their cybersecurity proactively, which Vanta should be able to take advantage of to further grow and develop into the future.
