Heather Bentley will join the company later this month as the new Senior Vice President of Customer Success. Previously, Heather was the Head of Customer Success in Europe for Automation Anywhere. For more than a decade, Heather held leadership positions at Symantec and recently was their Vice President of Premium Support and Customer Success. As the SVP of Customer Success at Mimecast, Heather will be responsible for leading the global customer success and services strategy to ensure alignment with corporate goals and initiatives. This will require her to drive cross functional initiatives and develop a roadmap to strategically engage, retain, and scale positive customer experiences. With the huge cyber security skills gap, there is an opportunity for Mimecast Legendary Customer Success to serve as a trusted security advisor to our valued customers. Heather’s experience building global services programs will help Mimecast expand its efforts in this area to deliver amazing customer engagements.
“I love Mimecast’s customer-first approach to doing business. There’s really a sense of wanting for each customer to have the best experience possible that resonated with me when talking to both executives and team members across the globe. I’m excited to take my passion for building customer success to Mimecast and help continue driving the Legendary Customer Success they’re known for,” said Heather Bentley.
Susan joins the company in a newly-created role as Vice President of Brand Strategy. She is responsible for growing brand recognition for Mimecast as a cyber resilience provider while also ensuring the brand provides a competitive advantage in key markets to help drive long-term value for the business.

During her nearly 10-year tenure with Optiv, among other high profile initiatives, Susan led brand and communications efforts for the merger of two $750M cybersecurity companies to create and grow a newly named company and brand.
