EMEA Customer Advocacy Manager

Maintaining Cisco's 40+ year track record of market leadership depends on customer voices. As skepticism around technology claims grows and buying cycles become complex, customer advocacy has shifted from a supporting function to a strategic differentiator–one that directly impacts deal velocity and customer retention. Our Global Customer Advocacy team bridges innovation and market credibility. We identify and amplify customer stories that validate our solutions and shape market perception. Our work directly influences buyer decisions and strengthens customer loyalty.
As a Global Customer Advocacy Manager, you will own the end-to-end lifecycle of customer advocacy, identifying authentic customer narratives that demonstrate Cisco's business impact and drive deal acceleration. You will build trusted relationships across customer organizations—from C-suite to practitioners—to deeply understand their business challenges, innovations and achievements, and spotlight how Cisco has enabled their success.

Partnering with Sales, Marketing, Customer Experience, and Product, you will ensure customers have the visibility and platforms to share their stories with target buyers and stakeholders.
In this role, you will be the strategic champion for our customers, ensuring that their voices are not just heard, but systematically amplified as a measurable engine for demonstrating Cisco’s real-world impact, accelerating deal closure, and substantiating our market position.
