▸ Coordinate with operations and tender department to develop competitive proposals and pricing
▸ Leverage Arabic-language relationships to access opportunities not visible through public channels

What We'Re Looking For
▸ Minimum 5 years in a commercial or BD role within Facility Management, O&M, or a closely related sector in the UAE
▸ Proven track record of winning FM contracts — bring your numbers
▸ Active network within UAE real estate developers, OAMs, or government FM departments
▸ Native or fluent Arabic speaker — non-negotiable
▸ Strong English communication skills (written and verbal)
▸ Self-starter comfortable operating in a lean, growing organization — visa sponsorship not mandatory; freelancers with own UAE trade licence are welcome to apply
What We Offer
▸ Competitive market-rate salary + commission on contracts won — structure open to discussion for both employed and freelance arrangements
▸ The backing of an established international group with a solid delivery reputation
▸ Direct access to senior management and fast decision-making
▸ Real ownership of the UAE BD function — this is a growth role.
