Opportunity overview
Regional commercial leadership role for a high-growth business in AI infrastructure, edge computing, and next-generation cloud technologies.
Initial focus is Saudi Arabia, with potential to take broader regional commercial responsibility as the business expands.
The business has investment, enterprise and government customers, technology partnerships, operations across four regional countries, and further expansion planned.
Location and scope
- The role is based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and covers Saudi Arabia and the wider Middle East.
Responsibilities
- Own revenue growth across Saudi Arabia and develop and execute the KSA go-to-market strategy.
- Build relationships with senior decision-makers at major enterprises, government organisations, and strategic accounts.
- Identify and convert significant new business opportunities and lead complex, high-value enterprise and government sales cycles.
- Develop strategic relationships across the regional technology ecosystem and partnerships with global technology vendors.
- Build and develop the commercial organisation as the business scales.
- Work with the CEO and senior leadership team on commercial strategy and support expansion into new regional markets.
Your background
- 10+ years’ experience in enterprise technology sales or business development.
- Proven Saudi Arabia revenue-generation track record and an established network across enterprise, government, and strategic accounts.
- Ability to build relationships at CEO, CIO, CTO, and CDO level; strong new-business capability.
- Experience leading sales teams and developing commercial organisations, ideally in a start-up, scale-up, or entrepreneurial technology environment.
- GCC or wider Middle East exposure is highly advantageous.
- Excellent Arabic and English communication skills.
- Relevant technology experience may include AI, edge computing, cloud, data, HPC, GPU infrastructure, data centres, MLOps, cybersecurity, or digital transformation.
- AI infrastructure, edge computing, GPU/HPC, or sovereign AI experience is particularly attractive but is not presented as mandatory.
- Experience at a major technology organisation followed by a smaller, high-growth technology business would be particularly relevant.
