About Tdm Middle East
Trans-Data Management Ltd (TDM), established in London in 2000, is a UK-based supplier of integrated communication and security solutions with a core focus on the transportation sector.
We specialise in operational and critical communications systems, deploying the latest IP-based platforms to deliver robust, innovative, and durable solutions.
Our project credentials include some of the world’s most recognised transportation systems, such as the AlpTransit Gotthard Tunnel (Switzerland), Eurotunnel (UK/France), London Underground (UK), Sydney Metro (Australia), and South West Trains (UK).
Our Help Point systems are widely used across UK and international rail networks.
In 2023, TDM expanded its international footprint by entering into a joint venture in the UAE and forming
Tdm Middle East Llc
, a system design house based in Abu Dhabi.
This regional company focuses on delivering voice, video, and data communication systems for critical sectors across the GCC, including oil and gas, utilities, government, and transportation.
TDM Middle East provides design and supply solutions and is currently serving major clients in the UAE’s industrial and public sectors, including DEWA, Dubai Municipality, Duabi and Abu Dhabi Police, and the Presidential Court (MOPA).
We are a lean, founder-led business.
You will be working directly alongside the General Manager across operations, sales, and marketing.
What You Will Do
- Own the day-to-day:
- Manage day-to-day operations — enquiries, quotations, supplier coordination, and order follow-through from first contact to payment and delivery
- Take partial ownership of the existing client portfolio and maintain strong relationships with key accounts
- Follow up on open quotations and drive conversions
- Support marketing activity with our Marketing Team — assist with content, company communications, LinkedIn presence, and preparation of marketing materials
- Develop product knowledge across the TDM Middle East portfolio— including communication systems, safety solutions, and new product lines — to quote the right solution for each client use case
- Drive lead generation and cold outreach — proactively identify and pursue new clients across Oil & Gas, Utilities, Healthcare, Transportation, and Government sectors
- Attend site visits, client meetings, and occasional exhibitions
Who You Are — Non-Negotiable Requirements
- 3–5 years of experience in a commercial, sales-support, or business operations role in a technical or B2B environment in the UAE.
- Demonstrated Sales capabilities, including opportunity identification, issuing quotations, and relationship management.
- Excellent Communication skills for effective collaboration with internal teams, clients, and external partners. Fluent English speaker. Arabic is a strong advantage.
- Based in Abu Dhabi field visits across UAE are part of this role. UAE driving licence is a strong advantage.
- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, Management, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Organised, detail-oriented, and comfortable operating independently with minimal supervision.
- You are fanatical about record keeping. Honest and loyal above all else, and an early starter and punctual.
What Will Make You Stand Out
- Background in communications, AV, safety systems, or industrial equipment.
- Existing relationships with procurement contacts.
- Experience managing a client portfolio as a solo operator
- You want to grow into a senior operational and commercial role —not just hit a quota, but help shape how the business runs
What We Offer
- Competitive salary
- Commission on all sales you close — uncapped
- Direct access and mentoring from the founder and general manager
- Real influence over how TDM Middle East operates and grows — this is a role with a long-term runway, not a stepping stone.
- Flexible working style — office and remote days possible
- Generous bonus scheme on personal and company performance.
