You will represent high-quality technical solutions aimed at various industrial sectors – one of them being Oil and Gas, working closely with both customers and internal teams to ensure successful delivery and client satisfaction.

• Provide technical consultation and solution selling support to customers.
• Run technical presentations/training sessions to build application understanding and trust.
• Coordinate closely with internal teams to ensure responsive follow-up, quotations, documentation and customer satisfaction.
• Maintain full CRM adoption for lead management, pipeline tracking, forecasting and account mapping.
• Track competitor activity and market trends to strengthen positioning and prioritisation.

Your Profile:

• Engineering qualification (Diploma/Bachelor’s)

• Strong evidence of “hunter” performance: opening new accounts, developing project-based business and delivering growth.
• Good working knowledge of hydraulics / pneumatics, hoses and connecting components (or closely related industrial product categories).

• Strong communication and presentation skills across both site-level and decision-maker audiences.
• Good communication skills in English.
• Willing to travel within UAE frequently.
• Entrepreneurial mindset, strong communication, and negotiation skills.

Our Offer:

• Join a globally established organization with ambitious growth plans in the region.
