Overview

VP of Sales – Global Enterprise Technology

Location: Dubai, UAE (regional And global remit)

Our client is a global, high-growth technology business at the forefront of its sector, with a strong footprint across EMEA, APAC and the Americas, and a growing strategic focus on the Middle East as a hub for regional and international expansion.

Backed by a strong balance sheet and an ambitious growth trajectory, the business is scaling its commercial leadership team and is seeking a VP of Sales to drive enterprise revenue growth globally, with Dubai as a key strategic base.

The Role

This is a senior, high-impact leadership position responsible for owning and scaling the global enterprise sales function.

You will build and lead a high-performing sales organisation, own the revenue number, and play a central role in shaping go-to-market strategy as the business enters its next phase of growth.

This role reports directly to the C-suite (CRO/CEO) and will have significant influence over commercial strategy, hiring, and market expansion.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own and deliver the global enterprise sales revenue target, building a scalable, repeatable sales motion
  • Build, lead, and mentor a high-performing sales team across multiple regions/time zones
  • Develop and execute go-to-market strategy for new and existing markets, with particular focus on GCC/MENA expansion
  • Build and manage a senior stakeholder network, including C-level relationships with enterprise clients, partners, and channel players
  • Own the full sales cycle for strategic/enterprise accounts, from prospecting through to close and account growth
  • Partner closely with Marketing, Product, and Customer Success to align commercial strategy with product roadmap and market positioning
  • Build robust sales infrastructure: forecasting, pipeline management, CRM discipline, and reporting to the board/investors
  • Represent the business at industry events, conferences, and with strategic partners/investors

Candidate Specification

  • 20+ years of progressive enterprise sales experience, with a strong track record in technology sales leadership (VP Sales, Head of Sales, or equivalent)
  • Deep domain experience in Cybersecurity, Crypto/Digital Assets, Web3, or adjacent high-growth technology sectors strongly preferred
  • Demonstrable track record of building and scaling enterprise sales teams from the ground up, ideally within high-growth or scale-up environments
  • Strong existing network across the Dubai/GCC market — prior experience living and working in the region is highly desirable
  • Proven ability to close large, complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise deals (six and seven-figure ACV)
  • Experience selling into regulated or security-conscious buyers (CISOs, CTOs, CFOs, institutional/enterprise buyers) is a strong advantage
  • A genuine builder mentality — comfortable operating with the resources and ambiguity of a scaling business, not just managing an existing machine
  • Strong commercial and financial acumen; comfortable owning forecasting, pipeline, and board-level reporting
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, credible at C-suite and board level
  • Fluent English essential; Arabic a plus but not required
  • Senior leadership role with genuine influence over global commercial strategy
  • Competitive base salary + uncapped commission/OTE + equity/long-term incentive plan
  • Dubai base with regional and international travel
  • The opportunity to build and scale a function from a position of real seniority within a well-funded, ambitious business
