Role Overview

A fast-growing AI technology company is seeking a Sales & Client Director to drive strategic revenue across AI solution pillars and services.

The quota-carrying role focuses on originating, shaping, and closing complex AI engagements and expanding strategic accounts.

The initial territory is the UAE, with potential expansion into the broader MENA region as the business scales.

Solution Domains

  • The role may cover AI Strategy and Transformation, AI Engineering and Applications, AI Infrastructure and Cloud, AI Security and Risk, or AI Data Centers and AI Factories.
  • The successful candidate should have strong depth in at least one listed domain while remaining conversant across the broader AI landscape.

Revenue Ownership

  • Own annual revenue, bookings, and pipeline targets, define the UAE go-to-market plan, and qualify, shape, and close strategic enterprise opportunities.
  • Build executive relationships, expand accounts through cross-sell and upsell, and maintain pipeline discipline, forecasting accuracy, and commercial accountability.

Executive Engagement

  • Build trusted relationships with CIOs, CTOs, CDOs, CISOs, COOs, Heads of AI, and other business leaders.
  • Lead conversations about AI transformation, business value, operational integration, scalability, security, and ROI.
  • Translate customer priorities into actionable AI initiatives and position the company as a long-term strategic AI partner.

Solution Selling

  • Lead consultative sales motions across strategy, applications, engineering, infrastructure, security, and operations.
  • Navigate sales cycles involving executive sponsors, technology teams, procurement, finance, and legal.
  • Own deal strategy, commercial positioning, value articulation, pricing logic, negotiations, proposals, and proofs of concept.

Market Development

  • Build pipeline through targeted account development, executive networks, strategic partnerships, and market engagement.
  • Develop knowledge of the UAE AI and technology ecosystem, identify market opportunities, and provide market intelligence to leadership.
  • Represent the organization at executive forums, industry events, and strategic customer discussions.

Cross-Functional Delivery

  • Coordinate Solution Architects, Presales, Product, Engineering, and Delivery teams around strategic opportunities.
  • Mobilize internal expertise, support contract negotiations and governance discussions, and ensure a smooth transition into delivery.

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of enterprise B2B technology sales experience, including significant experience in AI, cloud, cybersecurity, infrastructure, data, or advanced technology.
  • Proven success with large, complex enterprise deals, consultative solution selling, executive relationships, multi-stakeholder cycles, negotiation, and deal structuring.
  • Strong knowledge of the UAE market and an established executive network are highly desirable; Arabic capability is an advantage.

Growth Scope

The role initially operates as a senior individual contributor with full ownership of commercial results.

The successful candidate may help define market coverage and hiring needs and potentially build and mentor a sales team as the UAE business scales.
