- IP protected, institutionally backed, and deployed with marquee clients including King Salman Park and JEDCO.

- Understand how to sell a premium product against cheaper incumbents by building the business case.
- Navigated government and quasi government procurement in KSA.
- Hunter mindset – built commercial functions from near zero.
Fundamental Responsibilities
- Own Terraxy’s commercial strategy end to end: pipeline development, pricing, positioning, and revenue targets.
- Close enterprise B2B contracts with institutional buyers — government entities, real estate developers, agribusiness operators, and landscaping contractors across KSA and the Gulf.
- Build and manage relationships with key accounts including King Salman Park, JEDCO, NADEC, and comparable entities.
- Lead the full sales cycle from prospecting through negotiation and close, working directly with the founders.
- Design and implement a scalable commercial model capable of supporting the company through Series A and beyond.

- Work cross functionally with the founders on product positioning, pricing strategy, and market expansion.
Your Competencies
- Experienced, self driven commercial leader who sets targets and executes with urgency.
- Demonstrated ability to sell value — not price — by building TCO or ROI arguments.
- Fluent in institutional procurement: how decisions are made in government linked entities, large real estate developers, and landscaping contractors in KSA.
- Strong interpersonal and negotiation skills, credible at senior levels across public and private sectors.
- Can build a function from scratch; comfortable with ambiguity.
- Performance compensation oriented.
- Based in KSA or genuinely willing to relocate — this is not a remote role.
Success & Measurement
- Commercial revenue: Year 1 target anchored on CarboSoil contract value, pipeline velocity, and deal close rate.
- Pipeline development: quality and depth of qualified opportunities with institutional buyers across KSA and the Gulf.
- Account acquisition: number and strategic value of new accounts signed within the first 12 months.
- Operational contribution: establishment of commercial processes, CRM hygiene, and reporting cadence.
- Stakeholder management: quality of relationships built with key institutional accounts and government contacts.
- General contribution to the company’s growth, credibility, and team culture.
Requirements
- 10+ years of B2B commercial experience, with a verified track record of closing enterprise deals — named accounts and contract values required.
- Demonstrated institutional buyer relationships in KSA and/or UAE — real estate, agribusiness, government linked entities, or landscaping sectors.
- Strong understanding of value based and consultative selling; experience navigating long, complex sales cycles with multiple stakeholders.
- Hunter mindset — has built a commercial function from near zero; is self directed and performance compensation oriented.
- Based in KSA (Riyadh or Eastern Province) or committed to near term relocation.
- Fluent English oral and written communication. Arabic proficiency a strong plus — not required.
- Saudi national preferred. Not a hard requirement — strong non national candidates will be considered.
- Sector experience in agri inputs, cleantech, landscaping, or related fields — a plus, not a prerequisite.
- Existing named relationships at King Salman Park, JEDCO, NADEC, or comparable government and quasi government accounts in KSA — advantageous.
