About the Role

The Regional Sales Manager will report directly to the VP Middle East & Chief Digital Transformation Officer and will work closely with regional delivery, pre-sales, and product management teams.


Responsibilities


  • Develop and execute comprehensive regional sales strategies to meet and exceed software and services revenue targets (software solutions, SaaS, licensing, digital transformation).
  • Identify and secure new enterprise clients while nurturing long-term relationships with key accounts and CXO-level stakeholders.
  • Manage the end-to-end enterprise sales cycle — from prospecting, RFPs, proposals, and negotiations to deal closure.
  • Ensure timely revenue collection and follow-up with existing accounts while driving upselling and cross-selling opportunities.
  • Drive and expand the partner ecosystem by establishing relationships with system integrators, VARs, and channel partners across GCC.
  • Ensure compliance with regional regulatory requirements (e.g., public tenders, data residency norms, SaaS/cloud compliance).
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Pre-Sales, Delivery, Product, Marketing, and Partner Management teams to ensure client satisfaction and solution alignment.
  • Represent the company at regional trade events, summits, and conferences to enhance brand visibility and thought leadership.
  • Provide accurate sales forecasts, pipeline insights, and market intelligence to senior management.



Qualifications



  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Computer Science, Engineering, or related field; MBA preferred.
  • 5–8 years of enterprise software sales experience, including 5+ years in a regional leadership capacity within GCC.
  • Proven success in selling SaaS, cloud platforms, and enterprise solutions to large/mid-sized clients.
  • Deep understanding of GCC market regulations, tendering processes, and enterprise procurement frameworks.
  • Established network of enterprise clients and partners in key markets (especially KSA, Qatar, and UAE).
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and presentation skills.
  • Strong soft skills – resilience, adaptability, cross-cultural negotiation, and leadership under pressure.
  • Fluency in English and Arabic is mandatory.

  • Must hold a valid GCC residency and driving license.



Required Skills



  • Achievement of quarterly and annual revenue and pipeline targets.
  • Market expansion metrics – new account acquisitions, territory penetration, and strategic account growth.
  • Growth of partner ecosystem and regional alliances.
  • Brand visibility and participation in industry events, thought leadership engagements, and client references.
  • Customer satisfaction and retention, including upsell and cross-sell performance.
  • Team development and leadership contribution to future GCC/MEA expansion initiatives.



Preferred Skills



  • High-visibility leadership role with potential to progress into Head of Sales – MEA or Regional Director positions based on consistent performance.
  • Opportunity to influence regional strategy, product localization, and future market entry planning across the Middle East & Africa.
