About the role

As an Account Executive (Hunter), you will be at the forefront of driving Alaan's growth across the Middle East by proactively sourcing and closing new business opportunities. This is a full-cycle sales role where you'll be responsible for building your own pipeline—from prospecting and outreach to product demos and deal closure.

What You'll Do

• Identify, source, and qualify new business opportunities through outbound channels such as cold calling, LinkedIn outreach, email campaigns, and networking
• Own the entire sales cycle: from lead generation to discovery, demo, negotiation, and closing
• Conduct tailored product demonstrations that address the prospect's specific pain points
• Build and nurture strong relationships with key decision-makers and multiple customer personas
• Drive new customer onboarding by working closely with the Customer Success team for a seamless handover
• Take ownership of the customer activation cycle
• Maintain accurate pipeline and forecasting in the CRM (Salesforce) system

What We Are Looking For

• 1-2 years of experience in a lead-generating or outbound B2B sales role, ideally within a SaaS or tech-driven environment
• A true hunter mindset: motivated by targets, driven by numbers, and proactive in generating opportunities
• Comfortable with cold calling, outbound prospecting, and using tools like LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Apollo, or similar
• Strong consultative selling skills and ability to map solutions to customer needs
• Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills
• Self-starter who thrives in a high-growth, fast-paced startup environment
• A customer-first attitude with a deep desire to solve real business problems
• Fluent in English (Arabic is a plus)

What's in it for you

• Contribute to building the Middle East's most beloved fintech brand from the ground up
• Benefit from a role with significant ownership and accountability
• Thrive in a flexible hybrid culture with ample work-life balance
• Participate in exciting offsite events
• Competitive salary and equity
• Enjoy additional perks like travel allowances, gym memberships, and more
