🚀 About MaxAccelerate

At MaxAccelerate, we’re on a mission to bring the world of technology together — combining IBM Maximo, AI-driven data intelligence, and next-generation professional services into one powerful ecosystem.

We partner with some of the world’s largest enterprises and IBM Business Partners to deliver high-impact EAM solutions, digital transformations, supporting partners and our end clinets globally...

This is your chance to join a fast-growing global technology group, work with world‑class teams, and help reshape how organizations manage and optimize their assets.

💡 About the Role

We’re looking for a Head of Professional Services Sales — a commercially driven leader with a deep understanding of enterprise consulting and a passion for customer success.

In this role, you’ll own the global sales strategy for our IBM Maximo and EAM professional services portfolio. You’ll build relationships with major enterprise clients, develop strategic partnerships, and lead high‑value deals that transform how companies operate.

This isn’t a technical role — it’s about vision, relationships, and results. You’ll be the face of MaxAccelerate to the market: driving growth, inspiring clients, and shaping the future of EAM solutions worldwide.

🔧 What You’ll Do

• Lead the Professional Services sales strategy for IBM Maximo, MAS 9, and EAM transformation projects.
• Identify and close new business opportunities across key industries (utilities, transport, manufacturing, government).
• Build and nurture long‑term client and partner relationships.
• Develop proposals, lead negotiations, and secure multi‑year service engagements.
• Collaborate closely with our delivery and marketing teams to align resources and go‑to‑market efforts.
• Represent MaxAccelerate at industry events, IBM partner summits, and webinars.
• Expand adjacent service lines, including MAS upgrades, managed services, and AI‑driven reporting (DataMax AI).

🧠 What You’ll Bring

• Proven track record in professional services or EAM sales, ideally with IBM Maximo or similar enterprise software.
• Experience in solution selling, enterprise consulting, or partner management.
• Strong commercial and negotiation skills with C‑level clients.
• Understanding of Maximo / MAS 8–9 ecosystem, upgrades, and implementation lifecycles (advantageous).
• Self‑driven, entrepreneurial mindset — able to work remotely and deliver results.
• Excellent presentation and communication skills.

✨ Why Join Us

• Be part of a global technology group transforming the EAM industry.
• Work with cutting‑edge solutions including DataMax AI and IBM Maximo MAS 9.
• Collaborate with world‑class consultants and AI specialists.
• Remote‑first environment — work from anywhere.
• Relocation sponsorship to Dubai with tax‑free earnings option.
• Competitive base salary + up to 25% commission on closed deals.
• Fast‑track career growth within a high‑performing international team.
