Job description

Overview

The Role Area Business Manager – Riyadh Region (Sales-Focused) We are seeking a sales-focused and results-driven Area Business Manager to drive market growth and revenue performance across the Riyadh region. The ideal candidate is a self-starter with a strong background in sales, client relationship management, and business development. For the first three months, the candidate will operate independently, supported remotely by the operations team for all logistics and fulfillment needs. This role is ideal for a highly motivated professional capable of working autonomously, building a strong sales pipeline from the ground up, and preparing the foundation for future team expansion.

Responsibilities

• Develop and implement the regional sales strategy with a focus on revenue growth, lead generation, and new client acquisition.
• Independently manage all sales activities in the Riyadh region during the first three months, building momentum before the team is expanded.
• Establish strong relationships with prospective and existing clients, acting as the face of the company in the region.
• Collaborate closely with the operations team to ensure timely delivery, order fulfillment, and customer satisfaction—without being involved in logistics execution.
• Track, analyze, and report sales performance, identifying areas for improvement and tactical adjustments.
• Conduct ongoing market research and competitor analysis to uncover growth opportunities and inform strategic decisions.
• Provide feedback to product and marketing teams to adapt offerings to local market dynamics and customer preferences.
• Lay the groundwork for scaling up the sales operation, including recruitment planning, territory mapping, and team structure.
• Develop and implement business strategies to achieve regional sales targets and growth objectives.
• Lead and manage the performance of the area sales team, providing guidance, coaching, and motivation.
• Analyze market trends and competitor activities to identify new business opportunities.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with key clients, partners, and stakeholders.
• Monitor operational efficiency and ensure compliance with company policies and standards.
• Collaborate with marketing and product teams to tailor offerings to the local market needs.

Requirements

• Proven experience in sales and business development, preferably within the Saudi Arabian market.
• Strong self-management skills with the ability to operate independently and make strategic decisions in a startup-like setting.
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and client engagement abilities.
• Analytical mindset with a data-driven approach to sales planning and performance tracking.
• Fluent in Arabic and English.
