Résumé du poste

Jobfinders in Saudi Arabia seeks an experienced Head of Sales to own annual revenue and lead multi-channel commercial strategies across key accounts, export, and retail channels. The role requires strong pricing discipline, margin focus, and leadership to translate yearly plans into actionable targets.

You will coordinate with Operations, drive product mix and export growth, and deliver a dashboard for the Acting GM covering revenue, margins, forecast accuracy, and export progress.

Qualifications

• 8-15 years of relevant experience in food manufacturing, FMCG, agri-products, food distribution, or adjacent sectors.
• Hands-on leadership experience across multiple channels: key accounts, traditional trade, export, and retail/shop channels.
• Strong commercial toolkit: pricing, margin management, trade terms, salesforce management, portfolio optimization, forecasting, and channel planning.
• Strong familiarity with Saudi Arabia / GCC market dynamics; Saudi experience strongly preferred.
• Track record of delivering growth in lean organizations where commercial discipline matters as much as relationship management.
• Comfortable operating with data, spreadsheets, and weekly performance management rather than relying only on broad sales relationships.
• Arabic and English fluency preferred.

Responsabilités

• Own the company’s full-year revenue delivery against approved budget and monthly run-rate targets.
• Translate the 2026 sales plan into account-level, manager-level, and geography-level targets with weekly tracking.
• Drive pricing discipline by establishing approval thresholds, discount guardrails, price lists, and exception controls.
• Improve product mix toward higher-value and higher-margin categories, especially seedless confectionery and other value-added date products.
• Lead all commercial channels under one framework, including key accounts, government-related sales, export, retail/shop channels, and van sales.
• Develop and execute the company’s export growth plan including market prioritization, distributor development, and profitability review.
• Coordinate monthly SOP inputs with Operations and Supply Chain to align with production availability and service levels.
• Build channel-specific commercial routines, monthly business reviews, pricing reviews, and corrective actions on underperformance.
• Monitor gross-to-net leakage and ensure promotional decisions are deliberate, documented, and margin-accretive.
• Strengthen customer portfolio quality through new-customer wins, improved collections, and reduction of overdue receivables.
• Coach, challenge, and manage the sales team with clear accountabilities and performance reviews.
• Provide Acting GM with a simple monthly commercial dashboard covering revenue, volume, ASP, product mix, margin, collections, forecast accuracy, and export progress.
• Allocate sales targets by manager, customer group, and geography.
• Prioritize sales effort by product family, market, and customer segment based on profitability and strategic fit.
• Approve account plans, promotional proposals, and export development priorities within delegated authority levels.
• Escalate material pricing deviations, credit issues, or major disputes to the Acting GM.
