Business Development Executive - (KSA)

Business Development Executive

TechGenies KSA

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia | Full-Time | Arabic & English | Saudi nationals strongly preferred (Nitaqat)

About the Role

TechGenies KSA is launching in the Kingdom and hiring a founding Business Development Executive to build the market from the ground up. You will be the first commercial hire and, in the early months, the only person driving the business, taking TechGenies KSA from a standing start to its first signed clients. You will own the full cycle end to end: sourcing leads, running outreach, qualifying, pitching, and closing. This is a hands-on role. A separate team owns content and social media and feeds you leads, and TechGenies provides the tools, systems, and delivery infrastructure behind you. As the business gains traction, around the three to four month mark or as soon as the client base can support it, you will build and lead your own sales team and step into a KSA sales leadership role, with real progression into executive management.

What You Will Do

• Own direct outreach across HR Tech, Education, Corporate AI Training, and Oil & Gas, engaging Real Estate, Retail, and Logistics reactively

• Build and manage your pipeline from first contact through signed contract

• Qualify and convert leads from partner introductions and marketing

• Represent TechGenies KSA at industry events, and keep pipeline and activity current in Zoho CRM

• Bring in TechGenies' technical and solution specialists to support deals when useful

How Success Is Measured

This is a data-led role. From day one you will be measured on activity and pipeline metrics tracked in Zoho CRM: outreach volume, meetings booked, conversion into qualified opportunities and signed deals, self-sourced versus sourced pipeline, and sales-cycle length. A revenue target is set jointly once ideal client profiles and typical deal sizes are validated in the market.

Requirements

• 7 or more years of B2B sales or business development experience, ideally in tech, SaaS, or professional services

• An existing, active network in HR Tech and/or Education in Saudi Arabia

• A track record of independently sourcing and closing deals, not just managing inbound

• Full professional fluency in Arabic and English, spoken and written

• Based in or willing to relocate to Riyadh

• Energized by building from zero, and ready to discuss your numbers: past target attainment, typical deal size, sales-cycle length, and share of pipeline you sourced yourself

Benefits

• Competitive base salary plus uncapped, tiered commission on first-year contract value

• Equity or profit-sharing opportunity as the KSA business scales

• Full operational support, with TechGenies' global delivery infrastructure behind you

• A clear path into regional GCC leadership
