Business Development Manager

We're working with a global leader in industrial water treatment technology — a unicorn-valued business with operations across 23 countries and a client base that's 80%+ Fortune 100. They're making their first serious push into KSA and need a hunter to lead it.

The role

This is a pure business development role — no inherited territory, no warm pipeline. You'll be building their KSA presence from scratch, targeting oil and gas, infrastructure, data centres, and EPC water projects. You'll have full backing from a world-class technical and engineering team. The mandate is market penetration.

What they're looking for

• A proven hunter — someone who has built a sales business from the ground in KSA, not managed an existing account base
• Strong knowledge across EPC water projects, industrial chemicals, or offshore oil and gas systems
• An established network across government, semi-government, and SABIC stakeholders in KSA
• Entrepreneurial and self-driven — comfortable being the first and only person on the ground
• Arabic is preferred but not mandatory — an expat with deep KSA market knowledge is equally welcome
