• Work closely with finance and analytics to ensure accurate forecasting, margin visibility, and scenario planning.

4. Operational Excellence

• Identify and resolve bottlenecks across BAU sales ops workflows (e.g. Salesforce cleanups, account hierarchies, onboarding SLAs).

• Simplify, automate, and elevate—from process fixes to systemic tools adoption (e.g. AMC, tPro workflows, downranking).

5. Strategic Projects & Product Co-Ownership

• Drive the development and execution of UAE-led innovations like AMC, tStar, Cold Start Automations, and partner app enhancements.

• Serve as the local business voice in regional product builds, from ideation to roll-out, ensuring alignment with UAE needs.

6. Data Fluency & Decision Infrastructure

• You’re a trusted operator and strategic thought partner—comfortable challenging ideas, aligning stakeholders, and influencing decisions.
