  • Improve win rates and reduce sales-cycle duration through disciplined qualification and execution

  • Build Semperis’ regional presence through customer, partner, and industry engagements

What you will bring

  • 5+ years of B2B commercial sales experience with a track record of delivering against revenue targets, within cybersecurity or adjacent technology

  • Fluency in English and Turkish is essential; Arabic is highly desirable

  • Experience selling to CIOs, CISOs, and senior technology leaders in enterprise, government, or regulated organisations across the GCC and Turkey

  • Strong prospecting and closing skills, with the ability to manage complex opportunities while maintaining deal velocity

  • Success generating pipeline and revenue through distributors, resellers, and systems integrators

  • The ability to translate technical security challenges into a compelling business case for investment

  • A self-starting, accountable approach, with the confidence to build a territory and operate independently in a high-growth environment

  • Existing customer or partner relationships across the region are advantageous

  • Willingness to travel occasionally across the GCC and Turkey
