Lead Acquisition Executive — UAE

About the role
As a Lead Acquisition Executive for the UAE market, your job is to build the top of our funnel — finding and qualifying the companies we should be talking to before anyone else does. You'll research and build target account lists across our focus industries in the UAE, run outbound outreach across email, LinkedIn, and calls to get a real response, and qualify genuine interest from noise. Once a lead is warm and worth a conversation, you hand it off to our Accounts Executive team, who take it from there to close and manage the relationship. This is a pure hunting role — you're measured on the quality and volume of qualified leads you bring in, not on closing them yourself. You should know (or be quick to learn) how UAE businesses actually make purchasing decisions, who the real stakeholders are, and how to get past a gatekeeper. What we're looking for
- Prior experience in outbound lead generation or prospecting, ideally targeting the UAE or wider GCC market
- Comfortable with high-volume outreach and the rejection that comes with it
- Familiarity with tools like LinkedIn Sales Navigator and a CRM — you'll be expected to keep a clean, current pipeline
- Strong written and spoken English
- Understanding of UAE business culture — how deals actually get started there, not just how they're taught in a sales course
- Based in the UAE, or deeply familiar with the market and able to work UAE business hours
- Bonus: Arabic language skills, or prior experience selling into finance, retail, or logistics
