I korthet
Saab is seeking a Business Development & Sales Manager for its Land Domain in Abu Dhabi, UAE. The role focuses on developing and executing sales strategies for tactical Counter-UAS and Training & Simulation systems, building customer relationships within the military and government sectors, and managing the entire sales process from opportunity identification to contract closure.

Ansvarsområden
- Building and maintaining strong relationships with Land Forces, Air Defense units, Ministry of Defense (MoD) and other relevant military branches and government agencies.
- Identifying and qualifying new opportunities, and owning the capture process from first meeting to signed contract: proposal, negotiation and contract closure.
- Shaping complete C-UAS solutions across sensors, C2 and effectors, and knowing when the answer is a single system and when it's a layered defense.
- Positioning training & simulation as a capability in its own right and showing customers how it raises readiness across every other system they operate.
- Representing Saab's full land portfolio towards customers, and adjusting focus as needs, sales strategy and export regulations change.
- Running proposals: developing win themes, coordinating operational and pricing teams, and keeping product owners in sync.
- Translating operator needs into solutions and translating engineer-speak into customer-speak and back again.
- Tracking competitive intelligence, market trends and price-to-win.
- Working with Saab business units to position for future programs and growing existing customer relationships into long-term partnerships.
Krav
- At least 5 years of experience in defense sales, business development or capture, or a senior Army background with hands-on knowledge of air defense, C-UAS or military training from the user side.
- A degree in business or engineering, or an equivalent military academy qualification.
- A track record in defense business, including at least one deal you still tell stories about.
- Experience negotiating agreements with defense customers.
- A solid understanding of tactical C-UAS or air defense concepts, and how sensors, C2 and effectors fit together.
- Excellent English, and the ability to make complex material simple on one slide (two, maximum).
- The ability to obtain the necessary security clearances.
- Must be approved in a security vetting in accordance to ISO:27001+
Önskade kvalifikationer
- Experience with military training systems or simulation is a strong plus.
- A broad understanding of land operations beyond C-UAS and training areas.
- Experience from the Middle East, ideally the UAE.
- Knowledge of the Tawazun Council acquisition process and government procurement procedures.
- Arabic language skills.
- Ability to explain C-UAS to a family member and have them understand.
Förmåner
- A mission that matters.
- Room to grow: this role is a springboard, scope and title grow with delivery.
- Go deep in tactical C-UAS and training, while getting to know the full land portfolio.
- A team that works hard and laughs a lot.
- Scandinavian work culture.
- Global backing with the pace and closeness of a local team.
