What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles driving regional growth in SaaS/AI talent platforms where I can lead GTM strategy, build strategic partnerships, and scale revenue across MENA.

I am a business development leader with 15+ years driving B2B sales, recruitment, and market expansion across the MENA region, with proven success scaling SaaS and AI-enabled talent platforms.

At Forefront I increased client base 50% YoY, achieved 30% sales growth, and delivered 130 recruitment projects in 2023; I launched Talentin and built strategic partnerships to accelerate market penetration across MENA.

I excel at go-to-market strategy, strategic partnerships, P&L management, and leading cross-functional teams to deliver measurable revenue growth and high-value executive placements.
