Experienced sales and support leader driving growth across EMEA distribution channels.
What I'm looking for
I am a sales and support leader with extensive experience promoting cloud storage and managing distribution channels across EMEA, particularly DACH. At Wasabi Technologies I led go-to-market activities, built forecasts in HubSpot and Salesforce, and developed partner channels including MSPs, resellers, and distributors.
Previously I led large operations and facilities projects at Ooredoo, designing and deploying retail stores, rebranding programs, and supervision centers while monitoring KPIs and reporting to general management. I also served in technical and product roles at TÜV Maghreb and Siemens, contributing to training, certification, audits, and telecommunications network projects across multiple countries.
I bring strong leadership, business development, HR and strategy skills, combined with project management, customer-first support, and multilingual communication in Arabic, French, English and German. I seek roles where I can drive commercial growth, mentor teams, and build scalable partner ecosystems.
