At OpenText, AI is at the heart of everything we do—powering innovation, transforming work, and empowering digital knowledge workers. We're hiring talent that AI can't replace to help us shape the future of information management. Join us.

 


YOUR IMPACT

As a Senior Account Executive for the Middle East, you’ll drive high-value strategic sales initiatives across enterprise and public-sector clients throughout the region. You’ll represent OpenText’s full Cybersecurity portfolio — spanning Application Security, Data Security & Privacy, Identity & Access Management, and Security Operations — while shaping long-term partnerships with influential stakeholders.

You’ll work closely with Solution Engineers, Product Leaders, and Channel Partners to guide clients through complex procurement cycles, champion business outcomes, and accelerate adoption of OpenText’s security solutions across the Middle East.

WHAT THE ROLE OFFERS

  • Lead the adoption and expansion of OpenText Cybersecurity solutions across priority accounts in the Middle East
  • Own the end-to-end sales cycle — from pipeline creation and opportunity development to negotiations, closure, and ongoing account growth
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver measurable business value and strong ROI
  • Build long-term account strategies aligned with regional digital-security transformation priorities
  • Influence technical and commercial stakeholders through strong relationship management and consultative selling
  • Strengthen and defend OpenText’s market presence in a highly strategic and rapidly evolving region

WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED

  • 15+ years of enterprise software or cybersecurity sales experience across the Middle East
  • Strong understanding of regional procurement dynamics, compliance requirements, and client decision-making processes
  • Demonstrated record of consistently achieving or exceeding annual sales targets
  • Experience selling cybersecurity solutions such as Application Security, SIEM, Identity & Access Management, or Data Protection & Privacy
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills with senior technical and business leaders
