Corporate Account Executive-Middle East

Veson Nautical is a well-established and rapidly growing software company working to provide end-to-end logistical, operational, and analytical solutions to propel the efficiency and effectiveness of Maritime Commerce.

As part of the Corporate Sales team, the Corporate Account Executive will be the primary representative of Veson to prospective clients across the Middle East region, with a focus on the small to mid-sized market segments.

The Corporate Account Executive will own the full sales cycle - from prospecting to deal closure - while collaborating closely with internal teams to position Veson’s solutions effectively and drive sustainable revenue growth. You will also inherit a small portfolio of existing regional accounts with significant untapped potential - a built-in opportunity to accelerate early revenue while you establish your territory.
