Job description

Location: Sharjah SAIF Zone, UAE (Hybrid / Extensive Travel)

Employment Type: Full-time

About Us

We are a brand-new, state-of-the-art industrial enzyme manufacturing facility located in the Sharjah SAIF Zone.

As we launch our commercial operations, we are looking for an entrepreneurial, high-drive sales professional to pioneer our growth in the formulation and detergent sectors.

The Role

Key Responsibilities

• Market Penetration: Identify, target, and secure new business accounts within the industrial and consumer detergent manufacturing sectors.
• Technical Value Selling: Present our enzyme portfolio to clients' R&D, procurement, and technical teams, demonstrating how our products improve formulation performance and reduce costs.
• Regional Travel: Travel extensively across the UAE, GCC, and broader regions to meet clients, audit manufacturing requirements, and close deals.
• Account Management: Manage the full sales lifecycle from initial technical sampling and lab trials to commercial negotiation and long-term account management.
• Pipeline Ownership: Manage sales forecasting and pipeline metrics, directly impacting the company's net profitability.

What We Offer

• Highly Incentivized Pay: A lean guaranteed base with an aggressive, uncapped bonus structure directly tied to the net profit of your sales. Your earning potential is directly proportional to your success.
• Pioneer Status: The opportunity to be one of the first commercial hires in a brand-new, high-tech manufacturing plant.
• Strategic Location: Based in the accessible and business-friendly Sharjah SAIF Zone.

Skills

Requirements

• Experience: Direct experience in selling industrial chemicals, ingredients, or enzymes to the Detergent or FMCG sector is highly advantageous.
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Biotechnology, or a related technical field is preferred.
• Mobility: Must possess a valid passport, UAE driving license, UAE residency and have total flexibility/willingness to travel frequently across the region for client facing meetings.
• Attributes: Self-starter, highly resilient, culturally aware, and commercially sharp with excellent negotiation skills.
