Manage senior relationships at strategic accounts, building long-term, multi-level relationship maps, and representing Front End at industry forums, client technical days, and conferences.
Own the bid governance process for the division, including bid/no-bid decisions, pricing approvals, risk reviews, and final submission quality.
Work with Operations and Engineering to ensure technical proposals are differentiated, deliverable, and competitively priced, driving continuous improvement through win/loss analysis.
Collaborate with global principals (*, Acteon, ATV, Beyond Limits, Booster Fuels, Elutions, Euro Pipeline, Okonite) to position their technologies into KSA opportunities.
Identify gaps in the partner portfolio and recommend new principal agreements to unlock specific market segments, co-developing joint go-to-market plans and campaigns.
Identify adjacent service lines, geographies, and client segments for expansion, building business cases for new offerings such as AI-enabled monitoring, predictive maintenance, and digital twin services.
Provide accurate, disciplined forecasting of bookings and revenue to the executive team, and deliver structured market intelligence on competitors, pricing, client priorities, and regulatory shifts.
