## Job description

At Semperis, our mission is to be a Force for Good. Starting with being a great place to work. We believe that when people feel valued, supported, and empowered, they do their best work. That’s why we focus on creating an employee experience rooted in purpose, growth, and balance. Semperis has been recognized as one of America’s Fastest-Growing Cybersecurity Companies by the Inc. 5000, a DUNS 100 Top Startup to Work For, and a multi-year Inc. Best Workplace awardee.

Semperis is seeking a Commercial Sales Director to accelerate growth across GCC & Turkey, helping more enterprise, government, and regulated-sector organisations strengthen cyber resilience through identity-first security. In this role, you will lead commercial growth across the region and build Semperis’ market presence. This is a high-impact individual contributor opportunity for a self-starting, commercially driven seller who can combine enterprise selling to CIO and CISO-level buyers with high-velocity deal execution, strong channel engagement, and the ability to navigate complex regional procurement environments. This is a new-business hunting role with a significant opportunity to build a territory and make a visible impact. You will have the autonomy to open doors, create pipeline through direct prospecting, executive relationships, and partner engagement, and win new customers. As you grow Semperis’ presence across the region, you will have the opportunity to expand your scope and grow your career.

## What you will do

- Own the regional sales plan across the GCC and Turkey, covering new-logo and expansion opportunities
- Generate pipeline through targeted prospecting and executive engagement
- Activate distributors, resellers, and systems integrators to source and win business
- Lead discovery with CIOs, CISOs, and senior security leaders, connecting customer risks and priorities to Semperis solutions
- Manage opportunities from qualification through negotiation and close, maintaining clear deal strategies and accurate forecasts
- Navigate GCC procurement processes and complex regulated-sector buying environments
- Collaborate with Channel, Marketing, Solutions Engineering, and Customer Success to progress opportunities and support customers
- Deliver agreed revenue and deal-volume targets, including approximately 3–4 closed-won deals per month, subject to agreed quota and deal-size expectations
- Improve win rates and reduce sales-cycle duration through disciplined qualification and execution
- Build Semperis’ regional presence through customer, partner, and industry engagements

## What you will bring

- 5+ years of B2B commercial sales experience with a track record of delivering against revenue targets, within cybersecurity or adjacent technology
- Fluency in English and Turkish is essential; Arabic is highly desirable
- Experience selling to CIOs, CISOs, and senior technology leaders in enterprise, government, or regulated organisations across the GCC and Turkey
- Strong prospecting and closing skills, with the ability to manage complex opportunities while maintaining deal velocity
- Success generating pipeline and revenue through distributors, resellers, and systems integrators
- The ability to translate technical security challenges into a compelling business case for investment
- A self-starting, accountable approach, with the confidence to build a territory and operate independently in a high-growth environment
- Identity-security experience is preferred; familiarity with Active Directory, hybrid cloud, or cyber resilience is a plus
- Existing customer or partner relationships across the region are advantageous
- Willingness to travel occasionally across the GCC and Turkey
