Job Description
Role Overview
This role exists to grow revenue across an already-established OOH portfolio by developing new business from direct clients and media agencies, managing key accounts, and maintaining strong occupancy across the company's inventory.
You'll be stepping into a competitive, mature UAE OOH market. This isn't a market-building role; it's a revenue-growth role, so the company needs someone who can hit the ground running: someone who already understands this market, already has an active network of direct-client and agency relationships, and is ready to convert that network into signed deals from day one. Key Responsibilities
- Generate new business across the company's outdoor advertising portfolio
- Manage and grow a portfolio of key accounts
- Meet with direct clients and media agencies to identify and develop new opportunities
- Prepare and present commercial proposals
- Negotiate and close deals
- Coordinate campaign execution with the operations team
- Cross-sell across the full range of advertising assets
- Represent the company at industry and networking events
- Monitor competitor activity and market trends
