About norbloc
norbloc builds data-sharing infrastructure for regulated industries. Our Fides platform powers national-scale eKYC in the UAE, letting licensed financial institutions share verified customer data instead of collecting it again. Sancus, our KYC/KYB orchestration platform, lets banks, EMIs and payment firms run onboarding, screening and ongoing due diligence in one workflow. We have operated since 2016, with teams in Dubai, Athens and Stockholm.
The role
You will own Sancus sales in the UAE. It is a hands-on role: you close deals yourself and run a small commercial team day to day. You report to the CEO and work closely with our delivery and product teams. The UAE market is changing fast as national eKYC goes live, and you will be the person who turns that into signed contracts.
What you will do
- Run deals end to end with UAE banks, EMIs, payment firms and exchange houses: discovery, qualification, demo, proposal, negotiation, signature
- Build and own a qualified pipeline; walk away from deals that do not fit
- Lead and coach a deal owner and an outreach specialist with clear weekly targets
- Keep HubSpot as the single source of truth and forecast accurately
- Work with delivery and engineering to scope implementations and price proposals
- Grow existing clients and open doors through partners such as data providers and consultanciesHow to apply

- A network of compliance, risk and operations leaders at UAE banks, EMIs and payment firms
- Experience managing at least one person or running a sales pod
- Discipline with a CRM, a forecast and a qualification framework
- Based in Dubai or ready to relocate; Arabic is a plus
