About the Role: Responsibilities, Skills, and Requirements
Ever wondered what it feels like to truly connect people with the latest in telecom technology, right out in the community? As an Outdoor Sales Executive focusing on telecom services in Mohammed Bin Zayed City, you’re not just chasing targets — you’re taking the pulse of Abu Dhabi’s neighborhoods and helping customers stay seamlessly connected. If the idea of being out in the city, meeting new faces, and turning conversations into genuine value sounds like your kind of challenge, this could be a great next step.
About the Company
We’re a fast-growing telecom provider with a big footprint across the UAE, and an even bigger ambition: to be recognized for our customer-first approach and energetic sales force. Here, no two days (or deals) look quite the same. We believe success is built on trust, teamwork, and the kind of open communication that rivals a good group chat. Fridays bring spirited team roundups, and wins — big or small — don’t go unnoticed. When we say you’re part of the family, we mean it.
