Vision and Mission

Our ambition is to become the leading global go-to-market platform that streamlines international expansion for businesses, making it faster and simpler. We combine AI-driven analytics, trusted local partnerships, and hands-on execution to ensure real measurable outcomes like revenue growth and shared success. By digitizing market expansion, traditionally reliant on unstructured relationships and knowledge, we offer a software solution to automate this process initially focused on the Gulf region.

• Develop and operate distributor and channel networks both for clients and Omendon directly.
• Recruit and integrate partner ecosystems including distributors, resellers, sales agents, marketing collaborators, and legal/corporate service providers into the platform.
• Translate manual, relationship-driven processes into structured, scalable digital workflows.
• Create expansion solutions designed around achieving results rather than mere tasks.
• Collaborate on complex commercial strategy questions including transitioning services to subscription models and structuring equity-for-execution arrangements.
• Establish a replicable GCC operational framework for expansion into subsequent regions.

Ideal Candidate Profile

• Possesses deep, active networks within the UAE and GCC encompassing distributors, buyers, family offices, corporate services providers, and government-related entities.
• Proven experience successfully initiating distribution channels and securing agreements within the region.
• Based in the UAE or willing to relocate.
• Ability to build scalable processes and systems rather than relying solely on personal relationships.
• Entrepreneurial mindset with a strong desire for ownership beyond just holding a title.
• Arabic language skills are advantageous; professional-level English is mandatory.

Compensation and Benefits

• Attractive co-founder equity in Omendon Holding Ltd subject to an agreed vesting schedule.
• Immediate commission and revenue-sharing tied to business outcomes achieved.
• Salary to be introduced approximately 3–4 months in, aligned with the pre-seed round closure; immediate salary is not available.
