This role is a full-cycle sales position. It will require a strategic mindset, strong mentorship skills, and the ability to navigate complex environments to drive revenue growth within the defined small commercial aviation segment. The Digital Portfolio Sales Director will play a critical role in shaping Boeing's market presence and help our customers improve their operational efficiencies and reduce cost of operations. 

This position can be located in Dubai, UAE and will require travel into Boeing offices and/or client sites as necessary.  The hours for the position may need to accommodate multiple time-zones.

• Develop Customer Solutions: Coordinate with internal and external teams to develop segment-specific tailored solutions that provide a competitive advantage and drive business growth while meeting targeted margins.

• Pipeline Management: Identify and pursue both current and future business opportunities, promoting the value of Boeing's portfolio and fostering strategic partnerships. These responsibilities will include the generation and management of an individual territory sales pipeline which will necessitate ownership of an accurate forecast that will be consulted on a weekly, monthly, and quarterly basis.

• Proposal Preparation and Negotiation: Lead the preparation of proposals, develop compelling themes and discriminators, and ensure the right resources are engaged. Lead negotiations to finalize commitments that benefit both the customer and Boeing.

• Package Solutions: Coordinate the packaging of Boeing and industry products and knowledge into relevant solutions that meet customer requirements.

• Be a Customer Advocate: Lead the approval process by advocating customer requirements and presenting the business case to management to ensure high-quality deals. Balance enterprise, business unit, and customer goals to meet Long Range Business Plan (LRBP) objectives.
