Job description
Working as the right hand of the Client Executive on a defined set of Strategic Accounts, this Client Solution Consultant owns the technical message and solution strategy for OpenText in Saudi Arabia. The focus is the One OpenText value proposition, translating client priorities into cross-Business Unit use cases across Content, Business Network, Cybersecurity, IT Operations and Experience & AI. Executive conversations centre on business outcomes and on how OpenText AI maps into each client's AI strategy. Solution Consultants bring product depth, Value Engineers build business cases and adoption roadmaps, and Enterprise Architects check fit with cloud strategy and IT architecture, with you deciding when each joins the cycle. Strategic partners such as SAP, GSIs and local SIs are part of the extended team. Executive briefings, discovery workshops and strategy sessions are led from this seat, as is the technical response to complex multi-solution RFPs. Mentoring Solution Consultants and representing OpenText at regional events round out the role. Candidates need 12+ years in business or enterprise software, including senior presales, consulting or architect experience, a strong Public Sector or Financial Services background, an established senior network across the Middle East and fluent Arabic and English.
