Job description

Chinese industrial champions are building factories, localising supply chains and acquiring companies across the Middle East and Africa, and Siemens Digital Industries wants to follow that expansion closely. DI S GED (Global Export Development) is the new team set up to do it, and this Dubai-based senior business developer acts as its orchestration point for MEA. Investment, project, localisation and EPC signals linked to priority Chinese customers are detected and qualified into DI opportunity hypotheses. Relevant MEA Country and account teams, China GJOs, Verticals and Technology Units are then mobilised around each customer's expansion. Commercial ownership stays with the established Country organisation, so influence comes from connecting people rather than formal authority. Siemens also stays neutral among EPCs, OEMs and other partners, and local signals unrelated to priority Chinese customers are outside the mandate. Successful patterns are captured and replicated across countries, and GED data, qualification and digital capabilities are built up along the way. Strong experience in industrial business development, EPC or project development, or key-account development is expected, ideally with China-related or cross-border investment exposure. Fluent English is required, and Arabic or Mandarin Chinese is a strong advantage.
