• Overview

We are looking for an outgoing, relationship-driven Partnerships & Business Development Executive to join the Unipal family. This role goes beyond traditional sales — we are seeking someone who enjoys meeting different types of businesses, understands their needs, and focuses on building strong, lasting partnerships, not just closing one-time deals.

• Identify, approach, and sign new business partners to join the Unipal platform.
• Present Unipal’s value proposition clearly to businesses across different industries.
• Negotiate partnership terms and student offers that create mutual value.
• Manage the partner onboarding process and ensure a smooth start to the partnership.
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date partner information within the CRM system.
• Collaborate with internal teams to support partnership growth and alignment.
• Stay informed about market trends and identify new partnership opportunities.

+ Requirements

• Experience in sales, partnerships, or business development, preferably within the Bahrain or GCC market.
• Strong communication and negotiation skills in Arabic and English.
• Confident, outgoing personality with the ability to build rapport with different types of businesses.
• Comfortable working with tools such as Google Sheets, Word, and CRM systems.
• A relationship-focused mindset rather than purely transactional sales.
• Self-motivated, organized, and able to work independently and as part of a team.

We are excited to welcome a dynamic and driven Partnerships & Business Development Executive (Sales) to help strengthen Unipal’s partnerships and expand our impact across the student community.
