If you have a passion for learning and can communicate highly technical concepts to audiences at different stages in their AWS journey, we'd like to speak with you.
As cloud technologies transform industries, the need for skilled professionals is growing rapidly. At AWS Training and Certification (T&C), we are committed to revolutionizing how people develop cloud skills and advance their careers. Our mission is to empower a diverse community of learners—today's innovators and tomorrow's leaders—with the tools to leverage the AWS Cloud. We create impactful training programs that drive innovation and success for businesses and individuals. By joining our fast-growing, dynamic team, you'll contribute to a culture of collaboration, curiosity, and customer focus while shaping the future of cloud technology in Saudi Arabia and beyond.
You will be accountable for the development of Training Services revenue within key industry segments, including government, public sector, and private sector businesses. You will create strategic plans for these segments, set sales enablement goals, develop strategies, and forecast AWS Training business opportunities. You will collaborate with field teams to build and maintain a pipeline of training opportunities and provide regular forecasts and business reviews to senior management.
This role will also entail managing complex strategic relationships that span multiple workstreams. You will engage with various stakeholders across different teams within AWS, including the Training & Certification (T&C) team, to drive successful collaborations and ensure that the training solutions provided align with the needs of both customers and the business. The ability to work cross-functionally, engage with senior stakeholders, and manage complex initiatives will be essential.

You will build and nurture relationships with sales and partner development teams, helping them drive training business. You will conduct sales enablement activities, educating internal teams on AWS Training offerings, how to position them with customers and partners, and keeping them informed on new programs, policies, and procedures.
You will work closely with customers to conduct training needs assessments and build detailed training plans and proposals to accelerate customer adoption of AWS Services. You will also build and maintain relationships with customers and partners to ensure flawless execution of training plans.

Your day revolves around understanding your customers' cloud workforce transformation goals and creating solutions to help them succeed. You'll work with executives to align training strategies with business objectives and collaborate with technical teams to address skill gaps.
By partnering with account managers, marketing teams, and AWS partners, you'll deliver scalable training programs tailored to customer needs. Regular activities include analyzing performance metrics, refining strategies, and presenting updates to leadership.
