To meet the growing demand for AWS Training across various sectors in the United Arab Emirates, we are seeking exceptionally talented, bright, and motivated individuals. 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.

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.

To succeed in this position, you must be a self-starter who is prepared to Think Big and Dive Deep. 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.

  7. Represent and promote AWS Training & Certification at industry and company events, evangelizing its value and impact.
  8. Manage and engage with strategic, cross-functional teams within AWS to drive key initiatives across various workstreams and ensure successful collaboration on training-related programs.

A day in the life
Your day focuses on understanding customer cloud workforce transformation goals and crafting solutions to drive their success. You'll collaborate with executives to align training strategies with business objectives and work with technical teams to address skill gaps. By partnering with account managers, marketing teams, and AWS partners, you'll deliver scalable, customized training programs.

Key activities include analyzing performance metrics, refining strategies, and providing updates to leadership. Whether leading workshops or representing AWS at industry events, your passion for enabling customer success and advancing cloud adoption across the UAE will be at the forefront of your work.
