About Us

We are Makan, a Saudi company on a mission to transform how interior projects are designed, built, and delivered.

Our vision is to digitize the entire turnkey interior experience — merging creativity, technology, and precision to bring projects to life with speed and excellence.

From concept to completion, we deliver fully integrated design, furniture, and fit-out solutions, making the entire process seamless, transparent, and intelligently managed.

We are not just participating in the market — we’re building the foundation to become its leader.

Join us as we pave the way for the future of digital, efficient, and iconic interiors.


 What You’ll Do



  • Identify and pursue new business opportunities across design, furniture, and fit-out sectors to drive Makan’s growth.
  • Develop and execute outreach strategies to engage potential clients, developers, contractors, and key decision-makers.
  • Build and maintain strong partnerships with clients, vendors, and industry networks that support long-term success.
  • Prepare and manage proposals, quotations, and tenders with design and technical teams, ensuring accuracy and alignment with client needs.
  • Lead negotiations and close profitable contracts that meet company targets while maintaining exceptional client satisfaction.
  • Collaborate closely with design and execution teams to define scope, pricing, and deliverables for each project.
  • Stay ahead of market trends and competitors to identify new opportunities and strengthen Makan’s position in the market.
  • Represent Makan with professionalism and confidence in every meeting, event, and client interaction.



Ideal Candidate:

  • A proven track record in business development or sales within the interior design, fit-out, or construction industry.
  • A strong network of clients, developers, and vendors across Saudi Arabia or the GCC — and the skill to turn connections into deals.
  • The ability to translate design and technical concepts into clear, compelling, and profitable commercial proposals.
  • Exceptional communication, presentation, and negotiation skills with executive-level clients — in Arabic and English.
  • A solid understanding of interior project lifecycles, from concept to completion, ensuring precision at every stage.
  • A high sense of ownership, accountability, and follow-through — you never drop the ball.
  • A degree in Business, Architecture, Interior Design, or Engineering — or equivalent real-world expertise.
  • Strong knowledge of Saudi market dynamics, procurement processes, and government project frameworks.
  • A talent for brand storytelling — presenting ideas and spaces that inspire confidence and imagination.
  • Experience thriving in fast-growth or startup environments, where speed, adaptability, and excellence are non-negotiable.


What Success Looks Like

You build a strong pipeline. You close iconic deals.

You turn clients into believers — and first meetings into lifelong partnerships.

You make growth look effortless because you love the game.
