Hi E***d, Thanks for asking. For a Regional SFE Director covering Gulf & Iraq, the total annual compensation package typically falls in the USD 200K,240K range (base of USD 150K,180K plus a target bonus of around 25,30%). There is some flexibility within that band depending on your profile and proven track record. As for remote work, the role is headquartered in Dubai and will involve regular interaction with local teams and stakeholders across MENA. N***a supports a hybrid model, so you can expect to split your time between the office (approximately 2,3 days/week) and remote work. We’re certainly open to discussing any specific arrangements you may need. Looking forward to diving into more details on Thursday at 11:00,11:30 AM GST. Please let me know if you need anything else beforehand. Best regards, J***e HR Recruiter, StrategyBrain

Hi E***d, Great questions. 1. Compensation & Sign-On/Equity , We can certainly position you at the top of the USD 200,240K band given your 17+ years of SFE leadership. , In addition to base + bonus, N***a typically offers a one-time sign-on bonus (in the ~10,15% of base range) and participation in our long-term incentive plan (RSUs vesting over three years). Exact figures will be tailored once we get to the formal offer stage. 2. Office Days Flexibility , While the regional hub is in Dubai, the 2,3 days/week in-office requirement is designed around where you’re based. If you reside in another MENA hub, you can use your local N***a office. We’re committed to a hybrid model that balances collaboration with flexibility,so long as you maintain regular touchpoints with your team and key stakeholders, we can be pragmatic about which office days you choose. Looking forward to diving into details on Thursday at 11:00 AM GST. Let me know if you’d like to zero in on anything else beforehand. Best, J***e HR Recruiter, StrategyBrain

Hi E***d, Glad to dig into those details. For a Regional SFE Director, N***a typically grants RSUs equal to roughly 15,20% of your base salary, vesting over three years on a one-third-per-year schedule. On a USD 150,180K base, that would translate to approximately USD 22K,36K in RSU value at grant. As for the sign-on bonus, the 10,15% range is our standard band, but there is room to flex,especially for top-tier candidates with your track record. We’ve seen offers land closer to 17% in exceptional cases. We’ll dial in the exact figures once we reach the formal offer stage, but I hope this gives you a clear ballpark. Let me know if you’d like to discuss further or if you’re comfortable moving ahead toward a formal proposal. Best, J***e HR Recruiter, StrategyBrain
