Jeddah, Makkah, Saudi Arabia
Over 25 years. SAR 2.2 billion in real estate portfolios delivered. Across KSA and the GCC, I have built, governed, and transformed some of the most complex development programs in the Kingdom, and I am just getting started. I am a Senior Projects Director and Business Development Executive, certified in Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) and Project Management Office leadership (PMO-CP, FIDIC, and MRICS Candidate). operating at the precise intersection where Saudi Arabia's real estate market is heading under Vision 2030: strategic execution, digital transformation, ESG integration, and governance-driven value creation. My career spans the full real estate development and construction lifecycle, from investment origination, land acquisition, and feasibility analysis through master planning, financial structuring, procurement, construction delivery, and asset management. I have led multidisciplinary teams across residential, hospitality, mixed-use, and infrastructure programs for organizations including IKK Group, LADUN Investment Co., Nesma & Partners, and Saudi bin Laden Group, consistently delivering on time, within budget, and to board-level governance standards. What truly differentiates me is not execution depth alone, it is the rare convergence of engineering precision, strategic business development, formal governance mastery, and digital transformation capability I bring to every engagement. I champion BIM implementation, Prop Tech adoption, ESG frameworks, and data-driven decision-making at executive level. I am also the author of two published executive works: "Smart Real Estate Development in the Era of Governance, Sustainability, and Digital Transformation". a defining reference for MENA real estate professionals navigating Vision 2030. "From Engineer to CEO": a career roadmap for aspiring executive leaders in construction and real estate. Currently I have an MBA from (Hallford University, 2024) and pursuing DBA from (IBAS University). I am actively positioning for leadership executive roles in Saudi Arabia's real estate and construction sector, driven by an unwavering commitment to governance integrity, sustainable value creation, and transformational leadership.
