About the Role

Our client is seeking a Strategic Business Partner / Strategic Operations Manager to support the CEO and senior leadership team with strategic planning, business performance tracking, and high-impact project execution.

This is a CEO Office-level role for a fast-growing digital platform business expanding across Saudi Arabia and the wider Middle East. The successful candidate will work closely with leadership to turn strategic decisions into clear execution plans, monitor business performance, coordinate cross-functional priorities, and support market expansion initiatives.

This is not a routine operations role. It requires strong strategic thinking, structured problem-solving, business analysis, executive communication, and hands-on project delivery.

Key Responsibilities

• Drive strategic projects across growth, commercialisation, operations, market expansion, and organisational priorities.
• Support the CEO Office with strategic planning, business reviews, market research, competitor analysis, and industry benchmarking.
• Translate executive decisions into clear action plans, ownership structures, timelines, and measurable outcomes.
• Monitor business KPIs, operational performance, and execution progress across key initiatives.
• Identify operational gaps, business bottlenecks, and performance improvement opportunities.
• Coordinate with cross-functional teams to ensure strategic initiatives are delivered on time and to standard.
• Prepare structured business analysis, insights, reports, and recommendations for senior leadership.
• Manage project cadence, milestone tracking, follow-ups, post-project reviews, and continuous improvement actions.
• Support Saudi and Middle East market expansion priorities through research, execution planning, and stakeholder alignment.

Candidate Requirements

• 3–5 years’ relevant experience in strategy, consulting, CEO Office, Founder’s Office, PMO, Strategic Business Partner, or Strategic Operations roles.
• Experience from a top-tier consulting firm or elite boutique consulting firm is strongly preferred.
• Prior experience in technology, internet platforms, e-commerce, social media, live streaming, gaming, digital entertainment, or consumer technology is an advantage.
• Strong structured thinking, business analysis, project management, and problem-solving ability.
• Able to work directly with CEOs, founders, senior executives, and cross-functional stakeholders.
• Excellent executive-level English communication skills, both written and verbal.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, multicultural Saudi / Middle East business environment.
• Bachelor’s degree required; exceptional hands-on strategic experience may be considered.

Benefits & Compensation

• Competitive tax-free salary of SAR 30,000 – 50,000 per month.
• Social insurance and employment benefits as per Saudi labour regulations.
• Direct exposure to the CEO and senior leadership team.
• Opportunity to join a fast-growing digital platform business with strong Middle East expansion plans.
• High-impact role covering strategy, performance, execution, and market growth.
