Overview

Tahaluf is rewriting the events playbook. Its purpose is transformational, its DNA digital, and its ambition unprecedented. Over the next 12 months Tahaluf will scale to further increase its lead as the largest B2B Live and On Demand Events organiser in Saudi Arabia by SQM, Attendance, Colleagues and Revenue. Tahaluf partners with Gov and Non Government Organisations at the apex of Saudi’s B2B and B2C large scale events scene and works with global brands. Be part of something BIG. Tahaluf is building on the success of LEAP and Black Hat MEA, bringing iconic Informa brands to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Be part of an ambitious and highly committed team committed to pushing boundaries and disrupting the status quo. Be ready to be thrown in at the deep end, taking on large-scale projects from day one, under the guidance of a supportive leadership team who will encourage your personal development and offer you new opportunities.

The Marketing Manager Procurement will be responsible for owning Tahaluf’s marketing and media services procurement category, covering flagship events such as LEAP, Cityscape Global, Black Hat MEA, and Money20 / 20 Middle East. The role reports directly into the Head of Procurement for Tahaluf, with dotted-line reporting into both the Group Marketing Procurement Director (UK) and the Vice President of Marketing for Tahaluf. This structure ensures the role delivers maximum value at a regional level (supporting Tahaluf’s marketing priorities), while also leveraging Informa’s global MSAs and consolidated spend to drive efficiency and consistency across the wider group.

Above all, we are seeking someone from a marketing background — ideally with hands-on experience in marketing management, media planning, or digital — who understands the industry cost structures. The procurement part of the role is important, but the ability to challenge and validate marketing costs (particularly in media buying, production, and digital) is the critical success factor.
