General Manager (New Architecture Studio Opening)

Overview

General Manager (New Architecture Studio Opening)

FORM Careers has been exclusively engaged to appoint a General Manager for a globally recognised architecture firm establishing its KSA studio.

This is a confidential search for a key leadership role with a globally recognised architecture practice establishing in Saudi Arabia.

We are seeking a senior professional, ideally Arabic-speaking, to lead operations, guide regulatory processes, and represent the practice nationally. The successful candidate will be based in Riyadh, bringing credibility, influence, and a substantial "black book" of trusted industry contacts to unlock opportunities and drive growth from day one. While an architectural background is preferred, we are equally open to senior professionals with strong business development experience in the construction consultancy sector, or those moving from client-side roles back into consultancy. Our focus is on securing the right person with the relationships, insight, and impact to establish and grow the studio, and we welcome your expression of interest.

Responsibilities

• Build strong client relationships and drive business development.
• Mentor team and represent the practice with cultural awareness.
• Lead Saudi studio operations and project delivery.
• Oversee compliance, finance, and reporting.
