Your primary focus will be to act as the main liaison to secure timely permits and clearances, mitigate risks of delay, and manage the relationship with the Client. You will act as the crucial communication link for the MBS Project in Riyadh, safeguarding the project timeline and protecting the Consulting firm’s reputation by ensuring consistent and accurate communication.

Responsibilities :

  • Communication Strategy : Develop and execute a comprehensive communication plan tailored for diverse internal and external project stakeholders (e.g., local authorities, utility providers, government entities, and Client executives).
  • Permit and Approval Expediting : Act as the main liaison with key Riyadh municipal and governmental entities to secure timely permits, licenses, and clearances necessary for construction phases, mitigating risks of delay.
  • Client Interface : Manage the relationship with the Client, preparing and delivering executive-level presentations and reports that translate complex technical, cost, and schedule status updates into clear, actionable business insights.
  • Risk and Conflict Management : Proactively identify potential areas of conflict, misalignment, or communication breakdown between the international design / CSC team and local standards / protocols, and lead mediation efforts.
  • Documentation Oversight : Prepare monthly reports and submit to balady portal including any other required reports by the authorities.
  • Public and Media Relations (as required) : Coordinate with the Client’s corporate communications department regarding any necessary public outreach or media inquiries, ensuring alignment on messaging and project progress disclosure.

  • Experience : A minimum of 8-10 years of progressive experience is typically required, with at least 3-5 years dedicated specifically to stakeholder management, communications or public relations on large-scale infrastructure or construction projects (e.g., mega-projects, major public venues, or complex commercial developments).
  • Sector Knowledge : Demonstrated experience working on complex projects within the Saudi Arabian market is crucial, preferably with exposure to government / PIF (Public Investment Fund) entities.
  • Language Proficiency : Fluency in both written and spoken English and Arabic is mandatory. This is critical for drafting formal correspondence, facilitating meetings, and translating technical details accurately between international teams and local authorities.

  • Governmental Liaison : Proven ability to manage relationships with key regulatory and municipal authorities in Riyadh (e.g., Arriyadh Development Authority, Civil Defense, Ministry of Sports) to expedite approvals, permits, and clearances.
  • Project Documentation : Expertise in managing and tracking large volumes of correspondence, official notices (RFIs, NCRs), and formal communication logs (e.g., Aconex, Primavera Unifier).
  • Change Management : Ability to communicate the impact of technical design changes, budgetary adjustments, or schedule deviations clearly and concisely to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Key Competencies and Responsibilities

    The Stakeholder Manager acts as the communication link, ensuring alignment between the Consultant’s technical team and all external influences.

  • Stakeholder Mapping & Strategy : Develop and maintain a comprehensive stakeholder engagement plan. Identify, analyze, and prioritize all relevant internal and external parties (Client leadership, government, local community, media, design teams, subcontractors).
  • Conflict Resolution : Proactively anticipate potential conflicts and communication bottlenecks (e.g., cultural misunderstandings, conflicting priorities) and facilitate resolution to protect the project timeline.
  • Reporting & Communication : Prepare and deliver high-level, executive reports (weekly, monthly) to the Client, distilling complex technical progress and commercial issues into clear summaries for senior leadership review.
  • Reputation Management : Protect the reputation of the Consulting firm and the Client by ensuring consistent, accurate, and professional communication across all platforms.
  • Meeting Facilitation : Organize, lead, and document formal review meetings, ensuring decisions and action items are clearly recorded and disseminated to relevant parties.
