Executive Conflict Resolution : Serve as the final escalation authority to proactively and reactively resolve complex, high‑impact interface conflicts and integration issues that threaten the project's schedule, budget, or technical integrity.
Stakeholder & Authority Management : Establish and maintain high‑level, diplomatic relationships with all critical internal and external stakeholders, including NEOM's various sectors, utility providers, government regulatory bodies, and third‑party agencies to secure timely approvals and data exchange.
Program Integration Oversight : Provide strategic oversight of the entire project lifecycle, ensuring the successful integration of all technical disciplines (Civil, Structural, Architectural, MEP, Systems, Digital / Cognitive Tech, etc.) across multiple contract packages and construction phases.
Risk & Opportunity Management : Identify, analyze, and strategically mitigate interface‑related risks, while also capitalizing on opportunities for process optimization and schedule acceleration through improved coordination.
Team Leadership : Lead, mentor, and develop a dedicated Interface Management team, ensuring the consistent use of industry‑leading Interface Management Systems (IMS) and best practices for documentation, tracking, and closure of all interface points.
Required Qualifications and Experience
Minimum 25 years of progressive experience in Project or Program Management, with a significant focus on managing complex technical interfaces within large‑scale, multi‑contract infrastructure or city‑building megaprojects.
Proven experience in a Director‑level or equivalent senior leadership position on projects exceeding $10 Billion USD.
Bachelor's Degree in Engineering (Civil, Mechanical, or Electrical), Construction Management, or a related field. A Master's Degree is highly preferred.
Demonstrated expertise in navigating complex commercial and contractual frameworks (e.g., FIDIC, EPC) and resolving disputes related to scope demarcation and liability.
Exceptional executive‑level communication, negotiation, and diplomatic skills, with a proven ability to influence outcomes across diverse, multi‑cultural organizations.
