**Workplace:** on_site

## Description

We are seeking a highly capable PMO Manager to lead the project management office for a real estate developer in Riyadh.

The PMO Manager will oversee the full development delivery cycle: feasibility support, design management, consultant and contractor coordination, cost and schedule control, procurement tracking, risk management, project reporting, handover, and close-out.

### Key Responsibilities

-   Establish and manage PMO governance, reporting standards, project controls, templates, and approval workflows across the development portfolio.
-   Monitor projects from design stage through construction, handover, and final close-out on behalf of the developer.
-   Prepare executive dashboards and weekly/monthly reports covering project progress, cost, cash flow, risks, design status, procurement, variations, sales readiness, and key decisions required.
-   Verify actual site progress through regular site inspections and independent validation, rather than relying solely on contractor reports.
-   Control approved budgets, BOQs, commitments, variations, forecasts, and cost-to-complete for each project.
-   Track master schedules, identify delays early, assess recovery plans, and escalate critical risks to management.
-   Lead coordination between development, design, finance, procurement, sales, legal, consultants, contractors, and government-related stakeholders.
-   Review design deliverables, consultant outputs, BOQs, specifications, tender packages, and construction documentation for completeness before execution.
-   Monitor consultant and contractor performance against their contractual scope, deliverables, milestones, quality requirements, and approved budgets.
-   Maintain project risk registers, issue logs, decision trackers, action plans, and mitigation measures.
-   Support tender evaluations, consultant and contractor appointments, variation reviews, claims assessments, and project close-out.
-   Ensure projects are delivered in line with approved product positioning, financial objectives, delivery timelines, and quality standards.
-   Identify operational gaps and implement practical improvements to strengthen accountability, reporting quality, and delivery performance.

-   Proven experience in managing consultants, contractors, design coordination, budgets, BOQs, procurement, variations, project schedules, and handover.
-   Strong understanding of the full real estate development lifecycle, not only construction execution.
-   Proficiency in Primavera P6 or Microsoft Project, advanced Excel, PowerPoint, and reporting/dashboard tools.
-   Strong commercial awareness, including budget monitoring, cash-flow tracking, cost forecasting, and variation control.
-   Experience establishing or working within PMO governance frameworks, including project controls, reporting standards, risk registers, issue logs, action trackers, and stage-gate processes.
-   Experience in project scheduling, critical-path analysis, recovery planning, progress measurement, and executive reporting.
-   Experience with tender evaluation, procurement planning, variation assessment, and contractor performance monitoring.
-   Business-fluent English.
-   Eligible to work in Saudi Arabia.

-   Able to conduct regular site visits across active development and construction projects in Riyadh.
-   Able to work in both office and construction-site environments.

### Preferred Qualifications

### What We Are Looking For

-   A developer-side PMO professional who understands the owner’s commercial, technical, and delivery priorities.
-   Someone who can challenge consultants and contractors constructively and protect the developer’s interests.
-   A hands-on manager with strong site awareness, disciplined reporting, and the ability to identify issues before they become delays or cost overruns.
-   A leader who can create accountability across internal teams and external stakeholders.
