## Description

### About Qiddiya Residential

Qiddiya’s Residential Business Unit is creating new neighborhoods within one of Saudi Arabia’s most ambitious destination-led developments. The focus is not simply to build housing, but to shape high-quality, market-relevant communities that support a long-term residential vision.

Within that context, the Villas & Townhouses team is a key part of the product strategy. We are looking for a senior development leader who can help shape, challenge and drive the development of this portfolio from the front end; ensuring projects are commercially sound, well positioned and set up for successful delivery.

### Key responsibilities

-   Lead a portfolio of development projects from feasibility through delivery readiness
-   Define product strategy, unit mix, phasing and development briefs
-   Drive feasibility, business planning and commercial optimisation
-   Manage design, consultants, approvals and procurement strategy
-   Represent the business in key stakeholder discussions
-   Improve development processes across the portfolio

## Requirements

-   Strong client-side residential development experience
-   Proven capability across feasibility, product definition, design management and commercial decision-making
-   A true developer mindset, not just project management
-   Ability to balance product, design, cost, programme and profitability
-   Strong stakeholder management across consultants, authorities and senior leadership
-   Middle East experience preferred
-   Developer backgrounds preferred over pure consultancy, contractor or PMC
-   Relevant degree required; real estate or commercial qualifications are a plus
