The Opportunity: Director - Delivery

Qiddiya is seeking a Director - Delivery to take full developer-side accountability for the end-to-end project delivery of large-scale hospitality developments.

  • Oversee coordination across design, engineering, construction, procurement, and operator teams for seamless execution and timely issue resolution.
  • Act as the primary interface with hotel operators and brand representatives, ensuring operator requirements are embedded, validated, and fully compliant with brand standards and operational expectations.
  • Define and lead contracting and procurement strategies, including work packaging (core & shell, fit-out, FF&E, OS&E), tendering, contractor selection, and contract award.

  • Ensure compliance with all safety, quality, and regulatory requirements, with a particular focus on hospitality-specific standards and approvals.
  • Hold full accountability for cost, cash flow, and commercial performance, including budgeting, forecasting, change management, claims resolution, and final account close-out.
  • Lead project close-out, testing and commissioning, authority approvals, and handover to operations, ensuring hospitality assets are fully ready for occupancy and long-term operation.
  • Lead integration of pre-opening activities with operators, ensuring a seamless transition from construction completion to operational launch, including soft opening readiness and guest experience validation.
  • Prepare comprehensive project reports and present updates to senior management and stakeholders.
  • Promote innovation, sustainability, and best practices in hospitality delivery, aligned with Qiddiya's vision.

Candidate Requirements

  • A minimum of 10 years of experience in project or construction management, with a strong focus on large-scale hospitality developments.
