About the Role

Saudi AVITO Information Technology Limited Company is seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead the on-site delivery of a major strategic project in Medina. This full-time, on-premise role requires a professional with 5-10 years of experience in project management, particularly within the aviation sector.

Project Delivery and Territory Management

Initially, the Project Manager will be responsible for the end-to-end on-site delivery of a significant project in Saudi Arabia, ensuring adherence to scope, schedule, budget, and quality objectives. This includes acting as the primary point of contact for local stakeholders, customers, partners, and vendors, and ensuring compliance with TIBAH Project Management Office (PMO) governance, standards, and reporting requirements. Proactive management of project risks, issues, dependencies, and change requests, along with coordination of local resources and regional teams, will be critical. Following the successful completion of this initial project, the role will expand to encompass the management and coordination of all ICT and ULV/ELV projects within the scope of the Medina airport expansion project. This will involve implementing and sustaining TIBAH-defined PMO governance and processes at a regional level, ensuring consistent application of project management methodology, and supporting portfolio planning and regional capacity management.

Governance and Collaboration

The Project Manager will operate under governance centrally defined by the TIBAH PMO, adhering to established standards for planning, execution, reporting, risk management, and project closure. Day-to-day project execution, local coordination, and stakeholder management will be handled by the local team and the Project Manager. Collaboration with the TIBAH PMO and Headquarter PMO is essential, including participation in PMO reviews, audits, and governance forums. Continuous improvement will be fostered by feeding lessons learned and regional insights back to the TIBAH PMO.
