Support the CEO in managing priorities, deadlines, commitments, and high-level business matters.

Use AI tools, ERP systems, productivity tools, and digital platforms to improve efficiency, reporting, and task management.

Prepare periodic reports on pending tasks, project progress, risks, priorities, and unresolved matters.

Maintain a high level of confidentiality, professionalism, accuracy, and discretion at all times.

The candidate must currently reside in Saudi Arabia.

The candidate must be able and willing to travel within Saudi Arabia when required for company-related business.

Excellent written communication skills in both Arabic and English are required.

Strong ability to draft formal letters, business correspondence, reports, and official communications is required.

The candidate must have strong organizational, follow-up, multitasking, and problem-solving skills.

The right candidate will be able to anticipate needs, follow up without being reminded, organize priorities, solve problems before they escalate, communicate clearly, and represent the CEO and the company with professionalism.

This role requires ownership, speed, accuracy, confidentiality, and strong business judgment.

Candidates must submit an updated CV and answer the screening questions clearly.
