<div><h3 class="jobSectionHeader">1. About Front End</h3>
Front End Limited Company is a Saudi-headquartered industrial solutions group, named &quot;Innovator of the Year&quot; at the Oil &amp; Gas Middle East 2025 Awards and 100% aligned with Saudi Vision 2030, Front End operates across eight integrated verticals:<ul><li>
Energy &mdash; EPC &amp; project delivery, valves, actuators &amp; testing, subsurface</li><li>
Industrial Facilities &mdash; EPC &amp; turnkey services, valves &amp; safety systems, facility O&amp;M</li><li>
Geoscience &mdash; subsurface &amp; seismic, site &amp; geotechnical studies, airborne &amp; UAV surveys</li><li>
Space &mdash; satellite data &amp; analytics, monitoring &amp; insights, weather &amp; resilience</li><li>

This role sits within Front End's Environmental &amp; Sustainability initiatives, an extension of the Industrial Facilities vertical, focused on delivering circular-economy and decarbonisation infrastructure for the Kingdom. While the successful candidate will be dedicated to the pyrolysis biochar project, they will be part of a multidisciplinary organisation that blends industrial execution capability with advanced technology, geoscience, and AI &mdash; giving the project access to capabilities that few peer organisations can match.<h3 class="jobSectionHeader">
2. Role Purpose</h3>
The Project Manager will lead the end-to-end delivery of the BST-06 MAX pyrolysis biochar plant at the SBF site in Riyadh &mdash; a flagship environmental and sustainability initiative converting organic waste streams into biochar and renewable syngas in support of KSA Vision 2030 circular-economy and net-zero targets.
Reporting to the Front End Projects Director, the Project Manager is accountable for the safe, on-time, on-budget, and quality-compliant execution of the project from mobilisation through commissioning and operational handover (target commissioning: June 2026).

Generate renewable syngas as a process energy source</li><li>
