Legal Director, Professional Services, Riyadh

Legal Director, Professional Services, Riyadh

It’s common knowledge that Saudi’s economy is growing and diversifying at the moment, but what if you could join a company at the heart of supporting that ambition?

Our client is a global leader in professional services, supporting Saudi government services across a wide variety of projects covering employment, training, healthcare and social governance.

Currently without a dedicated on the ground lawyer, this will be their first hire in KSA.

There are some key criteria to take into consideration:

• It’s essential that you have fluent, business level Arabic.
• As a Director level position, you’ll likely need at least 10+ years of post qualified experience as a lawyer.
• The legal skill set is general corporate and commercial.
• Additional experience across compliance, employment and regulatory is helpful.
• A good understanding of the GCC market and applying law.
• Saudi candidates are very much encouraged to apply, but not specifically required for the position.
• It will be based in Riyadh.

This is an extremely good opportunity for an ambitious lawyer who wants to join a multinational standard environment, with deep KSA expertise, and be well rewarded for your efforts.
