Development Director – Sports
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
An exceptional opportunity has arisen to join a pioneering organisation leading one of the Kingdom’s most ambitious urban development programmes. As Development Director with a focus on sports assets, you will play a central role in shaping large-scale assets designed to promote active lifestyles, world-class sporting facilities, and vibrant community spaces.
The role will focus on masterplanning and development strategy across a wide-reaching programme that integrates sports, leisure, public realm, and mixed-use components. You will lead design partners, stakeholders, and delivery teams to bring forward a portfolio of landmark projects that will redefine how residents and visitors experience the city.
Candidates should bring extensive experience in guiding major developments through the masterplanning and early design phases. A background in sports, leisure, or urban regeneration projects would be valuable, though the key requirement is proven expertise in delivering complex, high-value projects with multiple stakeholders.
This is a rare opportunity to help shape one of the world’s most innovative urban sports initiatives, contributing to the long-term transformation of Riyadh’s development landscape.
If you are an accomplished development leader seeking a new challenge in one of the most dynamic markets globally, we would welcome a confidential discussion.
