Role Purpose
The IT Business Partner Projects Manager is the bridge between technology and the business in the
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The role acts as the single point of technology engagement for sales, marketing,
development and corporate teams, translating business needs into well-scoped IT solutions, and leads the
delivery of technology projects and group digital initiatives from concept through to handover. The role also
provides white-glove technology support to senior leadership.
Key Responsibilities
Business Partnering
• Act as the technology business partner for sales, marketing, development and corporate teams,
building trusted relationships with functional heads and understanding their objectives, processes and
pain points.
• Translate business needs into clear IT requirements, solution options and business cases, working with
group IT, architects and vendors to shape the right solution.
• Maintain a demand pipeline for the Kingdom: capture, qualify and prioritise technology requests in line
with group strategy, budget and capacity.
• Champion adoption of existing platforms and identify opportunities to simplify, automate or
consolidate before introducing new tools.
• Communicate IT roadmaps, project status and service changes to business stakeholders in plain,
business-focused language.
Digital Initiatives Rollout
• Support the rollout of group digital initiatives — CRM, marketing technology, data platforms, and
workplace automation, acting as local delivery lead and change agent.
• Localise group solutions for requirements, including Arabic language needs, PDPL data residency
considerations and integration with local vendors and systems.
• Plan and execute change management: stakeholder engagement, communications, training, super-user
networks and adoption tracking.
• Gather structured feedback from users and channel enhancement requests back to group product and
platform owners.
Project Delivery
• Lead or support IT projects end-to-end: scoping, planning, budgeting, vendor selection, delivery,
testing, cutover and handover to operations.
• Produce and maintain project artefacts — charters, plans, RAID logs, status reports and steering
committee updates — to a consistent group standard.
• Manage vendors and system integrators through delivery: statements of work, milestones, acceptance
criteria and commercial performance.
• Coordinate user acceptance testing, data migration and go-live readiness with business and IT
operations teams.
• Ensure every project is handed over cleanly to support, with documentation, training and agreed
service levels in place.
