Fractional COO Opportunity

A leading Saudi group is seeking a Saudi national to support its Board and Chairman's Office in a highly visible, execution-focused role.

This is not a ceremonial secretary position.

This role exists to ensure decisions move, actions close, and leadership stays aligned.

What You'll Actually Do

Attend Board and Committee meetings and capture discussions clearly

Produce concise executive summaries and structured meeting minutes

Convert discussions into clear action points (owner, deadline, status)

Follow up with senior executives to ensure closure

Prepare agendas, meeting packs, and post-meeting follow-ups

Act as a professional coordination point between Board members and management

Who This Role Is For

This role is ideal for someone who is:

Saudi national, fluent in Arabic & English

Early to mid-career (typically 2-6 years experience)

Sharp, presentable, and comfortable around senior leadership

Strong at listening, summarizing, and following through

Naturally organized, proactive, and calm under pressure

Backgrounds that often fit well:

Executive Office / Chairman's Office

Strategy, PMO, or CEO Office roles

High-performing Executive Assistants who outgrew admin work

Governance, consulting, or fast-paced corporate environments

Requirements

What Will Not Be a Fit

To save everyone time, this role is not suitable for:

Pure admin or receptionist profiles

Legal-only profiles with no execution exposure

Candidates uncomfortable following up with senior leaders

CVs focused only on documentation with no ownership or accountability

Key Skills We'll Look For

Clear writing and summarization (Arabic & English)

Ability to turn conversations into action

Strong follow-up discipline

Professional presence and discretion

Comfort working in confidential, high-trust environments

Why This Role Matters

You will sit close to decision-making, gain exposure to leadership thinking, and build a strong foundation in governance, execution, and executive operations.

This role rewards clarity, ownership, and maturity ... not years on paper.
