Role Summary We're looking for an exceptional Executive Administrator to serve as the right-hand support to our leadership team (including the CEO) while owning critical operational functions. You'll manage all contracts administration, lead customer support operations, handle key administrative workflows, and ensure seamless day-to-day execution. This is far more than a traditional admin role—it's a strategic position where your efficiency, attention to detail, and problem-solving directly fuel business growth in Saudi Arabia's exciting event tech landscape. You'll work closely with the CEO, product, sales, and support teams in a high-energy, results-driven culture.

Qualifications & Experience — 5+ years of experience in executive administration, contracts management, customer support operations, or a similar multifaceted role—ideally in tech/SaaS, events, or professional services. — Strong expertise in contract administration (reviewing terms, risk identification, negotiation basics) and familiarity with Saudi commercial laws/regulations a significant advantage. — Proven ability to lead or scale customer support functions in a B2B environment, with experience using tools like Zendesk, Intercom, Freshdesk, or similar. — Exceptional organizational and multitasking skills; highly detail-oriented with a proactive, solutions-focused mindset. — Proficiency in Microsoft Office/Google Workspace, CRM systems (e.g., HubSpot/Salesforce), and contract management tools (e.g., DocuSign, PandaDoc). — Fluency in English and Arabic (spoken and written) is essential for client and internal communications. — Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Law, or a related field preferred. — Experience in a startup or high-growth tech company is a plus, bonus if you've supported founders/CEOs directly. Compensation & Benefits We offer a competitive market-rate package aligned with Saudi Arabia's tech and professional services sector. Base salary (depends on experience and expertise), plus performance bonuses. If you're a versatile, high-caliber professional ready to own critical operations and contribute directly to our mission of revolutionizing events in Saudi Arabia, we'd love to hear from you.
