Role Details
About the Opportunity
We are retained by Saudi Arabia’s number one passenger car dealer group, which is seeking to appoint an exceptional Managing Director to lead its multi-brand automotive marketplace and retail business.
This is a significant opportunity to shape a business at an important stage of its development. Built on strong digital foundations, the business is expanding into a national network of premium, multi-brand retail outlets, bringing together digital commerce, physical retail, home delivery and the wider Group network within one seamless customer journey.
The Role
The Managing Director will have full responsibility for strategy, growth, P&L and operating performance. The mandate is clear: build a profitable, scalable business that increases demand, improves conversion, accelerates inventory turn and establishes a leading position in modern automotive retail.
You will lead the national expansion of the retail network, develop the new and pre-owned vehicle businesses, increase finance penetration and create a customer experience that is simple, transparent and compelling.
About You
You will be an accomplished automotive leader with substantial retail experience, strong commercial judgement and a proven understanding of the drivers of profitability across volume, margin, inventory, finance, used vehicles and customer acquisition.
You will be equally comfortable discussing a P&L with the Board, analysing a sales funnel, walking a showroom or identifying how technology can remove friction from the customer journey.
You will bring genuine curiosity about data and Artificial Intelligence, with a practical understanding of how they can improve commercial performance. Above all, you will be an assured people leader who builds trust, sets clear expectations, develops strong teams and creates accountability.
What Success Looks Like
Success will mean establishing the business as Saudi Arabia’s trusted multi-brand destination for modern automotive retail, combining the convenience and intelligence of digital commerce with the confidence, hospitality and emotion of outstanding physical retail.
The outcome will be a business delivering stronger conversion, faster stock rotation, higher used-car and finance penetration, greater customer retention and sustainable, profitable growth.
What’s on Offer
A substantial executive package, including attractive performance incentives and benefits, reflecting the scale and importance of the opportunity.
