- Understand operational realities of offshore projects, downtime risks, mobilization, compliance, and execution planning
- Work closely with marine operations and technical teams to ensure realistic pricing and delivery capability
Client & Market Engagement
- Support strategic client positioning and pre-tender engagement
- Participate in clarification meetings, negotiations, and commercial discussions
- Build strong relationships with vendors, subcontractors, OEMs, and partners
- Monitor market trends, pricing benchmarks, and competitor positioning
What We're Looking For
Experience
- 7+ years in bidding, estimation, tendering, or commercial management
- Strong background in:
- Energy / Oil & Gas
- Offshore & Marine
- EPC or industrial projects
- Experience with Saudi Aramco, SABIC, or major international and regional EPCs is highly preferred
Technical & Commercial Skills
- Strong commercial acumen and analytical mindset
- Experience preparing complex technical and commercial proposals
- Ability to manage multiple high-pressure deadlines simultaneously
- Understanding of offshore operations, vessel commercial structures, and industrial project costing
- Strong Excel and estimation modeling capabilities
Mindset
We are looking for people who are:
- Fast
- Accountable
- Entrepreneurial
- Detail-oriented
- Highly disciplined
- Solution-driven
- Comfortable operating in high-growth, high-performance environments
If you need constant follow-up to deliver, this role is not for you.
If you thrive under pressure and love winning major projects, you will fit perfectly here.
Why Join Front End?
At Front End, you will work on some of the region's most exciting opportunities across energy, offshore, autonomy, AI, industrial technology, and infrastructure.
You won't be another employee inside a slow corporate machine.
You will be part of a company built around:
- Agility

- Entrepreneurship
- Innovation
- Community
You will have direct exposure to leadership, strategic projects, and major regional opportunities that shape the future of industry and technology in Saudi Arabia.
