Why Keyrus, Why Now!
Keyrus is an international group of 2,800 consultants and experts across 28 countries, built on a single conviction: AI does not transform businesses. Architected intelligence does. For more than 30 years, we have been building the data foundations that make intelligent systems work - designing the Operating System of the intelligent enterprise, where intelligence is embedded into business processes to create sustainable value: we operationalize intelligence.
Saudi Arabia is a strategic growth market for Keyrus. As we establish our presence in the Kingdom, you will help shape our commercial approach from the beginning, working directly with regional leadership and connecting local organizations with our global capabilities in data, AI, and digital consulting.
This is not a role where you inherit a finished playbook. It is an opportunity to build one: opening relationships, identifying where architected intelligence can create measurable value, and helping create the foundations for a long-term Keyrus business in KSA.
Technology amplifies. Keyrus culture differentiates. Entrepreneurial discipline connects the two.
Eligibility requirement
Due to applicable local employment and company-establishment requirements, this position is currently reserved for Saudi nationals.
