• Flight Supervision: Supervise local execution and VIP service quality for flights operated to/from the Kingdom, ensuring ground handling, FBO, catering, and other services are delivered flawlessly.

Candidate Profile

• Strong international commercial background in business aviation, private aviation, VIP charter, or airlines.
• Proven network and strong market knowledge in Saudi Arabia and the GCC, with existing relationships with family offices and VIP decision-makers.
• High degree of autonomy, entrepreneurial spirit, and ability to manage a small local corporate structure with sound financial discipline.
• Fluent English is required; Arabic language capability is strongly preferred.
