Project Manager - Saudi Nationals

Core Accountability Statement

The Strategic Account Director is accountable for ensuring that:

• All contractual, technical, and strategic commitments to the partner are delivered to standard, on time, and at scale
• The Halal training platform evolves in alignment with partner objectives, regulatory requirements, and global deployment needs
• Classera's internal teams operate in lockstep toward a unified execution roadmap
• The partnership expands internationally in a structured, commercially viable, and reputationally sound manner
• Financial outcomes under the revenue-share model are accurately tracked, reported, and optimized

The role serves as the single point of accountability for the Saudi Halal Training Initiative across all dimensions—strategic, operational, technical, and commercial.

Key leadership responsibilities include:

• Acting as the primary owner of the partnership governance model, ensuring clarity in decision-making, escalation, and accountability
• Developing and maintaining a deep understanding of the partner's long-term vision, regulatory mandate, implementation roadmap, and success metrics
• Establishing trusted, high-credibility relationships with senior government stakeholders, including C-level sponsors, program leaders, and operational counterparts
• Leading structured governance forums such as quarterly business reviews, annual strategic planning cycles, and executive performance readouts
• Translating partner expectations into executable internal plans and ensuring alignment across Classera leadership

This role requires comfort operating at both strategic altitude and operational depth
, with the ability to shift seamlessly between executive dialogue and delivery detail.

The Strategic Account Director owns end-to-end accountability for all platform-related commitments made under the partnership agreement.

Overseeing includes:

• Platform customizations aligned to Halal training requirements, certification workflows, and regional compliance needs
• Feature enhancements required to support scalability, reporting, content localization, and institutional onboarding
• Technical integrations with partner systems, regulatory databases, or third-party platforms where applicable
• White-labeling, branding, and user experience adaptations aligned with government and cultural expectations

To execute this, the role works in close coordination with:

• Engineering teams to validate feasibility, timelines, and delivery sequencing
• Product management to ensure requirements are clearly defined, prioritized, and aligned with the broader roadmap
• PMO functions to track milestones, dependencies, risks, and delivery health

The role is expected to proactively identify delivery risks, capacity constraints, or scope creep and escape appropriately to executive leadership with solution-oriented recommendations.

Beyond delivery, the role plays a critical part in supporting the global expansion of the Halal training initiative.

Responsibilities include:

• Identifying priority Islamic and emerging markets where the Halal training platform can be deployed
• Collaborating with Classera's regional sales leaders, partnerships teams, and local representatives to position the solution effectively
• Supporting market entry strategies, pilot program launches, and executive-level engagements with prospective stakeholders
• Facilitating introductions and relationship development with ministries, regulators, NGOs, Islamic organizations, and private Halal institutions
• Contributing to proposal development, solution design, and commercial structuring for new markets

While not a quota-carrying sales role, this position requires a strong commercial mindset and the ability to support pipeline growth tied directly to the partnership.

One of the most critical success factors for this role is the ability to mobilize Classera's global organization toward a single, coherent execution plan.

This includes:

• Coordinating efforts across Product, Engineering, Customer Success, Support, PMO,…
