Board and Governance
Governance, Applied
I serve boards as a Certified Board Director (GCC Board Directors Institute) with operator credentials: I led MHG Trading from a SAR 94 million private establishment to a TASI listed public company, carrying the IPO from governance readiness through due diligence, prospectus, and roadshow to the September 2025 listing. My board value sits at the intersection of fiduciary oversight and hands-on transformation experience across Saudi Arabia, the GCC, and Europe.
Where I Add Board Value
Four areas, each grounded in delivered outcomes.
IPO & Listing Readiness
End to end experience: governance structuring, advisor selection, financial and legal due diligence, prospectus, roadshow, and TASI main market listing.
Governance & Fiduciary Oversight
Certificate in Board Directorship from the GCC Board Directors Institute, with governance frameworks built in practice during a real listing, not only in theory.
Strategy & Scale Oversight
Revenue grown 4X and the team expanded from 124 to more than 750 people as Group Deputy CEO, with operations across four countries.
Digital & AI Transformation
ERP and AI adoption programs led at group level, giving boards informed oversight of technology risk and opportunity.
