Associate Director

Qiddiya Investment Company (QIC), wholly owned by the Public Investment Fund, is developing Qiddiya — a giga-project and Saudi Arabia's future capital of entertainment, sports and culture. The Investments team leads direct investments, real assets, strategic partnerships, and monetization and co-investment opportunities, and is building out QIC's Investment Management function.

Two core mandates:
- Work with QIC's internal departments to identify assets and opportunities that can be taken to market, build the financial model, equity story and investor collateral, and execute capital raising with institutional investors and family offices, regionally and globally.

- Structure and execute joint ventures, partnerships and selective investments or acquisitions in companies and operators that strengthen the Qiddiya ecosystem.

Monetization 
• Work closely with Development, Asset Management, Finance, Strategy and sector teams to identify and screen assets and opportunities suitable for third-party capital.
• Assess monetization readiness — business plan, cash-flow profile, structure, governance and legal/regulatory considerations — and define the path to market.
• Build investor-grade financial models, valuation and returns analysis.
• Develop the equity story and investment thesis for each opportunity.
• Prepare external collateral: teasers, information memoranda, investor presentations, data rooms and investor Q&A.
• Recommend and design transaction structures, such as asset-level stake sales, co-investment, platform JVs, fund vehicles, sale-and-leaseback and listed vehicles.

• Coordinate external advisers (investment banks, legal, financial, tax and technical).
• Build and maintain relationships and a pipeline across sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, insurers, asset managers, PE/infrastructure/real estate funds and family offices.

Strategic investments

• Build business cases, valuations and deal structures that balance strategic value with financial returns.
• Lead due diligence and negotiate term sheets, shareholder agreements and JV agreements alongside Legal.
• Support post-transaction governance, partner management and value creation.
