Senior Creative Lead

Full-time

Company Description

Tahaluf is rewriting the events playbook. Its purpose is transformational, its DNA digital, and its ambition unprecedented. Over the next 12 months, Tahaluf will scale to further increase its lead as the largest B2B Live and On Demand Events organiser in Saudi Arabia: by SQM, Attendance, Colleagues, and Revenue.

To scale at this pace requires impeccable local partners, and Tahaluf is proud to enjoy the support and partnership of several Gov and Non-Gov Organisations that are at the apex of Saudi’s B2B and B2C large scale events scene. In fact, our partners don’t just support the expansion of live events in the Kingdom; they’re also the partner of choice for heavyweights like Apple, Amazon, and AliBaba.

Be part of something BIG!

Building on the success of record-breaking tech events, which grew to be the world’s largest tech event globally in terms of attendee numbers in just its second edition, and award-winning cyber-security events, Tahaluf is bringing iconic Informa brands to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Be part of an ambitious and highly committed team, who aren’t afraid to push boundaries and disrupt the status quo. Be ready to be thrown in at the deep end, taking on large-scale projects from day one, under the guidance of a supportive leadership team who will encourage your personal development and offer you new opportunities.
