About the Role


We're making cities safer, smarter, and more connected. And we're doing it at
a global scale - energizing local economies and bringing opportunity to
millions of people around the world.
Uber's positive impact is tangible in the communities we operate in, and that
drives us to keep moving forward.
The General Manager at Uber is one of the most fast-paced positions Uber has
to offer; it requires an outstanding combination of talent, courage, and
leadership. As the leader of KSA, you will be responsible for the development
and balanced growth of our business and people.
You'll also be responsible for operational excellence and maintaining and
continuously improving 'Uber' quality throughout the Rider's experience,
customer support, local marketing, supply chain management, and service
quality management.
This role requires excellent collaboration across different functional and
specialized teams and can bridge the gap with the city, Regional, and HQ
teams. We need leaders that are innovators and can build, mentor, and
encourage strong teams to reach their potential. We believe in solving local
problems with local solutions, so understanding your market and delivering
custom messages is important.
It's the intersection of the analytical with the creative that makes the Uber
GM a difficult job to fill and the impact on our people and our business that
makes it such a phenomenal job to have!


What you will do:



  • Be the face of Uber in KSA. Act as the leading force for one of our biggest markets - develop and champion the strategy, and mobilize resources to implement the strategy

  • Lead local regulatory concerns and local politics in partnership with our Policy, Legal, and Communications teams

  • Represent Uber at local events and with local PR

  • Collaborate with marketing teams to initiate creative local strategies and user growth campaigns

  • Lead deployment and quality of supply chain (i.e. Uber's driver partners)

  • Communicate product/process needs to HQ, work with product/engineering to deliver on them

  • Work with Central Ops and other GMs to help scale our other cities through developing and sharing conventions

  • Evaluate opportunities for further expansion in Saudi (cities, products)

  • Work with Business Development to identify and help support relevant and value-creating strategic partnerships and alliances for each of your markets

  • Continue to grow and build upon today to drive a sustainable business for tomorrow

  • Champion our culture and employee brand


What you will need:



  • Min of ‎10 years of experience within a Strategy / Operations / Commercial / General Management role

  • Fluency in Arabic and English

  • Experience with establishing, maintaining, and leveraging C-level relationships at partner companies

  • Ability to fuse business, strategy, finance, and legal concepts to lead complex, multi-faceted deals

  • Excellent verbal and written communications skills are a must, as well as leadership skills

  • Demonstrated ability to work effectively across internal and external organizations


At Uber, we reimagine the way the world moves for the better. The idea was
born on a snowy night in Paris in ‎2008, and ever since then, our DNA of
reimagination and reinvention carries on. We 've grown into a global platform
moving people and things in ever-expanding ways, taking on big problems to
help drivers, riders, delivery partners, and eaters make movement happen at
the push of a button for everyone, everywhere.


We welcome people from all backgrounds who seek the opportunity to help build
a future where everyone and everything can move independently. If you have the
curiosity, passion, and collaborative spirit, work with us, and let's move the
world forward, together.

qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard
