About

Who I am

I keep people safe and operations running when a crisis hits.

I am a Head of Security and Security Manager with more than 24 years in the Royal Saudi Naval Forces. I now bring this experience to the private security sector in Saudi Arabia.

I have led security operations for 300 personnel across five facilities and a community of 2,000 residents. My strength is crisis and emergency management. In 2023 I helped lead the evacuation of 8,455 people from Sudan in 21 days with zero security incidents.

I hold two international certifications. CCEMP in crisis and emergency management based on ISO 22320 and ISO 22361. CBCP in business continuity based on ISO 22301.

I am open to Head of Security and Security Manager roles in hospitality, banking, and security firms.
