We are currently deployed in the Kingdom through several remits which has us working in three of the main cities already. Additionally, we have recently been awarded some key appointments- including a new assignment from a leading international enterprise as well as a Saudi media giant- that will further develop our portfolio and foothold in the market.”
Among its deployments, PMKConsult is managing the development of a sports and leisure project that will be a community centre for people to participate in team-based sports from football, basketball, to racket sports and everything in between. The sporting complex will accommodate all athletes at the community playing level.

Chief Operating Officer and Executive Director – KSA for PMKConsult, Keenan Grote added: “Both Kevin Woolley and I are extremely pleased to see this expansion take shape with considerable activity already ongoing for our consultancy. We are focused on continuing to deliver our work in the market through our niche technical competence having developed specialism in media and broadcast, healthcare, data centres, and other mission or business critical project management in addition to the commercial office space, retail, hospitality, and sports and leisure appointments that we already have in place.”
