In addition, the Regional Manager will develop and agree a strategic plan covering the education sector, working with stakeholders and key partners in Northern Ireland, Saudi Arabia, and ultimately Levant region to raise the profile of Northern Ireland colleges and universities, with the aim to find institutional partnerships for Northern Ireland educational institutions.

The Regional Manager will develop an operational plan for the next three years, covering activities in Saudi Arabia and the Levant region, outlining resources (budget, staffing / support) required, agree it with the management team, and manage the approved resources allocation; and report activities to the Head of IMEA and Invest NI head office on a timely manner.

In order to carry out their work effectively, the Regional Manager will be required to forge effective working relationships with a wide range of businesses, senior officials, industry leaders and influencers, stakeholders, Northern Ireland diaspora/ expat community, and government officials both in the target markets and in Northern Ireland.

They will represent Invest NI at relevant business functions and speak at them when required. They will also provide business advice to Northern Ireland companies (market research and analysis, sector reports, location reports or product reports) and produce these reports on a timely basis. In addition, the jobholder will be required to undertake travel on a regular basis, either within Saudi Arabia, Levant region, the wider IMEA region, or to the UK; and work or travel outside their normal working hours from time to time.
