MohammedGorgoush
I build partnerships that hold up under pressure. Grounded in Saudi Arabia, sharpened in the United States, focused on Vision 2030.
From the field.
I like the part of the job where the plan meets the people who have to carry it.
About
Engineering, social work, business. One way of working.
Journey
Two countries, eleven years, ten roles.
Work
Nine case studies with the numbers behind them.
Services
Lecturing, consulting, program leadership.
Studies
Three degrees, a certificate, the PMP.
Ask
An assistant that knows my record, and checks fit for a role.
Three trainings, one operator.
Saudi national. My first job was on the stage crew of the Saudi Film Festival in the Eastern Province, handling vendors and sponsors before I had a degree. Then came engineering technology at the Technical Trainers College, a program run by Lincoln College Group UK with TVTC, and a year delivering IT infrastructure for AZMEEL Contracting.
In 2019 I went to the United States. I represented the Saudi Arabian Cultural Mission at the University of Kansas, earned an MSW at Washington University in St. Louis while running a $280K operations portfolio at the Brown School, and finished a STEM-designated MBA at the University of Maryland's Smith School in 2026.
The training is unusual on paper. In practice it works: engineering taught me systems, social work taught me people, and the MBA taught me how to put a number on both. I'm back in the Kingdom now, looking for work where partnerships, programs, and Vision 2030 meet.

Hart & Hustle Podcast
Guest conversation on career transitions and working between Saudi and American settings.
Two countries. Eleven years.
Pick a year or drag the globe. Every stop added something the next one needed.
Every role, in detail.
The work, up close.
Nine case studies. Open any card for the problem, what I did, what came out of it, and photos from the work.
Bring me in.
Beyond a full-time role, these are the ways organizations work with me.
Guest lecturing
Sessions on strategy, project management, event operations, and building a career between Saudi and international settings. Recent guest sessions at the Saudi Entertainment Academy and the Technical Trainers College.
Strategy and partnerships
Market research, partner mapping, and a working plan for organizations building programs under Vision 2030. From the first stakeholder map to the signed agreement.
Program leadership
PMP-certified delivery for multi-stakeholder programs. Scope, budget, vendors, and reporting kept in one place, with a steady hand when the date does not move.
Event operations
Matchday and festival operations, vendor coordination, and sponsor handling. Learned on the Saudi Film Festival stage and at Audi Field during FIFA Club World Cup 2025.
Bilingual moderation
Panels, workshops, and executive conversations in Arabic and English, for audiences that include both.
