Abdullah Alnabhan appointed MD of Hill International. Hill International has appointed Abdullah Alnabhan as Managing Director for the Middle East. In this role, Alnabhan will be entrusted with the responsibility of expanding business operations and upholding the quality of professional services in the region. With over two decades of international experience, Alnabhan has been instrumental in assisting governments and private sector clients in developing and implementing strategic programming to achieve their long-term objectives. His expertise spans numerous projects in the Middle East, including strategic initiatives related to Expo 2020 Dubai, Saudi Vision 2030, UAE 2031, and beyond, the statement from Hill explained. During his tenure at Hill, Alnabhan will continue to oversee the Middle East business of Hill's GISI Consulting Group sister company, Palladium, where he has dedicated over 17 years of his career. For the majority of this time, Alnabhan has been the driving force behind leading Palladium's Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) team, it added. Through the cultivation of strong relationships, the establishment of the team, and the provision of effective operational oversight, Alnabhan has achieved remarkable growth, more than tripling the size of Palladium's business in the region. Notably, under his visionary leadership, Consultancy Middle East recently recognised Palladium as one of the region's premier consulting firms, the statement confirmed. Hill International, Chief Executive Officer, Raouf Ghali said, "Facilitated by Abdullah's leadership in the region, Palladium and Hill can offer clients a more comprehensive suite of professional services across advisory and program, project, and construction management disciplines. That's the value of the GISI Consulting Group's platform." Alnabhan remarked, "A large number of infrastructure megaprojects taking place across the region limit the availability of specialty resources and materials. Some projects face logistical and design challenges associated with construction in the region's hot, sandy deserts. Plus, to meet targets set by ambitious national strategies, many owners are also implementing fast-track construction schedules." "The challenges our clients face demand interdisciplinary solutions. Building cross-company teams and adjusting involvement as client needs change will allow us to deliver innovative solutions that keep our clients' projects moving forward. Moreover, the depth of technical knowledge at Hill and Palladium, from Hill's expertise in infrastructure project delivery and risk management to Palladium's advisory capabilities in capital mobilisation and sustainability, positions us as a true consultancy partner for our clients, regardless of where they are in the project life cycle. Both Palladium and Hill have prioritised the cultivation of local talent in the Middle East," he stated. "It would be hard to match the talent at Hill and Palladium alone. Given the group's global expertise across professional services disciplines, combined with our local talent in each of the markets we serve, I believe we have a distinct competitive advantage. This is an especially important differentiator in the Middle East, where project teams are working to overcome resource constraints and deliver some of the world's most complex infrastructure," he continued. "It's an exciting time. With intermodal transit infrastructure like the Saudi Landbridge, deployment of smart-city technologies, investments in aviation infrastructure, green energy projects, data centre developments, and other upcoming initiatives in preparation for Expo 2030 in Riyadh and the 2034 FIFA World Cup throughout Saudi Arabia, the governments of the Middle East are making impressive progress on their long-term visions. I'm proud to be a part of the transformation with two great companies, and look forward to working with my colleagues, new and old, to support our clients," he concluded. In addition to bringing together the expertise of professionals at Hill and Palladium to deliver comprehensive and synergistic consultancy solutions for clients, Alnabhan will leverage the firms' networks of professional relationships to drive business growth and further develop regional partnerships. Derek Amidon, Chief Executive Officer of the GISI Consulting Group concluded, "Abdullah's proven leadership and experience strengthen Hill's and Palladium's Middle East operations as we continue to grow in the region. I am also confident that the appointment will demonstrate the power of cross-company collaboration at the heart of GISI Consulting Group."
