Mr. Abdulrahman Al-Ghabban was recently appointed Saudi Arabia’s new country manager for Bechtel. Abdulrahman Al-Ghabban joined Bechtel in 2013 as business development manager for the power business unit. In 2015, he was appointed deputy country manager for Saudi Arabia in addition to continuing his business development role. Noting that Saudi citizens comprise the highest percentage of local nationals employed by Bechtel world-wide, Mr. C. David Welch, Bechtel’s President for International and Government Affairs, said “We are very proud of our decision to appoint the first Saudi national as country manager for Bechtel in the Kingdom. Bechtel has hired and trained hundreds if not thousands of Saudis over the past several decades because we realize that the strategic objectives of the Kingdom’s economic vision hinges on investing in local talent.”
