ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a bilingual (Arabic and English) Data & AI leader to build Protiviti’s public sector data business in Qatar.

• Solution leadership: Design solutions on Informatica, Microsoft (Azure, Fabric, Purview) and Google Cloud (GCP).

• Thought leadership: Represent Protiviti at industry forums and government events, and help shape Qatar’s data and AI agenda.

REQUIRED EXPERIENCE

• 10+ years in data and analytics consulting, with at least 5 years at a Big 4 or leading consulting firm.

• Significant track record in Qatar, ideally with public sector clients.

• Established relationships with the NPC, ministries and banks.

• Proven business development success, with a record of originating and closing engagements.

• Experience building or leading teams.

TECHNICAL PROFICIENCY

• Strong grounding in data management and governance: frameworks, data quality, master data management, metadata management and data cataloguing.

• Hands-on knowledge of the Informatica platform (IDMC, Data Quality, MDM, Axon/EDC).

• Experience with the Microsoft data stack (Azure, Fabric, Purview) and/or Google Cloud data services.

• Familiarity with Qatar and GCC national data regulations and government data standards.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• Fluent Arabic and English, written and spoken (required).

• An entrepreneurial, practice-building mindset, comfortable creating something new.

• Credibility with senior stakeholders and strong executive communication.

• Relevant certifications are a plus (CDMP, DAMA, Informatica, Azure or GCP).
