PMO - Projects Manager @ AL BABTAIN CONTRACTING COMPANY
About
For 20 years, I've been inside the world of project management. From my first days as a Site Engineer in Cairo, to leading PMO operations for multimillion-dollar construction projects across Saudi Arabia. I've lived every stage of the PM career journey. I know what it takes to get in the room, and I know what it takes to stay there. That experience is now what I bring to every professional I coach. I am the Career Coach for Project Managers in the GCC. Not a generalist. Not someone who read about your challenges in a book. Someone who has managed the projects, led the teams, navigated the politics, and earned the credentials. PMP, PMI-ACP, P3GP, MBA from Leicester University, and who now dedicates that knowledge to one purpose: helping PM professionals take the next step with confidence. Because that's what I see holding most talented professionals back. Not skill. Not experience. Confidence. The confidence to go for the promotion. To negotiate the offer. To back themselves fully. That's exactly what my coaching is designed to build. Here's how I work with you:Through my 90-Day PM Career Accelerator, I work with project management professionals who are ready to move but aren't sure how. Together we: - Define a clear, actionable career roadmap aligned to your goals- Identify the gaps standing between you and the next level- Build a LinkedIn presence that gets you noticed by the right people- Craft a resume and personal brand that reflects your true value- Prepare you for interviews with the confidence to walk in and own the room By the end of 90 days, you won't just have a plan, you'll have the clarity and conviction to execute it. Beyond coaching, I share weekly insights on career growth and management excellence through Tahaddi Podcast (بودكاست تحدي), featuring conversations with industry leaders and experts that help professionals like you think bigger and grow faster. With nearly 200 episodes, it has become one of the leading Arabic-language resources for PM and career development in the region.If you are a project manager in the GCC who is ready to stop waiting and start moving, let's talk. 📩 info@samehmakky.com 📱 WhatsApp: +966552891377A few things worth knowing:• 20 years in project management across construction and infrastructure• PMP | PMI-ACP | P3GP | MBA "University of Leicester" | DBA candidate "Guglielmo Marconi University"• Published researcher on mega project management• Active global speaker and Toastmaster
