Business Unit Manager– Machining & Mechanical Services

About Naqa Iron Naqa Iron for Engineering Products is a Saudi industrial workshop in Yanbu Industrial City. We machine, repair and remake parts for the plants around us: CNC and conventional machining, pump and gearbox repair, dynamic balancing, motor rewinding, and reverse engineering of obsolete parts. Our promise to Yanbu’s plants is simple: fast turnaround from a workshop ten minutes from their gate, instead of sending parts to Jeddah or Dammam. Why this role matters Yanbu is one of the Kingdom’s main industrial hubs. Refineries, petrochemical plants, desalination and power plants, cement, steel and port operations all sit within a short drive of our workshop. Their maintenance teams need a local workshop they can rely on for breakdowns and shutdowns. Your job is to make our Machining & Mechanical Services division that workshop.
