Ultimate Peaks is a boutique executive search and HR advisory firm based in Riyadh that specializes in C-suite, board, and senior professional placements. The firm works with scale-ups, family businesses, PIF-ecosystem clients, and international firms entering Saudi Arabia, as well as corporate boards seeking senior leadership talent.
The firm operates on a selective basis, accepting fewer mandates to provide each engagement with substantial attention. Every executive placement comes with a 6-month replacement guarantee. Ultimate Peaks delivers services with the discretion and pace that senior hiring requires, focusing on clients navigating scaling, transformation, and first-hire decisions in Saudi Arabia.
The firm is founded and led by Dr. Ziyad Alghannam, who brings 17+ years of experience in cultural transformation, workforce strategy, and leadership development. Ultimate Peaks employs the S.C.O.R.E.™ Framework, a proprietary methodology developed by Dr. Alghannam to convert instinct into a repeatable, defensible process for executive placement.
