Reporting to the General Manager of Raimondi Middle East, Shakkour will be focusing on strengthening Raimondi’s footprint in Saudi Arabia through a customer-first approach built on transparency, responsiveness, teamwork, and technical excellence.

Raimondi Cranes’ growing footprint in the Kingdom underlines its dedication to supporting local partners with innovative lifting technologies, responsive after-sales service, and a strong technical team based within the region.
