Management consultancy firm Bain & Company has opened its new regional headquarters in Riyadh, strengthening its long-standing commitment to the Kingdom and the wider Middle East region.
The new office highlights Bain’s continued investment in cultivating talent, supporting national transformation, and building even closer partnerships with clients across the region.
Since 1990, Bain has worked with clients in the Middle East region, helping shape ambitious strategies and drive impact across various industries. With the launch of its first regional office in 2007, the firm strengthened its on-the-ground presence and over the years, it has established itself as a trusted partner in many of the region’s transformation programs.
The new office, located at King Abdullah Financial District, provides a thriving environment for Bain’s growing team. Drawing inspiration from Saudi Arabia’s rich and diverse culture, with design elements reflecting its different regions, the office will foster collaboration, innovation, and deeper client connection at the heart of the city’s vibrant business community.

“This investment is a natural next step on our journey in Saudi Arabia. It’s a reflection of the trust our clients have placed in us, the incredible talent we’ve been able to build, and our continued optimism about the market’s future. Being in KAFD puts us closer to many of our clients, and the new space gives our team the right environment to collaborate, grow, and continue delivering meaningful results.”
With a space more than twice the footprint of its previous space, the new office comes with a significant upgrade in both scale and functionality. It integrates the latest workplace technologies, including flexible hybrid workspaces, high-tech collaboration tools, and enhanced facilities to support both in-person and remote engagements.
Furthermore, the design highlights Bain’s ongoing commitment to driving sustainability, with the space aiming to achieve the highest environmental standards, including LEED certification for energy efficiency and sustainable building practices.
Tom De Waele, Middle East Managing Partner at Bain & Company, added that, “Our region has always been a priority for Bain — and our presence in Riyadh, alongside our clients and teams, is a cornerstone of that. This milestone is about investing where it matters most: enabling us to be closer to and better serve our clients from the latest infrastructure in the heart of Riyadh, while also providing a state-of-the-art home for our exceptional and fast-growing Saudi team, as well as international experts visiting the Kingdom to support them. We’re grateful for the partnerships we’ve built in the market and are excited about what lies ahead.”
