Prior to this role, he served as the chief of marketing and corporate communications at the Real Estate Development Fund from February 2019.
Before that, he was the director of business development for small and medium-sized enterprises at Tawuniya Insurance.

He has also served as a Marketing Pioneers Award committee Judge in 2019 and has been a Wa’i Awards judge with the Ministry of Health since 2020.
Roshdi believes that marketing is too important to be left to marketers. He holds that all company members should promote company values and brand essence for the client to get the whole experience they would expect from the brand.
As a marketing enthusiast, he is committed to sharing his views on social media through Twitter and LinkedIn, writing about global and local companies’ stories, focusing on marketing tactics that led to their successes or failures.
He also gives business lectures at many of Saudi Arabia’s top schools to share his views on marketing from a professional standpoint with future generations of business leaders.
With his diverse expertise from food and beverages to insurance and mortgages, he has given many marketing consultations to companies, launching the Saudi Azom Tech cellphone back in January 2021.
Roshdi received a master’s degree in business administration and marketing from Cleveland State University in the US and a bachelor’s degree in marketing from King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals in Dhahran.
