ABOUJAMRA Michel

Michel AbouJamra is Specification Manager at Saint-Gobain, leading architectural engagement and multi-brand technical strategy across Saudi Arabia. With 17 years of experience in architecture, construction, and client representation, he bridges design vision with material and system innovation to deliver sustainable, high-performance buildings.

A graduate of ENSAPVS in France, Michel holds a Double master’s in architecture and an Executive MBA from ESCP Business School. His previous experience led him into managing complex renovation and construction programs that strengthened his expertise in project delivery and stakeholder alignment.

At Saint-Gobain, he supports major giga-projects promoting saint-gobain’s holistic systems that enhance energy efficiency, durability, and occupant comfort through brands such as Gyproc, Weber, Fosroc, Kimmco-Isover, Ecophon, Vetrotech, Saint-Gobain Glass and more. He emphasizes the role of light and sustainable solutions as the essence of modern stadiums and large-scale developments, enabling faster delivery, improved performance, and lower embodied carbon.

Michel strongly advocates early design integration believing that sustainable, high-performing buildings can only be achieved through collaboration between suppliers and architects, consultants, and developers from the project’s earliest stages. He focuses on building trusted relationships not only with design teams but also with developers and decision-makers, ensuring they are equipped to make informed choices that balance creativity, feasibility, cost efficiency and long-term performance.
