HRE Development Appoints Mohammad Al Sari as New CEO Amidst Company Expansion

HRE Development has named Mohammad Al Sari as its new Chief Executive Officer, marking a significant leadership change during a period of growth and expansion for the Dubai-based real estate developer.

HRE Development, a prominent Dubai real estate firm established in 2021, has announced the appointment of Mohammad Al Sari as its new Chief Executive Officer. Al Sari previously served as the Chief Development Officer and brings over 20 years of experience in the UAE real estate sector, specialising in property development, wellness-oriented design, and architectural excellence.

Leadership Transition and Strategic Vision

Al Sari’s promotion comes at a time of significant growth for HRE Development. His leadership is expected to strengthen the company’s vision and accelerate strategic expansion. HRE Development’s Chairman, Mohamed Adib Hijazi, stated that Al Sari's appointment is a "significant milestone" for the company, anticipating his instrumental role in delivering developments focused on purpose, quality, and lasting value.

Al Sari is known for championing the philosophy that early project delivery is a strict operational discipline rather than merely a marketing tactic, a principle exemplified by the company's six-month early delivery of the Skyhills Residences 1 project. He plans to focus on building premium projects in Dubai's most sought-after communities, aiming to integrate investors and end-users into the city's future development.

Future Growth and Operational Approach

Looking ahead, Al Sari predicts that major infrastructure advancements, such as the upcoming Dubai Gold Line, will boost the appeal of strategic residential hubs including Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC), MBR City, and Meydan for global investors. He will also oversee HRE Contracting and Construction, the company's in-house construction arm, which manages design, procurement, and handover to ensure rigorous end-to-end quality control and reduce reliance on third-party contractors.

HRE Development, backed by a construction firm with over three decades of experience, has delivered more than 350 projects and created homes for over 12,000 families, managing a portfolio valued at nearly AED 11 billion. The company also has a strong commitment to social impact, having contributed AED 30 million to Dubai Cares and AED 100 million to the Mother of the Nation Endowment for Orphans.
