This page is dated 2018 at the bottom, so it might help you, especially if you follow the extra links for more information. In general, the lowest retirement ages are for local-government jobs, and private companies are allowed to keep older employees.

Please keep in mind the retirement age is one thing, but the ability to work past age 60 is another. Don't equate retirement age with age limits to work.
If the employer and employee agree, a person can work past the retirement age--male or female.
See Article 74 of the Saudi labor law.
People forget that there are hundreds of thousands of expat workers working in Saudi past age 60. If 60 were the retirement age for ending work, they would all have to leave the country. There is no such requirement.
