Yes, it is possible to change jobs with your employer’s consent, but under the most recent regulations this cannot be done until you have completed two years with your current employer. As to the actual procedure: This is done by your current employer who will prepare your papers with a written approval called a no-objection certificate. This is then forwarded to the Passport Department who actually executes the transfer of the iqama to the new employer.
The rules are very strict in this regard. The only way to renew a re-entry visa from the local Saudi Embassy is to provide a convincing reason why you delayed your return, such as sickness or some other compelling reason.
