  • Coordinate with consultants, main contractors, clients, and other stakeholders to ensure smooth project progress.
  • Monitor project schedules, budgets, quality standards, and overall performance.
  • Ensure compliance with HSE requirements and applicable project standards.
  • Lead project teams and drive timely completion, testing, commissioning, and final handover.

Key Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering.
  • Minimum 7 years of experience specifically in MEP Project Management.
  • Ideally 10–15 years of overall professional experience; strong candidates with 10–12 years will also be considered.

  • Must have successfully delivered at least two MEP projects through final handover.
  • Experience managing large-scale MEP project scopes, with exposure to projects valued at AED 70 million or above.
