This role is the liaison between sites, suppliers, and the client consultant, and conveys this liaison in English.</p><p><strong>&nbsp; Tasks and responsibilities &nbsp;</strong></p><p><strong>First: Office logistics and procurement support</strong></p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Prepare technical and financial comparison tables, verify each quote against specifications, and raise recommendations to management for award.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Prepare internal purchase requests, follow up on issued purchase orders, fix delivery dates, and expedite any supplier that is delayed.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Maintain a material tracking log — what was requested, in transit, delivered, and still pending — and circulate weekly.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Identify long lead-time materials at the start of each project, and notify management in writing of any material threatening its planned delivery schedule.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Coordinate transport, hire machinery, and equipment movement between sites, and secure related permits.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Maintain a log of machinery and equipment: location, operating hours, fuel consumption, maintenance dates, and certificate validity.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Prepare and submit material submittals with their technical data, and maintain a log of their status and dates.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Issue the latest approved edition of each drawing to site, and withdraw obsolete editions from circulation.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Compile quantities from drawings and compare with the BOQ; define additional works before execution, not after.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Prepare method statements, ITPs, and material approval requests.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Review daily and weekly site reports, update progress against the schedule, and raise variances with reasons.</p><p><strong>Third: Measurement, interim payments, and cost control</strong></p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Prepare interim monthly progress certificates: measurement sheets, quantities, supporting documents, and a pictorial record, submitted on the contractual date.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Verify subcontractor interim payments against actual billed works, and certify only what is proven.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Prepare change orders and extension requests with supporting documents and cost analysis.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Maintain a comparison of actual cost vs budget for each item in the BOM and escalate any overruns when they occur, not at project close.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Reconcile material consumption with theoretical quantities from drawings and report waste or loss.</p><p><strong>Fourth: Subcontractors and suppliers</strong></p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Prepare scopes of work for subcontractors and RFQ packages, and compare bids on a comparable basis.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Maintain approved suppliers and subcontractors lists, with contact details, prices, and past performance records.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Monitor validity of subcontractor insurance and bonds, registrations, and work permits, and provide warnings before expiry.</p><p><strong>Fifth: Planning and reporting</strong></p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Maintain baseline schedule and update actual progress on agreed dates (MS Project or Primavera P6).</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Prepare weekly and monthly progress reports, including the cumulative progress curve (S-Curve), labor and equipment curves, and pictorial log.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Maintain a log of action items arising from client, consultant, and internal meetings, and follow through to closure.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Contribute to preparing tender timelines, method of execution, and resource schedules accompanying bids.</p><p><strong>Sixth: Documentation and correspondences in English</strong></p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Draft technical correspondences, RFIs, approvals, transmittals, and progress reports in English with sound technical terminology.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Attend meetings with clients and consultants, present the technical position, and prepare meeting minutes.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Control project documentation: numbering, transmittal log, drawing register, and archiving all outgoing and incoming items in an organized manner.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Note: Company clients are international entities and organizations, and their contracts, specifications, and correspondences are in English only; thus English writing proficiency is a mandatory requirement for this role, not an added bonus.</p><p><strong>&nbsp; Qualifications and experience &nbsp;</strong></p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering (preferred), or Electrical or Mechanical Engineering, from a recognized university.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Valid membership in the Engineers Syndicate or equivalent in the work country.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Four (4) years of experience or more with a contracting company in the technical office or in project execution; design office experience alone is not a substitute.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Proficiency in English speaking and writing — mandatory. Arabic is the daily language for site coordination.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Proficiency in AutoCAD, advanced Excel, Word, and MS Project or Primavera P6; familiarity with Revit and BIM systems is a plus.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Ability to quantify accurately and read civil, structural, and MEP drawings and specifications.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Practical knowledge of FIDIC contracts and the structure of BOQs and certifying interim payments is a plus.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Valid driving license and willingness to travel to sites.</p><p><strong>&nbsp; Personal skills and competencies &nbsp;</strong></p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Numerical accuracy — this role deals with quantities that translate into money, and any miscalculation will cost later.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Organizational ability to manage multiple projects concurrently without neglecting any.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Proactive rather than reactive: procurement and submission ahead of need, not after work stops due to shortage.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Clear and proper English writing, enabling communication with the consultant without rephrasing the letter.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Discretion in dealing with prices, costs, profit margins, and supplier terms.</p><p>▪&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Ability to stand firm on a technical position under client or consultant pressure, and escalate to management instead of yielding.</p><p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p>
