Job Description

Site Engineer Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia · Full-time · On-site Two positions available About the role We are hiring two Site Engineers to lead field execution across a diversified portfolio of commercial, industrial, and residential facilities — showrooms, factories, offices, warehouses, and staff accommodation. This is a dual-function role. Each Site Engineer manages two Foremen and their trade crews, and handles fit-out and renovation projects alongside routine and emergency maintenance, interchangeably. There is no separate maintenance team — the same crews flex between planned project work and reactive callouts, allocated daily through a central dispatch desk. The role reports to the Operations Manager and draws on the Engineering & Consulting department for technical guidance. It suits an engineer who is genuinely field-based rather than office-based, comfortable switching between a scheduled fit-out programme and an emergency breakdown in the same day, and able to hold a multi-national trade workforce to standard.
