Step into Leadership as Our AC Foreman
Ready to take your HVAC career up a notch? We’re looking for an experienced AC Foreman to join our growing team, with a preference for Indian nationals who can hit the ground running. This is your chance to lead field crews on real projects in Dubai, tackle new challenges every week, and play a hands-on role in shaping efficient, comfortable spaces across the city. If you thrive in fast-paced environments and enjoy seeing the results of your team’s work firsthand, you might be the next great fit for us.
About Us
We’re not your run-of-the-mill MEP contractor. Our team in Al Qusais has built a reputation for reliability, quality, and a genuinely supportive work atmosphere — the kind where you’re on a first-name basis with the boss and team lunches actually happen. While we’re hands-on with every project, there’s also genuine respect for balance and personal growth. You’ll notice our Friday safety briefings aren’t just about rules — they’re about teamwork, learning, and sharing in each success together.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Supervising day-to-day HVAC installation, maintenance, and repair tasks at diverse project sites.
- Leading, motivating, and training a crew of technicians and helpers for top-quality workmanship.
- Reading and interpreting project drawings, schematics, or HVAC plans and ensuring proper implementation.
- Coordinating with engineers, clients, and other trades to resolve technical issues as they arise.
- Managing material inventory and site logistics — from requesting spare parts to organizing daily workflow.
- Enforcing safety protocols and quality standards, making sure every job site is tidy and compliant.
- Completing daily progress reports and updating management with accurate site status.
- Quickly troubleshooting issues on-site — whether it’s a faulty chiller or a last-minute spec change.
What You’ll Bring
Must-Haves
- At least 2 years’ hands-on experience in HVAC installation and maintenance (site-based preferred)
- Strong leadership and supervisory ability, with a knack for bringing out the best in your team
- Valid UAE driving license (essential for field mobility)
- Practical knowledge of HVAC systems, tools, and troubleshooting techniques
- Comfortable communicating in English (Hindi/Urdu is a plus)
- Can-do attitude, reliability, and an eye for quality work
Nice-to-Haves
- Previous work experience in the UAE HVAC industry
- Familiarity with safety and compliance standards in the region
- Ability to read electrical/control wiring diagrams
Not sure you tick every box? We’d still love to hear from you.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
- Competitive salary package, discussed openly during your interview
- Dynamic, approachable team with supportive management
- Respect for work-life balance (no endless overtime marathons here)
- Regular on-the-job learning and growth opportunities
- Convenient location in Al Qusais — right in front of Dr. Safeena’s Sal Fahad Building
- Uniforms and essential gear provided for all staff
- Recognition for hard work and initiative — you won’t be just another name on the roster
We believe a strong team starts with trust, respect, and the chance to grow — both as a professional and as a person. If you’re ready to step up and make a real impact, let’s connect!
