About the Company
We’re a fast-growing construction firm with projects spanning all over the Emirates, but our base camp is in Umm Al Quwain. Our team is a melting pot of backgrounds — some of us have built skyscrapers, while others started with zero experience. What we share is grit, teamwork, and a knack for getting things done right. We believe everyone deserves a fair shot — that’s why we offer not just jobs, but a place to live, grow, and belong. On Fridays? You’ll find us gathering for a communal meal or catching a live football match on TV in the staff lounge.

- Supporting skilled crews on active construction sites — from moving materials to assisting with daily site setup
- Completing basic maintenance, cleaning, and organization tasks to keep project areas safe and efficient
- Following instructions from site supervisors and experienced workers — it’s a team effort every day
- Helping with demolition, repairs, or building tasks (you’ll always get on-the-job training)
- Traveling between job locations as needed, all transportation provided by the company
- Working outside and on your feet (it’s real, physical work — you’ll go home feeling accomplished!)

- Familiarity with basic safety practices (we’ll train you if not)

Not sure you tick every box? We’d still love to hear from you.
