If you’re someone who takes pride in hands-on work and wants to be part of a team turning blueprints into reality, this could be your chance. We’re looking for dedicated Construction Workers for a variety of roles in Al Rigga — from Safety Officers to Scaffolders, Carpenters, Welders, Masons, and Helpers. With new projects starting up across Dubai, there’s never been a better time to get involved.
About the Company

- Welding and fabrication: Welders will bring together metal structures, following detailed plans and on-site adjustments.
- Masonry tasks: Masons will build and repair walls, floors, and other structures with skill and care.

What You’ll Bring
- Relevant experience in construction — whether you’re a seasoned specialist or eager to learn as a Helper.
- In-country presence: You must already be inside the UAE to apply.
- Willingness to work hard in a fast-paced, sometimes physically demanding environment.
- Team spirit and a commitment to safety.
