We are constantly growing and are looking for a hands-on Energy Division Operations Manager (Construction-focused) in Dubai, UAE, to drive construction execution across our Oil & Gas project portfolio, reporting directly to the Division Director.

Build on something that matters!

Role Purpose:

Reporting directly to the Energy Division Director, the role provides senior, hands-on construction leadership across a portfolio of Oil & Gas projects.

Working closely with Project Directors and Project Managers, the role will coordinate construction resources, methodologies, strategies and execution plans across projects, create synergies between sites, and help resolve critical cross-project construction challenges.

• Develop, review and challenge construction methodologies and execution plans.
• Act as the senior escalation point, helping Project Directors and Managers resolve major construction issues.
• Drive productivity, efficiency and consistent HSE and quality standards.
• Support new project mobilisation, tenders and pre-construction planning.
• Maintain a strong site presence and intervene when performance or resources require action.
• Support the selection and development of key construction personnel.

What you will need to have:

• Engineering degree (B.Sc. or M.Sc.).
• 25–30 years in Oil & Gas construction (around 20 years considered for exceptional candidates).
• Proven Construction Director-level experience with a construction-focused contractor, leading site construction across multiple projects and owning resources, methodologies and execution plans.
• Experience on projects of USD 500 million–1 billion.
• Strong Middle East experience, ideally in the UAE (KSA also considered).
• Excellent English and high mobility; ADNOC experience preferred, Aramco experience and Arabic a plus.

You are someone who:

• Hands-on Construction Leader: Has personally led complex construction work and can challenge methodologies, resourcing decisions and execution plans with credibility.
• Cross-Project Resource Manager: Sees the portfolio as a whole and actively moves resources to where they create the greatest operational value.
• Impactful Influencer: Builds authority through expertise, sound judgement and collaboration, particularly with experienced project leaders.
• Decisive Problem Solver: Acts decisively on field constraints and develops practical solutions before issues escalate.
• Stakeholder Partner: Works constructively with Project Management and functional heads while maintaining clear accountability.
• Execution-Driven Leader: Upholds high standards of HSE, quality, productivity and delivery discipline.

What's in it for you:

Expat package is on the shelf, yet the real joy comes from being a member of smart and passionate teams, within an international leading EPC Group on a mission that matters.
