Construction & Engineering

The UAE’s construction, engineering, and real estate industries are among the most dynamic and ambitious in the world, from iconic skyscrapers and mega-developments to smart infrastructure, sustainable cities, and industrial expansions. Delivering these projects successfully requires a highly skilled workforce that is dependable, compliant, and equipped for specialized technical demands.

However, recruiting and managing construction and engineering teams in the UAE comes with unique challenges, from strict safety and compliance standards to project-based workforce fluctuations.

Atribs Metscon Group provides end-to-end staffing, EOR, and recruitment solutions tailored to the UAE’s fast-moving construction and engineering landscape.

The UAE Construction & Engineering Landscape

The UAE continues to expand with major projects in:

• Residential & commercial real estate

• Roads, bridges & transportation engineering
• Industrial manufacturing plants
• Oil & gas engineering
• Energy & utility infrastructure
• Mega mixed-use developments
• Rail & logistics infrastructure
• Hospitality & tourism development projects

This growth demands skilled engineers, project managers, technicians, and operational staff.

Hiring Challenges in the UAE Construction & Engineering Sector

• Shortage of Skilled Engineers & Technical Specialists – Structural engineers, MEP experts, quantity surveyors, project managers, and BIM specialists are in high demand.
