• Employee Relations & Welfare: Direct employee relations for a vast, matrixed workforce. Oversee compliance regarding labor accommodation standards, site safety welfare, and blue-collar grievance frameworks.

• Compliance & UAE Labor Law: Ensure absolute adherence to the UAE Labor Law, Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) regulations, quota demands, visa allocations, and corporate immigration policies.

• Performance & Talent Pipeline: Administer performance evaluation frameworks, manage retention risks within high-demand engineering/project roles, and build localized succession plans.

• HR Data & Optimization: Evaluate manpower utilization, turnover trends, and structural HR costs to advise executive management on operational optimizations within the division.

Requirements & Qualifications

• Experience: Minimum 5–8 years of progressive HRBP experience, within a large-scale construction, civil contracting, or heavy engineering group in the UAE.

• Industry Acumen: Proven background managing complex human resource challenges across multiple concurrent commercial entities or industrial subsidiaries.

• Legal Expertise: Expert, up-to-date knowledge of UAE Labor Law and MOHRE procedural frameworks.

• Stakeholder Management: Exceptional interpersonal and negotiation skills, capable of influencing both corporate executive directors and construction site managers.

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in HR Management, Business Administration, or related fields. Professional HR accreditations (e.g., CIPD, SHRM) are highly preferred.
