Role purpose

To support the planning and delivery of a large-scale, mixed-use development programme by translating master-plan and design information into practical, buildable implementation strategies.

Working under the direction of the Implementation Manager, the Engineer develops construction phasing, site logistics, constructability input, contract-packaging support, implementation metrics and risk assessments, and consolidates these into clear, well-structured reports and presentations — for example, the implementation/constructability report that forms part of the Detailed Masterplan (DMP).

This is a hands-on technical delivery role. The post-holder produces the analysis and documentation; overall strategy, stakeholder management and final sign-off sit with the Implementation Manager.

Key responsibilities

Constructability & construction methodology

Show full description
  • Review master-plan and design information for buildability, flagging conflicts, clashes and construction risks early.
  • Develop and compare construction methodologies — e.g. top-down vs bottom-up, cut-and-cover, deep excavation with shoring/retaining systems, slipform/climbing formwork, precast/modular and off-site approaches, and heavy-lifting / SPMT operations.
  • Provide constructability input to designers and support value engineering and simplification of construction methods.

Construction phasing & sequencing

  • Prepare 2D (and, where required, 4D) phasing plans showing the sequence of assets, roads, utilities and temporary works across the programme.
  • Develop sequencing and line-of-balance logic to enable efficient progress and timely asset opening.
  • Keep phasing aligned to the latest project programme (IDS / master schedule) and design revisions.

Site logistics & land take

  • Plan construction logistics: laydown/land-take zones, haul and temporary construction roads, access and offloading areas, batching-plant locations, and crane/lifting zones.
  • Develop traffic-management and delivery strategies (HGV movements, worker transport and accommodation needs) for congested, multi-contractor sites.

Implementation / production metrics

  • Develop implementation metrics over time using GFA, programme data and regional benchmarks — e.g. GFA under construction, workforce, concrete volumes, heavy-vehicle movements, tower-crane and plant demand, and asset/key delivery curves.
  • Use these metrics to support decisions on facilities, resourcing and contractor demand.

Packaging & procurement support

  • Support development of contract/work-packaging strategies, including allocation of assets across contractor tiers and input on procurement routes (e.g. Design & Build vs traditional).
  • Identify opportunities to combine or split packages for efficiency.

Interface & coordination

  • Coordinate across master-planning, infrastructure, utilities, roads and mobility/rail teams, and between multiple contractors, to manage interfaces and dependencies.

Risk

  • Identify implementation risks, carry out qualitative assessment (probability/impact, pre- and post-mitigation), and propose practical mitigations and next steps.

Reporting & document production

  • Produce clear, well-structured technical reports, drawings, diagrams, dashboards and presentations to a professional standard, consolidating the above into deliverables such as implementation/constructability reports.

Qualifications & experience

Essential

  • Bachelor's degree in Civil, Structural or Construction Engineering (or a related discipline).
  • Approximately 10 years of relevant experience on large building and/or infrastructure projects, with a contractor, consultant/PMC or developer.
  • Hands-on exposure to at least two of: construction planning/phasing, constructability/methodology, site logistics, or contract packaging.
  • Sound working knowledge of construction methods, sequencing and site logistics on large, complex projects.

Desirable / advantageous

  • Experience on giga-/mega-projects or large mixed-use developments, ideally in the Gulf region.
  • Exposure to deep basements, tunnelling/metro, bridges or heavy civil works.
  • Working towards professional registration/chartership (e.g. CEng / PE).
  • Master's degree in a relevant discipline.

Technical competencies

Essential

  • AutoCAD / Civil 3D and GIS (ArcGIS or QGIS) for spatial planning and phasing.
  • Programme literacy — able to read and work to Primavera P6 / MS Project schedules.
  • Advanced Excel, with strong reporting and presentation skills.

Desirable

  • 4D/BIM tools (e.g. Synchro, Navisworks) and data-visualisation tools (e.g. Power BI).
  • Document/graphics tools (e.g. Adobe InDesign) for producing high-quality reports.

Behavioural competencies

  • Coordination & communication — works effectively across multi-disciplinary teams and multiple contractors, managing interfaces and dependencies.
  • Practical & solutions-focused — translates complex design information into buildable, pragmatic strategies.
  • Detail-oriented — produces accurate, well-structured technical output to a professional standard.
  • Delivery under pressure — comfortable working to tight programmes and managing competing priorities.
  • Takes direction well — delivers high-quality technical output within a structured review process, with appropriate guidance from the Implementation Manager.

Staying safe while you apply

  • Never pay to apply, interview or accept an offer. ROLIVA never asks you for payment to apply to a job.
  • Apply only through the official “Apply on the employer’s site” button, on the employer’s own site, and check that a recruiter’s email uses that employer’s own domain rather than a free email address.
  • Be cautious of an offer made with no real interview, or pressure to decide quickly or share financial details early.
