Senior Project Engineer, New Equipment Installation

Role Overview

The Project Engineer will manage a portfolio of new elevator installation projects across Dubai, from pre-start planning and site preparation through installation, testing, handover and transition to Service. Reporting to the Area Project Manager, the role is responsible for safe execution, technical and contractual coordination, schedule and cost control, project financial performance and customer satisfaction. You will work closely with customers, consultants, main contractors, subcontractors and internal engineering, supply chain, safety, quality and Service teams to deliver projects within the agreed requirements and timelines.

On a Typical Day You Will

  • Manage multiple new elevator installation projects from pre-start planning through installation, testing, handover and transition to Service.
  • Review contracts, specifications, approved drawings and technical submissions to confirm the project scope, responsibilities and execution requirements.
  • Conduct site surveys and readiness inspections covering shaft dimensions, access, power supply, storage, lifting arrangements and interfaces with other building systems.
  • Develop and maintain project schedules for engineering approvals, material deliveries, logistics, installation, testing and handover.
  • Coordinate material requirements and delivery schedules with factories, supply chain, logistics providers and site teams.
  • Plan and manage subcontractors, installation teams, tools, materials and specialist resources in line with project priorities.
  • Lead safe site execution through risk assessments, toolbox talks, field inspections and timely corrective actions.
  • Monitor installation progress, identify risks or delays and implement recovery plans to meet contractual and customer commitments.
  • Coordinate with customers, consultants, main contractors and other trades to resolve technical, access, sequencing and site-readiness issues.
  • Maintain accurate contractual correspondence and project records related to instructions, approvals, delays, access constraints and changes.
  • Identify deviations from the contracted scope and support the submission and closure of variation orders and commercial claims.
  • Monitor project costs, labor efficiency, billing, collections, forecasts and overall financial performance.
  • Initiate purchase requests for subcontractors, tools, local materials, manpower and other project requirements.
  • Conduct stage-wise quality inspections and ensure nonconformities and outstanding work are closed before testing and handover.
  • Plan testing, commissioning, regulatory inspections and final handover activities in accordance with project deadlines.
  • Prepare accurate progress reports, customer updates, risk reviews and management forecasts.
  • Build strong customer relationships through clear communication, timely escalation and reliable delivery.

What You Will Need to Be Successful

  • Bachelor’s degree in mechanical, Electrical, Electromechanical, Mechatronics or another relevant engineering discipline.
  • A minimum of 10 years of project execution experience in the elevator and escalator industry, including new equipment installation.
  • Demonstrated experience independently managing a high-volume portfolio of projects across different stages of execution.
  • Strong knowledge of elevator installation, technical drawings, site requirements, mechanical and electrical interfaces, testing, quality control and field safety.
  • Commercial and contractual experience covering project cost control, forecasting, variations, claims, subcontractor management, billing and collections.
  • Strong planning, problem-solving, customer-management and stakeholder-coordination skills.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and project scheduling tools; experience with Microsoft Project or Primavera is preferred.
  • Strong written and spoken English, including the ability to prepare professional reports and contractual correspondence.
  • Willingness to travel regularly between project sites across Dubai and other locations in the United Arab Emirates when required.
  • A valid United Arab Emirates driving license is preferred.
