Mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems account for a large share of a building’s cost and complexity. MEP contractors and facilities operators need engineers who understand coordination and commissioning, and technicians who can install and maintain HVAC, electrical, plumbing and fire systems safely.

We recruit MEP engineers, supervisors, foremen and technicians for contractors, consultancies and FM providers in the UAE and GCC. Candidates are screened for relevant system experience and certifications, and sourced locally and from Kenya and East Africa.
