Site Civil Engineer – Tunnelling & Substructure, Dubai
Guildhall · Dubai, UAE
Tailor my CV for this job — freeGuildhall is building a shortlist of site civil engineers for EPC contractors delivering tunnelling and substructure projects across Dubai, as major infrastructure programmes scale up. This is a talent pool, not a single vacancy: once a project role is confirmed, Guildhall moves fast to place matched engineers directly with the contractor. You'll be assessed on hands-on delivery experience running shafts, TBM tunnels, piling and deep excavations on site, not design-office or consulting background. Dubai's infrastructure pipeline is deep and contractors will need proven site engineers quickly once roles open. The role
- Supervise daily site works on shafts, TBM tunnels and cut-and-cover structures
- Run piling and deep excavation works to programme and quality standards
- Coordinate subcontractors, method statements, ITPs and inspection requests
- Monitor quantities and progress against the construction programme
- Work alongside design, survey, QA/QC and HSE teams on site
- 5+ years as a site or civil engineer on tunnelling, metro or substructure projects
- BSc in Civil Engineering
- Hands-on experience supervising shafts, TBM tunnels, piling and deep excavations
- TBM, microtunnelling, diaphragm wall or secant pile experience is a plus
- Society of Engineers UAE registration, or eligibility for it, is a plus
- GCC project experience preferred
