Strategy

-Implement comprehensive project risk management procedures including identification, qualitative analysis, mitigation planning, and maintenance of the project risk register using the enterprise Active Risk Manager system.

-Evaluate the operational readiness of major projects, providing adjustment instructions and feedback to enhance overall project performance.

-Identify communication protocols and establish correspondence policies, reporting structures, and periodic meetings across project stakeholders.

Operations

-Review and validate project designs and drawings, coordinating with contractors to implement necessary technical adjustments.

-Supervise on-site work execution and perform regular field inspections to ensure adherence to quality standards, safety procedures, and project specifications.

-Coordinate with internal and external stakeholders to fulfil all handover requirements, including documentation, punch lists, and technical inspections.

-Ensure the implementation of inspection and testing programs during construction, overseeing material compliance and quality control activities.

-Review and approve traffic diversions during project execution, ensuring proper alignment with RTA safety and diversion protocols.

-Monitor monthly progress against the project schedule baseline, conduct variance analysis, investigate delays, and recommend corrective actions.

-Oversee application of Value Engineering for Roads Department projects under construction and submit insights to relevant committees.

-Track project defects during the Defect Notification Period (DNP), ensuring all outstanding works and snags are resolved effectively.

Process / Product Improvement

-Conduct lessons-learned evaluations from completed projects to identify design or material issues, recommend improvements, and replicate successful practices in future projects.

-Invite and lead kick-off meetings, providing technical orientation to project teams on roles, procedures, reporting requirements, and communication protocols.

-Guide and mentor engineers and technicians to proactively resolve site-level issues and promote effective project management practices.

-Support the maintenance team in identifying defects and repair requirements post completion, ensuring project longevity and sustainability.

-Periodically analyze project performance using OPMS and recommend process simplification, system upgrades, or procedural innovations to improve delivery.

-Supervise inspection and testing activities to ensure that all construction materials and workmanship meet RTA’s quality and technical specifications.

-Physical Working Conditions

-Highly field-intensive role requiring regular site visits to active road and infrastructure project locations across Dubai.

-Work involves on-site inspections, quality audits, traffic diversion reviews, and direct contractor engagement to ensure compliance with technical and safety standards.

-Ensure rapid intervention at project sites during emergencies and incidents within the project area and coordinate effectively with the concerned teams to manage and resolve such situations.

-Bachelor's degree/master's degree in civil engineering and Transportation Engineering

-10 years of experience in road/highway construction and project management
