Construction and real estate jobs in the UAE: How much do they pay?

Mega projects in the region and property development in the hospitality industry are driving demand for experienced professionals in the UAE’s property and construction sector, according to recruitment specialists.

The most sought-after professionals are those with experience in the design and planning stages of a project through to delivery, the Hays 2023 GCC Salary Guide says.

“Certain areas were busier than others – real estate development in the hospitality industry maintained a steady pace throughout the year,” says Aaron Fletcher, senior manager of construction, property and engineering at Hays.

“Additionally, design consultancies were busy recruiting staff to meet project demand in Saudi Arabia and the UAE.”

About a quarter (24 per cent) of construction, property and engineering professionals in the UAE changed roles in 2022, compared with 23 per cent who started a new job in 2021, Hays reports.

The jobs market in the UAE, the second-largest Arab economy, has made a strong recovery from the coronavirus-induced slowdown on the back of the government’s fiscal measures.

The majority of companies in the Emirates plan to hire new employees for the remainder of the year and wages are expected to increase by just under 2 per cent in 2023, according to the Cooper Fitch Salary Guide 2023.

More than half of all companies (57 per cent) expect to increase salaries this year, according to the Cooper Fitch survey, which polled business leaders at 300 companies in the GCC.

With hiring on the increase in the UAE’s property and construction sector, what are the most sought-after jobs and how much do they pay?

Read on to find out – and check out our comprehensive UAE salary guide 2023 slide show below for a snapshot of your sector.

Which property jobs are in demand?

As with previous years, construction delivery roles, including project/construction directors and senior managers, will be required in 2023, according to the Hays salary guide.

Much of this demand will come from the flagship big projects in Saudi Arabia – such as Red Sea Global, Neom, the Diriyah Gate Development Authority and Roshn – that have progressed further in their construction stages, the consultancy estimates.

“For new giga-projects at the design and planning stages, architectural designers and urban planners will be required,” it says.

“Additionally, due to a talent shortage, development directors/managers and candidates who have experience implementing digital technology, especially building information management, will be highly sought-after.”

Recruiter Michael Page says in its 2023 UAE Salary Guide that positions in demand in the UAE’s property and construction sector include project directors and development, real estate asset, leasing, and property and facilities managers.

What job skills are employers looking for?

Experience in managing projects from inception through to handover is desirable, according to Hays.

Employers look for stability and a proven track record of end-to-end project management, the recruiter says.

Equally, as projects evolve, progress and sometimes change direction, a flexible attitude towards work is essential. Employers are increasingly seeking out candidates with a “start-up mentality” that are willing to go above and beyond to deliver, Hays says.

Meanwhile, Michael Page cites real estate consultancy, development and real estate asset management as sought-after roles in the UAE.

“There is a shortage of talent across the GCC for the major real estate consultancies and Big Four organisations offering real estate advisory services such as valuations, development advisory, transaction advisory and more,” it says.

“Major projects have been announced across the region and these companies are busier than ever.”

Organisations are also expanding their project portfolios across the GCC as they looking for new project opportunities to add to their portfolios.

Therefore, development professionals with extensive experience in the initial phases of development such as market research, feasibility and business development are in high demand, Michael Page explains.

“Organisations are also looking to enhance their real estate portfolios. Announcements from key players in the sector with plans to expand portfolios, refurbish or convert assets to meet the market demands has been a common theme,” it says.

“Property and asset management specialists are in demand to support plans to enhance or reposition current portfolios and offer strategic advice to future projects.”

Are salaries expected to rise in the property sector?

Professionals within the property and construction sector feel positive about their pay for this year, with 73 per cent expecting their salary to increase, Hays finds.

Equally, 76 per cent of employers expect rates of pay within their organisation to increase.

However, with employers in the GCC increasingly offering more sustainable salaries and, instead, opting to sell themselves as an employer of choice, the average expected salary increase is 5 per cent or less, according to Hays.

“Employees with high-level responsibilities and strong individual performance are most likely to have their pay increase request approved,” the recruiter says.

What other benefits can employees expect?

Retaining talent has become a top priority in the property and construction sector and organisations are addressing this with consistent promotions, clear lines of career development, full bonus payouts and competitive salaries, according to Michael Page.

“It is a great opportunity for international candidates with these skill sets considering a move to the GCC,” it says.

Developers, property consultancies and construction specialists have been recruiting in large volumes, making the market extremely competitive for employers in terms of securing and retaining top talent, the consultancy says.

“Salaries have increased, benefits are becoming more versatile and people now desire flexible working, such as work-from-home policies,” it says.

“Some employers are meeting the markets' demands; however, many are still operating like pre-Covid times.”

When budgets are limited, organisations must look at their incentives and the candidate motivations, Michael Page recommends.

In a market where candidates’ priorities have changed and family and wellness have become the priority, organisations must learn to accommodate this to remain competitive, the consultancy says.

Aside from the salary and benefits package, the availability of career development opportunities and work-life balance (including flexible working options) are the most important factors for employees when considering a new role, Hays reports.

Employers that want to retain staff should focus on upskilling and reskilling their existing workforce by providing ongoing professional development, it suggests.

Ziina users can donate to relief efforts in Beirut

Ziina users will be able to use the app to help relief efforts in Beirut, which has been left reeling after an August blast caused an estimated $15 billion in damage and left thousands homeless. Ziina has partnered with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees to raise money for the Lebanese capital, co-founder Faisal Toukan says. “As of October 1, the UNHCR has the first certified badge on Ziina and is automatically part of user's top friends' list during this campaign. Users can now donate any amount to the Beirut relief with two clicks. The money raised will go towards rebuilding houses for the families that were impacted by the explosion.”

You may remember …

Robbie Keane (Atletico de Kolkata) The Irish striker is, along with his former Spurs teammate Dimitar Berbatov, the headline figure in this season’s ISL, having joined defending champions ATK. His grand entrance after arrival from Major League Soccer in the US will be delayed by three games, though, due to a knee injury.

Dimitar Berbatov (Kerala Blasters) Word has it that Rene Meulensteen, the Kerala manager, plans to deploy his Bulgarian star in central midfield. The idea of Berbatov as an all-action, box-to-box midfielder, might jar with Spurs and Manchester United supporters, who more likely recall an always-languid, often-lazy striker.

Wes Brown (Kerala Blasters) Revived his playing career last season to help out at Blackburn Rovers, where he was also a coach. Since then, the 23-cap England centre back, who is now 38, has been reunited with the former Manchester United assistant coach Meulensteen, after signing for Kerala.

Andre Bikey (Jamshedpur) The Cameroonian defender is onto the 17th club of a career has taken him to Spain, Portugal, Russia, the UK, Greece, and now India. He is still only 32, so there is plenty of time to add to that tally, too. Scored goals against Liverpool and Chelsea during his time with Reading in England.

Emiliano Alfaro (Pune City) The Uruguayan striker has played for Liverpool – the Montevideo one, rather than the better-known side in England – and Lazio in Italy. He was prolific for a season at Al Wasl in the Arabian Gulf League in 2012/13. He returned for one season with Fujairah, whom he left to join Pune.

WHAT IS A BLACK HOLE?

1. Black holes are objects whose gravity is so strong not even light can escape their pull

2. They can be created when massive stars collapse under their own weight

3. Large black holes can also be formed when smaller ones collide and merge

4. The biggest black holes lurk at the centre of many galaxies, including our own

5. Astronomers believe that when the universe was very young, black holes affected how galaxies formed

Tearful appearance

Chancellor Rachel Reeves set markets on edge as she appeared visibly distraught in parliament on Wednesday. 

Legislative setbacks for the government have blown a new hole in the budgetary calculations at a time when the deficit is stubbornly large and the economy is struggling to grow. 

She appeared with Keir Starmer on Thursday and the pair embraced, but he had failed to give her his backing as she cried a day earlier.

A spokesman said her upset demeanour was due to a personal matter.

Types of fraud

Phishing: Fraudsters send an unsolicited email that appears to be from a financial institution or online retailer. The hoax email requests that you provide sensitive information, often by clicking on to a link leading to a fake website.

Smishing: The SMS equivalent of phishing. Fraudsters falsify the telephone number through “text spoofing,” so that it appears to be a genuine text from the bank.

Vishing: The telephone equivalent of phishing and smishing. Fraudsters may pose as bank staff, police or government officials. They may persuade the consumer to transfer money or divulge personal information.

SIM swap: Fraudsters duplicate the SIM of your mobile number without your knowledge or authorisation, allowing them to conduct financial transactions with your bank.

Identity theft: Someone illegally obtains your confidential information, through various ways, such as theft of your wallet, bank and utility bill statements, computer intrusion and social networks.

Prize scams: Fraudsters claiming to be authorised representatives from well-known organisations (such as Etisalat, du, Dubai Shopping Festival, Expo2020, Lulu Hypermarket etc) contact victims to tell them they have won a cash prize and request them to share confidential banking details to transfer the prize money.
