Role (3) Fire Safety Liaison Officer........To work with Civil Defence units throughout the Gulf, providing advice and keeping them up to date system specific information.

The company.......One of the world’s leading engineering design firms. With 40 years experience and 2000+ staff in the gulf alone, they are the region’s top player. They got to be the best by following one simple mantra – Excellence in everything they do. When there are world-class projects going on – these guys are there....and we are not talking just million dollar projects or even billion dollar but multi-billion dollar projects. So, it is only fair that they seek out the best staff...........you?

The person....... Fire Safety Engineers and liaison officers may come from a fire-fighting background and have progressed into a fire safety role. You should have background of assessing, reporting, advising and ensuring compliance with Fire safety codes. Designers may be a mechanical engineer with fire systems/buildings services design experience. Designers need to be familiar with sprinkler system design to NFPA codes and relevant design software.

The location.......Western media hype has led many people to believe that the Middle East is a backward, unruly place where only single men went to work in the oil business. Nothing could be further from the truth. The United Arab Emirates offer a modern, progressive and very safe environment which is now home for many thousands of expatriate families. Dubai and Abu Dhabi are thriving, cosmopolitan cities that rival anything in the west – except you are far more likely to get mugged in downtown Washington than Dubai. With a hot climate, fabulous beaches and all the watersports you can dream of right on your doorstep – it is a great place for singlies and families alike. Popularity has its price though and property prices/rents are high.

The rewards.......Employers are aware of the cost of living so will compensate you with the following:

• A very competitive tax-free salary

• Tax-free accommodation and transportation allowances

• Company bonuses

• 30 days annual leave

• Health and life cover

• Free flight home annually.
