Gulf Technical Construction Company (GTCC) is the construction contracting arm of DSI. The firm is looking to employ around 2000 staff in total this year to fuel growth plans primarily in Abu Dhabi and Saudi Arabia.
“A lot of people who have lost their jobs so there are more people out there,” said GTCC executive director Saleh Muradweij.
“It is an opportunity for us to look into a larger pool of talent than previously. We are adding new people for the projects that we have been awarded inside the UAE and outside.”
Muradweij said the firm was getting invitations to retender for projects that were originally awarded towards the end of last year. “Now they have been redesigned and retendered again,” he said.
The firm has already held two open days to recruit for the UAE. This is its first such event to fill its vacancies in Saudi Arabia.
