[ref. d76396624] Operations Director Construction and Contracting
Abu Dhabi
Description
- A construction director is a person who is responsible for the planning, budgeting and coordinating of various construction projects. These projects will normally be spread out through different sectors: residential, commercial and industrial infrastructure. Depending on a director’s expertise, skill level and specialty, these people can either be adept at a specific field, or knowledgeable enough to lead a construction team of 3 to 4 project managers, each of whom will be handling their responsible projects.
- Construction directors are also at the helm of other projects, such as factories, treatment facilities, roads and highways, bridges, dams and more.
- Should have handled projects worth more than 1 to 1.2 billion.
- Needless to say, a construction director has a plethora of responsibilities, ranging from supervising an entire construction project or just a specific area, coordinating with multiple construction teams, to overseeing the design of a project.
- Directors can also check different aspects of a construction project, such as plumbing, electrical, carpentry, waste disposal and more. Construction directors can either work as a company-employed worker, or on a contractual or consultancy basis.
- A director normally receives project assignments from contracting companies, construction developers and independent property owners.
- A competent construction director will be very involved in a project, right from its developmental phase. Directors must see to it that a project proceeds according to its plan specifics, budget and estimated time of completion.
- As such, engineers, architects and property owners will have to coordinate with a construction director in the earliest stages of a project to see to it that no resources are wasted.
- For large and highly complex construction projects, constructions directors will often be assigned to different project areas. Again, the more knowledgeable, skilled and experienced a construction director is, the more responsibilities he will have.
