About This Role

Project Manager — Developer Side

Majid Developments \| Dubai, UAE \| Full-Time

About Majid Developments

  • Majid Developments is a fast-growing boutique real estate developer headquartered in Dubai, with an active portfolio of residential projects across Jumeirah Garden City and Dubai Land Residence Complex. Known for our execution-first approach, design-led product, and fully furnished delivery standard, we are building one of Dubai's most distinctive mid-market luxury brands — one project at a time.
  • With Mayfair Gardens under construction, Arlington Park breaking ground, and a landmark new project in the pipeline, we are expanding our internal team to match our growth.

The Role

  • We are looking for an experienced, hands-on Developer-Side Project Manager to own the full lifecycle of our construction projects on behalf of Majid Developments. You will be our eyes, ears, and voice on every project — ensuring our contractor, consultant, and all third parties are aligned, accountable, and delivering to our standards.
  • This is not a site-based contractor role. You represent the developer's interests at every stage — from pre-construction coordination through to handover and snagging — and you report directly to the CEO and COO.

What You Will Own

  • Full oversight of active construction projects on behalf of Majid Developments, acting as the primary point of contact between the developer, contractor, and consultant
  • Review and challenge contractor and consultant programmes, ensuring milestones are realistic, tracked, and met
  • Attend all site meetings, technical meetings, and design coordination meetings and follow up relentlessly on actions
  • Monitor construction progress against approved drawings, specifications, and quality benchmarks escalating deviations immediately
  • Manage the procurement timeline for developer-supplied items FF&E, furnishings, wall panels, curtains, fit-out materials ensuring items are specified, ordered, and on site when needed
  • Review and interrogate payment certificates, variation orders, and contractor claims before they reach the CEO for approval
  • Track project budgets and flag cost risks early before they become problems
  • Coordinate between the main contractor, shoring contractor, MEP subcontractors, fit-out teams, and any specialist consultants
  • Maintain a live project dashboard programme, budget, open issues, risks updated weekly and presented to the leadership team
  • Lead snagging and handover coordination, ensuring units meet Majid Developments' delivery standard before keys are released to buyers
  • Liaise with the master developer, DLD, and relevant authorities on approvals, NOCs, and compliance requirements as needed

What We Are Looking For

  • 6 to 12 years of experience in construction project management, with a minimum of 3 years on the developer or client side in the UAE
  • Degree in Civil Engineering, Architecture, Construction Management, or a related field
  • Strong understanding of UAE construction contracts (FIDIC preferred), consultant agreements, and developer-contractor dynamics
  • Proven ability to read and interrogate drawings, specifications, programmes (Primavera P6 or MS Project), and payment applications
  • Experience managing mid-rise residential or mixed-use projects in Dubai from pre-construction through to handover
  • Excellent coordination and communication skills you will be managing relationships with contractors, consultants, authorities, and the Majid leadership team simultaneously
  • Detail-oriented but commercially aware you understand that quality, cost, and programme are all your problem
  • Fluent in English; Arabic or Urdu is an advantage

What Makes This Role Different

  • You will work directly with the CEO and COO no corporate layers, no bureaucracy
  • You will have real ownership and accountability, not just a coordination function
  • You will be joining at a pivotal moment in the company's growth with multiple projects active simultaneously and a significant new launch pipeline ahead
  • Majid Developments operates lean and moves fast this is a role for someone who thrives on ownership, not process

To Apply

  • Send your CV and a brief note on a project you have personally delivered what it was, your role, and what you are most proud of to careers@majiddevelopments.com
  • Applications without the project note will not be reviewed.
  • Majid Developments is an equal opportunity employer.
  • We welcome applicants from all backgrounds.
