Careers

We're hiring the people who do the work.

Drywall and ceiling fixers, finishers, carpenters, painters and foremen. If you take pride in the finish and you turn up ready, we want to talk — and we run our jobs so you can do the work properly and get paid right for it.

Why EDM

What's actually different here.

Most of what makes a job worth staying in is simple, and most of it gets ignored. Here is what we get right.

You get paid right, and on time

No chasing, no surprises at the end of the month. The one thing most sites get wrong, we get right — every time.

Sites that are actually run

Materials ordered against the drawings, access sorted, a clear sequence. You are working, not standing around waiting on someone else.

Work you won't have to redo

We check as we go, so you are not pulling down good work because someone upstream got it wrong. Right first time is how we run it.

Treated like a tradesman, not a number

You have earned your trade with your hands. We listen to the people who know the work, and we back them.

Safety that's real

Every job planned and briefed, proper PPE, a clean site. We want you going home the same way you came in.

A real route up

Fixer to leading hand to foreman. If you want to run work, we will give you the chance to show it.

Open roles

Who we're hiring.

We take on skilled trades across the whole interior package. If your trade is below, send your details — we are always glad to hear from good people.

Drywall & partition installers

Metal stud and shaft-wall fixers who set out true and build to the detail. You can read a drawing and work to line and level.

Ceiling fixers

MF, suspended grid and feature ceilings, set flat and to the reflected ceiling plan. Grid and plasterboard experience.

Tapers & finishers

Jointing and finishing to a clean, flat finish. The surface is yours, and you take it personally.

Carpenters & joiners

First and second fix, plus bespoke joinery install. Accurate, tidy, and good with a scribe.

Painters & decorators

Preparation done properly and a clean finish under daylight. You know the prep is the job.

Timber & cladding fixers

Veneer, slatted and feature timber, set out so the finish reads as one piece.

Foremen & leading hands

Trades who can run a section or a floor — sequence the work, manage the gang, and hold the programme and the standard.

What we look for

The things that matter to us.

Pride in the finish

You would rather it was right than rushed, and you can see the difference.

Reliability

You turn up, and you turn up consistently. We build our programmes around people we can count on.

You can read the job

Drawings, setting-out and levels — you work from the information, not just instinct.

Clean and safe

A tidy operative is a safe and productive one. It is a habit, not an afterthought.

You want to get better

The people who go furthest here are the ones who keep sharpening their trade.

How it works

Four steps, no messing about.

01

Send your details

Fill in the form below, or email careers@edmholdings.ae. Tell us your trade and where you have worked.

02

We call you

A real conversation about your experience and what you are after. No bots, no endless forms.

03

Show us your work

A short trade test or a day on site. We want to see your hands, and you get to see how we run a job.

04

Start

You start with the tools, materials and drawings to do the work properly. We sort the paperwork around you.

Our commitment

What you can expect from us.

Paid correctly, on time

Every time. We would rather be judged on this than on anything we could say.

Steady work

A real pipeline of projects, so good people are not hired for one job and let go.

Your time respected

Sites run so you are doing your trade, not waiting on someone else's.

The kit to do it right

Proper PPE, the right access, and good materials to work with.

Recognition and a route up

Good work gets noticed, and there is a clear path to leading hand and foreman.

Straight talk on pay

We will talk through pay and the practicalities when we speak — no games.

Questions

Questions, answered straight.

Do you pay on time?
Yes. Paying our people correctly and on time is not negotiable here — it is the first thing we would want you to judge us on, because it is the thing most sites get wrong.
What trades are you hiring?
Drywall and partition installers, ceiling fixers, tapers and finishers, carpenters and joiners, painters and decorators, timber and cladding fixers, and foremen who can run a section. If your trade sits in the interior package, get in touch.
Do I need to be in Dubai already?
Our work is Dubai-based and we hire across the UAE. If you are already here and able to work, that is simplest. Tell us your situation and we will be straight with you about what is possible.
Do I need to be able to read drawings?
For most trades, yes — you will be setting out and working to levels off the drawings. If you are strong on the tools but newer to drawings, say so; the right attitude and a willingness to learn count for a lot.
What is the hiring process?
Send your details, we call you for a real conversation, you show us your work on a short trade test or a day on site, and then you start. No endless forms, no messing about.
Do you take on less experienced workers or apprentices?
Our priority is skilled, experienced trades. That said, we will always look at someone reliable and keen who wants to learn under good people, so it is worth telling us where you are.
How do I apply?
Fill in the form on this page, or email careers@edmholdings.ae with your trade and experience. A real person reads every application.
What should I send?
Your trade, how long you have done it, where you have worked, and a CV if you have one. A photo or two of your finished work never hurts.
