Early Careers

Starting your career is about more than landing your first job. It’s about getting stuck in, learning from people around you and building the skills and experience that will set you up for the future.

At Omnium, you’ll work alongside experienced Quantity Surveyors, Project Managers and other construction professionals, getting involved in real projects from the start. You’ll have the chance to learn from people who know the industry, take on responsibility as you develop and see first-hand how some of the UAE, Saudi Arabia and wider region’s biggest projects come together.

Whether you’re a graduate, undergraduate or school leaver, we’ll give you the support and experience you need to get started in Quantity Surveying, Project Management or another career within construction.

You’ll have opportunities to work towards professional qualifications, build your experience and progress your career with us.

And as Omnium continues to grow, there’ll be plenty of opportunities to grow with us too!

Work internationally

At Omnium, you’ll have the chance to work on projects with an international outlook from early in your career. Our teams work across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, the UK and beyond, giving you exposure to different markets, clients and ways of working.

As you gain experience, there are opportunities to get involved in international projects, work with colleagues in different offices and, where the opportunity arises, take your career to a new location.

It’s a chance to broaden your experience, build an international network and see where a career in construction can take you.

From day one, you’ll work alongside experienced Quantity Surveyors, Project Managers and other construction professionals who can help you learn, build your confidence and develop your career.

You’ll get plenty of opportunities to learn on the job, take on more responsibility and work towards professional qualifications. With support from experienced mentors and our RICS-accredited assessors, you’ll have people around you to guide you along the way.

As you gain experience, you’ll build the technical, commercial and project skills you need to progress — whether that’s towards becoming a Chartered Quantity Surveyor, an experienced Project Manager or wherever your career takes you.

Health & wellbeing Icon

Health & wellbeing

We know there’s more to life than work. Starting your career is important, but so are your friends, family, interests and everything you enjoy outside the office.

We want you to do well at work without feeling like work has to take over. Flexible working, wellbeing initiatives and regular sports and social activities give you the chance to build a career while making the most of life outside it.

Supportive Culture Icon

Supportive culture

Starting out can be daunting, especially when you’re new to the industry. At Omnium, you won’t be expected to figure everything out on your own. You’ll be part of a team where people are happy to share their experience, answer questions and help you find your feet.

You’ll work alongside people at different stages of their careers and from different backgrounds and disciplines. That means plenty of opportunities to learn from others, share your ideas and build relationships along the way.

You won’t know everything when you start. That’s the point. We’re here to help you learn!

Build your future Icon

Build your future

At Omnium, you’ll have the chance to work across different projects, clients and sectors as you build your experience. As you develop, you can take on more responsibility, work towards professional qualifications and progress into more senior roles.

And because we work across different markets and locations, there are opportunities to broaden your experience and take your career in a different direction as you grow.
