Considered as the one the leading law firms in the Middle East our clients Construction and Infrastructure Practice specialises in all aspects of construction and infrastructure law, acting for government, employers, contractors, facility managers, developers, consultants and other industry participants throughout the region and further afield. In response to increased market share and internal re-organisation/retirement, they now seek a specialist senior construction lawyer to head their team and drive the continued development of the practice, going forward.

- Tender and project documentation
- Contract administration assistance and advice
- Strategic project planning and risk management strategies
- Claims preparation and assistance
- Dispute services, including dispute boards, expert determination, mediation, conciliation, arbitration and litigation
Regional expertise will be beneficial, though not absolutely necessary depending on individual pedigree, while it is important that the incumbent will be a dynamic leader with significant market reputation and track record in business generation who is committed to remaining in the U.A.E. for the long-term.
The group is extremely collegiate and places real value on personal interaction and mutual respect, fostering a team environment that permeates throughout the practice, ultimately suiting those who are looking for a modern, progressive private practice environment.
Financially the package on offer will be reflective of the importance of this hire to the firm.
