If you’re an architect with UAE experience and looking for your next role in Abu Dhabi, here’s a solid opportunity. Al Bahri Engineering Consultancy & Interior Design has just announced two open positions at their Abu Dhabi office.
I came across the post shared by Eng. Rameesh Tharakkal and the company’s official LinkedIn page. The firm is actively hiring for Authority Approvals Architect and Design Architect — both requiring 5 years of experience.
Let me break down everything you need to know, from available roles to the application process, in simple bullet points and a clear table.
Available Job Positions & Location
Below is the exact breakdown of roles and location mentioned in the hiring post:
| Job Title | Experience | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Authority Approvals Architect | 5 Years | Abu Dhabi |
| Design Architect | 5 Years | Abu Dhabi |
Both roles require UAE experience specifically, not just any regional work.
Who Can Apply? (Eligibility Criteria)
To be considered for either position, you should meet these requirements:
- Relevant degree or diploma in Architecture or Engineering.
- Minimum 5 years of UAE experience (clearly mentioned).
- Proficiency in industry-standard design software (AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp, etc., depending on the role).
- Strong communication skills (English is essential; Arabic is a plus for approvals role).
- Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
What Each Role Typically Involves
Authority Approvals Architect
- Liaising with Abu Dhabi authorities (DMT, ADM, Civil Defence, etc.).
- Securing building permits, NOCs, and completion certificates.
- Ensuring design compliance with local codes and regulations.
Design Architect
- Creating architectural designs from concept to detailed drawings.
- Coordinating with interior design and engineering teams.
- Using software like Revit, AutoCAD, and 3D modeling tools.
How to Apply (Step by Step)
The submission process is straightforward but specific. Follow these exact steps:
- Prepare your documents – CV + Portfolio (PDF format recommended).
- Write the subject line – Mention the exact position title, e.g., “Design Architect Application” or “Authority Approvals Architect Application”.
- Send to this email –
hr@albahriconsult.com - Wait for a response – Shortlisted candidates will likely hear back within 1–2 weeks.
⚠️ Do not send a generic subject line – they explicitly asked to mention the position.
Important Documents to Attach
Make sure your email includes:
- ✅ Updated CV (highlighting UAE experience).
- ✅ Portfolio (work samples relevant to the role).
- ✅ Copies of degree/diploma (optional but recommended).
- ✅ Any authority approval certificates (for the Approvals Architect role).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Can I apply if I have 4 years of UAE experience?
Probably not. They clearly stated 5 years of UAE experience. You can still try, but expect strict filtering.
2. Is this job onsite or remote?
It’s an Abu Dhabi office-based role (Al Bahri has offices in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, and Dubai – but this hiring is for Abu Dhabi).
3. Can I apply for both positions?
Yes, but send two separate emails with the correct subject line for each role.
4. What’s the deadline?
The post didn’t mention a closing date. It’s best to apply as soon as possible.
5. Is sponsorship available?
Not mentioned. If you need a visa, it’s wise to mention your current visa status in the CV or email body.
Final Tip – Stand Out
The market is competitive. To increase your chances:
- Tailor your portfolio to UAE projects.
- For Authority Approvals role – list which authorities you’ve worked with (e.g., DM, DMT, Sharjah Municipality, etc.).
- For Design Architect – add a link to your Behance or Issuu portfolio in the email body.
Good luck with your application to Al Bahri Engineering Consultancy & Interior Design — and if you know someone who fits, tag or forward this to them.
