MBS (Mustafa Mohammed Bin Hassan Al Sheikh Ahmed) has announced an urgent recruitment requirement for construction workers in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The vacancies cover six trades: Plaster Mason, Block Mason, Carpenter, Steel Fixer, Painter, and Helper. A total of 180 positions are available, with 30 vacancies for each category.
These opportunities are intended for candidates who meet the stated documentation requirements and can mobilize for construction work in Riyadh. Applicants should have valid residency and supporting employment documents ready for verification. The listed rates range from SAR 10 to SAR 13, depending on the position. Candidates should confirm the applicable rate basis, project arrangements, and joining schedule directly with the recruitment contact before accepting an offer.
Key Responsibilities
Plaster Masons will generally be expected to apply plaster to walls and ceilings, prepare surfaces, and achieve an even finish according to project requirements.
Block Masons may be responsible for laying concrete blocks or other masonry units, maintaining alignment, and following construction drawings and site specifications.
Carpenters may undertake construction-related carpentry, measure and cut materials, and assist with assembling or installing wooden components and formwork as required.
Steel Fixers typically measure, cut, bend, and position reinforcement bars according to structural requirements and site instructions.
Painters may prepare surfaces, apply suitable coatings, and complete finishing work while maintaining the required quality and cleanliness.
Helpers will support skilled workers, move materials, maintain work areas, and perform general site duties under supervision. Exact duties will depend on the assigned project and employer instructions.
Skills and Knowledge
Applicants should have practical skills relevant to their selected trade. Masonry workers should understand surface preparation, leveling, and alignment. Carpenters and steel fixers should be comfortable using trade tools and following measurements. Painters should understand basic surface preparation and coating application, while helpers should be physically capable of carrying out assigned general duties safely.
All applicants must have a valid Iqama, Muqeem, insurance, and GOSI documentation, as specified in the recruitment notice. Candidates should ensure that their documents are current and that their employment and work authorization arrangements are appropriate for the intended job.
Industry Context
Riyadh continues to support construction, building development, infrastructure, and related site activities. These projects require coordinated teams of skilled tradespeople and general workers to complete structural work, masonry, finishing, and material handling. Reliable attendance, compliance with site safety procedures, teamwork, and the ability to follow supervisors’ instructions are important across all six positions.
Candidates should clarify the project name, employer details, working hours, overtime policy, accommodation and transportation arrangements, and applicable employment conditions before mobilization. The announcement specifies a food allowance rather than a company-provided meal service.
