Hiring Now Open in Saudi Arabia’s Eastern Province

Opportunity Summary
SGK GEN Contracting Co has opened offshore positions tied to an ARAMCO project in the Eastern Province, and the call is for candidates who already hold the right offshore clearances. Offshore work in the Gulf’s oil and gas sector runs on tight safety margins and even tighter documentation requirements, so this listing is aimed squarely at riggers, scaffolding supervisors, and welders who’ve already cleared the paperwork hurdle and are ready to mobilize.
What makes this round of hiring worth a second look is the specificity of it — three welding process related roles, one rigger, one scaffolding supervisor, all under a six-month offshore contract. For tradespeople who’ve invested time and money into getting ARAMCO-approved, this is exactly the kind of opening that puts that investment to work. Industrial jobs in Saudi Arabia move fast when the credentials line up, and offshore assignments in particular don’t stay open long once a contractor starts calling.
What the Job Involves
- Carrying out offshore welding process related (WPR) duties in line with ARAMCO safety and quality standards
- Rigging and lifting operations, including load calculations and safe equipment handling on an offshore platform
- Supervising scaffolding erection, inspection, and dismantling to meet ARAMCO structural safety codes
- Coordinating daily with site supervisors and HSE officers to keep offshore operations compliant and on schedule
- Maintaining accurate work records and reporting any safety observations during the shift
Skills for Success
- Hands-on offshore experience specific to the trade applied for (WPR, rigging, or scaffolding supervision)
- Comfort working at height and in confined or high-risk industrial environments
- Strong communication skills for coordinating with multinational offshore crews
- Physical fitness to handle the demands of extended offshore shifts
- An eye for detail when it comes to safety checks and equipment inspection
Technical Knowledge
Candidates should be familiar with ARAMCO’s offshore safety protocols and the general standards that govern lifting, rigging, and scaffolding work on Gulf platforms. A working understanding of Emergency Offshore Lifeboat (EOLB) procedures is expected, since this certification isn’t just a formality — it’s tied directly to survival training for offshore emergencies. Familiarity with permit-to-work systems and basic hazard identification will also help candidates settle into the role quickly.

Prepare Before Applying
Before reaching out, applicants should gather scanned copies of their valid ARAMCO Offshore Permit Card (with at least six months remaining), EOLB certificate, medical fitness certificate, Iqama, and passport, since these are the documents the employer has asked to see on WhatsApp. Double-check that none of these are close to expiry, as offshore projects rarely have room to wait on renewals mid-mobilization. It’s also worth confirming your trade certificate matches the exact position you’re applying for before sending anything across.
