About This Role

This role is about taking full ownership of on-the-ground construction delivery for a real estate company, working through an institute that specializes in leadership and coaching. That means the employer likely values not just technical execution, but also the ability to manage teams, communicate clearly, and drive results under pressure. It suits an experienced civil engineer or project manager who is comfortable coordinating multiple stakeholders and making real-time decisions to keep projects on track in Addis Ababa’s dynamic construction environment.

What the Requirements Say About This Role

The need for a Bachelor’s in Civil Engineering or a related field, paired with five-plus years of experience, signals that the employer expects both formal technical grounding and proven fieldwork. They are looking for someone who has moved beyond pure site supervision into managing budgets, timelines, and contractor relationships. The broad sector tags — from quality assurance to environment and natural resource — hint that the company may value versatility or experience with compliance and sustainability standards.

How to Approach This Application

Focus your application on specific examples of projects you have managed from start to finish, especially those where you kept costs under control and solved unexpected problems on site. Emphasize your ability to coordinate with consultants, suppliers, and contractors in the Ethiopian context, as local market knowledge is likely a priority. Since this is placed through a leadership coaching institute, highlight any experience you have in mentoring junior staff or leading teams — not just managing tasks.

Best Fit

Who This Role Suits
