Technical Office Engineer | EG CORE
Location: Cairo, Egypt (with occasional site visits)
Type: Full-time
About EG CORE
EG CORE For Insulation Materials & Contracting is a specialist contracting company operating across Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Libya. We deliver technical works for industrial, commercial, and infrastructure clients, including:
- Industrial flooring (epoxy, Ucrete/PU, ESD anti-static, cGMP pharmaceutical)
- Waterproofing (polyurea, crystalline, SBS bituminous, polyurethane and acrylic gel injection)
- Concrete repair and shotcrete
- Microtunneling and utility engineering
The Role
You will run the commercial and technical backbone of our projects. The work spans pricing, subcontractor payments, and lead follow-up, so you need to be comfortable moving between a BOQ, a data sheet, and a phone call with a supplier.
Key Responsibilities
- Study tender documents, BOQs, drawings, and specifications, and flag unclear scope, conflicts between documents, and missing information before pricing
- Price projects across our service lines: build clear cost build-ups (material consumption, labor, equipment, margin) and prepare client-ready offers
- Collect and maintain pricing data from suppliers, subcontractors, and the market, and keep our rate database current
- Prepare progress payments (IPCs) for subcontractors: quantity measurements, certification, and follow-through to payment
- Follow up on leads and open offers with clients, consultants, and contractors, and keep the pipeline organized
- Prepare technical submittals, method statements, and branded correspondence
- Visit sites from time to time to measure, inspect, and coordinate with clients and the field team
Requirements
- Based in Cairo
- Own means of transportation (site visits and supplier meetings are part of the job)
- Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering (or a related field)
- 2 to 5 years in a technical office, quantity surveying, or estimating role in contracting
- Strong BOQ reading and pricing ability, including material consumption calculations from technical data sheets
- Broad working knowledge of how construction services are priced in Egypt, or a solid network of suppliers and subcontractors
- Experience preparing subcontractor progress payments and quantity measurements
- Strong Excel skills and professional written English and Arabic
- Organized, detail-focused, and able to manage several offers at once under deadlines
Advantages
- Background in waterproofing, flooring, concrete repair, or specialty contracting
- Existing relationships with material suppliers or specialty subcontractors in Egypt
- Experience with Primavera or other scheduling tools
What We Offer
- Direct exposure to a wide mix of specialty service lines rather than a single trade
- Close work with the founder and a real say in how offers are priced
- Competitive package, with salary and benefits to be discussed with shortlisted candidates
