➤ Why this role matters
Contract administration is no longer a support function, it’s a strategic edge. In an era of multi-billion-dollar construction projects and razor-thin margins, the ability to interpret, execute, and defend contracts is mission-critical.

At Construction Management Associates (CMA), we’ve built our reputation by delivering exceptional contract administration services across the MENA region since 1999. Our clients include some of the region’s largest and most complex clients, the kind where poor contract execution isn’t just costly, it’s catastrophic.

And yet, world-class contract administrators with real construction experience are in short supply.

This is where you come in. If you’re fluent in both the legal logic of contracts and the real-world messiness of construction, this role puts you at the heart of the action, where impact isn’t theoretical. It’s measurable.

➤ When contracts go wrong: the cost of poor administration
For three consecutive years, poor contract administration has ranked among the top causes of construction disputes. When contracts fail, projects derail and reputations suffer. Our approach prevents that. We embed world-class contract administration into high-value projects to ensure obligations are met, risks are neutralized, and value is protected from day one. This is high-stakes, high-discipline work, and we only hire those who treat it as such.

➤ What you’ll do
You’ll contribute to the contract lifecycle, from pre-construction planning through execution to final closeout. This means ensuring the contract is not just a static document, but a living framework that guides every commercial and operational decision. You’ll safeguard the client’s interests at every stage, proactively identifying risks, enforcing obligations, and ensuring that both the letter and the intent of the contract are honored, not occasionally, but consistently. Your role is to make sure nothing slips through the cracks, no matter how small, and that the contract remains a source of clarity, control, and leverage throughout the life of the project.

➤ Key responsibilities
Draft and respond to contractual correspondence with clarity, accuracy, and strategic intent
Interpret and enforce contract terms, obligations, and deliverables
Manage execution, timelines, milestones, and commercial closeouts
Identify and flag risks early and drive mitigation proactively
Lead the preparation of quantum claims, extensions of time (analysis of construction delays, delay analysis using recognized techniques e.g. Impacted-as-Planned, Time Impact Analysis, As-built Based Methods of Analysis), and variation orders (entitlement and assessment)
Maintain airtight documentation, records, and correspondence
Act as the connective tissue between legal, commercial, and technical teams
Defend the client’s position in disputes, with facts, precision, and authority

➤ We look for three things
First, we look for people with a desire to be the best in the world at what they do.

Second, we look for people who have repeatedly been able to solve difficult problems.

Third, we look for people who have a collaborative spirit to build new things together as a team.

➤ This role will be available in January 2026. Please consider applying today.

➤ Background
At Construction Management Associates (CMA), we are working to accelerate building the world’s $100 trillion of sustainable new infrastructure. We believe much of this will be delivered through Public–Private Partnerships (PPPs). It’s the most effective model for combining the innovation and efficiency of the private sector with the reach and scale of the public sector. In the MENA region, PPPs are rapidly emerging as a preferred mechanism to fast-track $4 trillion in infrastructure investments — from transportation and utilities to digital and social infrastructure.

➤ Why this role matters
Building a successful PPP business requires people who can bridge the gap between the public and private sectors and understand both the strategic objectives of governments and the innovation drivers of industry.

This role is for those who see infrastructure not just as projects, but as platforms for transformation, and who want to play a direct role in shaping how cities, economies, and communities grow.

➤ Role
The Business Development and Government Relations Associate supports the company’s engagement with government entities, regulators, and public-sector partners involved in public–private partnership (PPP) projects. The role focuses on facilitating communication, monitoring policy and regulatory developments, and helping shape strategic relationships that enable the successful design, negotiation, and delivery of PPP initiatives across target markets.

➤ Your skills
We’re looking for someone who is both strategic and creative — someone who can translate complex ideas into clear, persuasive narratives that open doors and inspire action.

• 3-5 years of experience working with the public sector

• Mastery in the art of storytelling

• Succinct communicator and able to distill complex issues into sharp, clear insights

• Prolific writer with a strong grasp of tone, structure, and audience

• Instinctive communicator who knows how to connect through clarity, not volume

• Master networker who is comfortable engaging senior officials, advisors, and investors

• Deep curiosity about infrastructure, construction, AI software, partnerships, and public policy

➤ What you’ll work on
You’ll support our engagement with government entities, regulators, and public-sector partners involved in public–private partnership (PPP) projects. The role focuses on facilitating communication, monitoring policy and regulatory developments, and helping shape strategic relationships that enable the successful design, negotiation, and delivery of PPP initiatives across target markets.

• Build and maintain relationships with government agencies, PPP units, and public authorities across the MENA region.

• Support the preparation of unsolicited and solicited PPP proposals, including research, outreach, and coordination with internal teams.

• Track and analyze PPP frameworks, infrastructure policies, and regulatory developments in target markets.

• Prepare briefing notes, presentations, and talking points for senior leadership engagements.

• Identify and engage potential private-sector partners and investors.

• Contribute to CMA’s thought leadership through reports, articles, and insights on PPP models, policy trends, and infrastructure innovation.
