Questions applicants ask
Do I need experience?
Yes — three or more years running a camp or accommodation facility for an industrial workforce. Hotel or hospitality supervision is a good background.
Which certificates do I need?
No single certificate is mandatory; food-safety training and fire-warden training are expected, and audit experience matters most.
Iqama, transfer and visa
Camp bosses with a transferable Iqama first. The role needs Arabic and English, and a language spoken by the crews is a strong advantage.
Hours and shifts
Camp management is a live-in or nearby role with regular hours and on-call cover for the camp's 24-hour operation.
Where would I live in Dammam?
Crews are housed in AKFAL accommodation in Jubail or Dammam depending on the contract, with daily transport.
