Working in Ras Al Khair

Ras Al Khair, 80 km north of Jubail, is Ma'aden's industrial city: phosphate and ammonia plants, the aluminium smelter and rolling mill, the desalination and power complex and the shipyard. It is heavy industry with long maintenance campaigns and a steady need for mechanical, electrical and rigging trades. AKFAL crews commute from the Jubail camp.

Plants and projects

  • Ma'aden Phosphate and Ma'aden Wa'ad Al Shamal (ammonia, phosphoric acid, DAP)
  • Ma'aden Aluminium smelter, rolling mill and casthouse
  • Ras Al Khair power and desalination complex (SWCC)
  • International Maritime Industries shipyard
  • Port and bulk-handling terminals

Typical work

  • Planned maintenance on kilns, mills and conveyors
  • Electrical and instrumentation maintenance in the smelter
  • Structural and piping repairs; heavy rigging
  • Crane and telehandler hire for maintenance campaigns
When demand peaks
Ma'aden's maintenance campaigns run through the year with larger turnarounds in the cooler months; demand is steadier than in Jubail's shutdown peaks.
Accommodation and transport
Crews are housed in the AKFAL camp near Jubail and travel by company bus, about an hour each way; site camps are used on longer campaigns.

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 Ras Al Khair?

Crews are housed in the AKFAL camp near Jubail and travel by company bus, about an hour each way; site camps are used on longer campaigns.
