Industrial jobs in Ras Al Khair

The mining and minerals city north of Jubail — Ma'aden's phosphate and aluminium complexes and a growing shipyard.

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.

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.
