The role covers lifting plan approval, crane operator coordination, equipment inspection and day-to-day enforcement of lifting safety rules. Dubai's pipeline of large government-backed infrastructure and aviation projects keeps steady demand for supervisors with LEEA Appointed Person certification and hands-on mobile or crawler crane experience. Main contractors on these projects often move strong lifting supervisors between sites once a project completes, making this a route into longer-term UAE careers rather than a single fixed-term posting.\nCommon questions\n\nWhat does a Lifting Supervisor do in Dubai?\nA Lifting Supervisor plans and oversees all crane and rigging operations on a construction or infrastructure site. This includes checking lifting plans, coordinating with crane operators and engineers, and enforcing site safety rules during every lift.\n\nWhat experience do I need to apply?\nMost employers look for a valid LEEA Appointed Person certification and around 3-5 years supervising lifting or rigging operations on civil, infrastructure or airport projects. Hands-on knowledge of mobile and crawler crane operations, rigging procedures and site HSE standards is expected.\n\nHow do I apply?\nApply directly through this page. A Guildhall consultant reviews every application confidentially and will contact suitable candidates directly.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3378,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":3,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United Arab Emirates","iso":"AE","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-05T10:34:13Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":3,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":0.4,"p_active":0.194,"p_room":0.35,"age_days":58,"expected_fill_days":29,"reasons":["conf:1363","agency","stale_co","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-11-01T06:10:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/guildhall-lifting-supervisor","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/guildhall-lifting-supervisor.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T20:04:26Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":30900,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":109894},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=109894"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fguildhall-lifting-supervisor"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fguildhall-lifting-supervisor"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fguildhall-lifting-supervisor"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/guildhall-lifting-supervisor\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fguildhall-lifting-supervisor"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":242806}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"guildhall.agency","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":242806},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
