1. HTV Dumper Driver (Heavy Transport Vehicle)

Responsibilities: The HTV Dumper Driver is primarily responsible for safely and efficiently operating heavy dump trucks to transport materials like sand, gravel, soil, and construction waste to and from construction sites. This includes performing pre-trip and post-trip inspections, adhering strictly to traffic laws and site safety regulations, and maintaining the vehicle’s cleanliness and minor mechanical checks. They must coordinate with site supervisors to ensure timely delivery and proper dumping of materials, often under strict deadlines and challenging site conditions. The role requires precision in maneuvering large vehicles in constrained spaces.

Qualifications: Candidates must possess a valid, relevant Heavy Transport Vehicle (HTV) driving license. Although specific educational requirements are not listed, a basic level of literacy is beneficial for understanding site instructions and documentation.

Experience: Applicants should have significant professional experience as a Dumper Driver, particularly in a construction or industrial environment, demonstrating a solid understanding of heavy vehicle operation and site procedures.

Skills Needed: Expert driving skills in heavy-duty vehicles, strong adherence to safety protocols, basic vehicle maintenance knowledge, and good communication skills for coordination with site staff.

2. Gypsum Carpenter

Responsibilities: The Gypsum Carpenter is responsible for the precise cutting, fitting, and installation of gypsum board (drywall) for walls, ceilings, and decorative features in commercial and residential construction projects. Key duties include measuring and marking dimensions, building the metal or wooden framework (furring) that supports the gypsum boards, ensuring all installations are plumb and level, and applying finishing touches like joint compound and sanding. They must interpret blueprints and architectural drawings accurately to deliver a high-quality finished surface ready for painting or further decoration.

Qualifications: Formal or informal vocational training in carpentry, specifically focusing on gypsum or drywall installation, is highly desirable. Candidates should possess the ability to read and understand basic construction plans.

Experience: Proven experience in gypsum carpentry or drywall installation is required, with a portfolio of work demonstrating proficiency in both standard and complex applications (e.g., curved walls, suspended ceilings).

Skills Needed: Precision measuring and cutting, ability to read drawings, knowledge of different jointing and finishing techniques, physical stamina, and a keen eye for detail and quality craftsmanship.

3. Mobile Crane Operator

Responsibilities: The Mobile Crane Operator is tasked with operating mobile hydraulic cranes safely and efficiently to lift, move, and position heavy machinery, materials, and equipment on construction sites. This includes calculating load weights, checking rigging and lifting gear, setting up the crane (leveling and stabilizing), and meticulously following signals from the rigger/signal person. They are responsible for daily crane inspection, logging operational hours, and reporting any defects. The job demands extreme focus on safety to prevent accidents involving heavy loads and high heights.

Qualifications: A valid Mobile Crane Operator license and certification are essential. Candidates must demonstrate proficiency in load chart interpretation and safe operating practices. Specific educational requirements are N/A, but specialized training is mandatory.

Experience: Extensive experience operating various types of mobile cranes in diverse construction environments is required. Preference will be given to candidates with experience in a Middle Eastern construction context.

Skills Needed: Expert knowledge of crane mechanics and operation, excellent hand-eye coordination, ability to work at heights, strong risk assessment and safety orientation, and effective communication with the rigging crew.

4. Mason

Responsibilities: A Mason’s primary duty is to lay bricks, concrete blocks, stone, and other masonry materials to construct or repair walls, partitions, and other structures. This involves mixing mortar, spreading it evenly, laying units using a trowel, ensuring alignment with string lines, and tooling the joints for a professional finish. Masons must be skilled in reading blueprints, calculating material needs, and working according to structural specifications, adhering to quality and safety standards throughout the construction process.

Qualifications: Practical training or apprenticeship in masonry work is expected. While formal academic qualifications are N/A, competence in measurement and basic arithmetic is necessary.

Experience: Several years of hands-on experience as a Mason, with the ability to perform various types of masonry work (e.g., blockwork, plastering, tiling) with high proficiency.

Skills Needed: Expertise in laying techniques, ability to mix and apply mortar/concrete, proficiency with masonry tools, physical strength, and attention to detail for precision and structural integrity.

Q: Do I need to have a specific educational degree for these jobs?

ANS: No specific formal academic degree (like F.A. or B.A.) is explicitly mentioned as required in the advertisement. The primary requirement for these positions is a high level of practical skill and vocational competence in the respective trade (driving, crane operation, carpentry, or masonry). For the driving and operator roles, a valid professional license is mandatory. For the technical roles like Gypsum Carpenter and Mason, the company emphasizes skill, even offering free training to some applicants, suggesting that demonstrable skill is more important than a formal education certificate.

Q: Is the Mobile Crane Operator position different from the HTV Dumper Driver, and what is the key requirement?

ANS: Yes, they are entirely different jobs. The HTV Dumper Driver operates a large truck for transporting bulk materials, requiring a heavy vehicle driving license. The Mobile Crane Operator uses specialized machinery to lift and move heavy loads vertically and horizontally on a construction site, requiring a specific and higher-level Crane Operator license and extensive training in load charts and safety. The key requirement for both is the possession of a valid, relevant professional license and substantial operating experience.

Q: Is there any cost to the applicant for the training mentioned for Carpenters and Masons?

ANS: The advertisement explicitly states “free training” (“free training mahal hai”) for Gypsum Carpenter and Mason. This means the First Group or its recruitment partner will cover the training costs for selected candidates who may need skill refinement or orientation to the company’s standards. This is a significant benefit, as it removes a potential financial barrier for skilled but perhaps slightly less experienced workers.

Q: What are the terms for accommodation and living expenses?

ANS: The advertisement clearly states “free rehaish di jaigi” (free accommodation will be provided). This is a standard and highly valued benefit in Middle East contracts, as it removes the major cost of housing from the employee’s expenses. While free accommodation is provided, the employee is generally responsible for their own food costs, though some companies may offer a small food allowance or subsidized meals on site.

Q: I cannot attend the walk-in interviews. Can I apply online or send my CV via email?

ANS: The advertisement is structured entirely around Walk-in Interviews on November 24, 25, and 26, 2025, which strongly suggests that in-person application and immediate trade testing are the mandatory primary recruitment method. However, the contact details include a mobile number (0302-4552416) that is mentioned in the section about submitting a CV. While it’s advisable to attend in person, you can certainly send your CV as a PDF to that number (likely via WhatsApp) as a pre-emptive measure or if you absolutely cannot attend, though this may not be considered a formal application without the interview.

Q: Will the recruitment agency charge a fee for this job?

ANS: Recruitment agency charges (or service charges) are a factor in overseas employment. While the advertisement promotes free training and accommodation, it does not explicitly state that the entire recruitment process is free of charge. Applicants should inquire about all charges (such as Protector of Emigrants fees, medical fees, and agent service charges) from the recruitment agency before signing any contract, and they should receive a detailed breakdown of all associated legal costs.

Q: Is prior experience in Kuwait or the Middle East necessary to be considered for these roles?

ANS: While prior experience in the Middle East is often preferred by employers as it indicates familiarity with the work environment, climate, and local safety standards, it is not explicitly listed as a mandatory requirement. The emphasis is on having substantial, proven professional experience in the respective field and, critically, having the necessary licenses. Candidates from Pakistan with strong skills and relevant licenses stand a good chance of selection regardless of their international work history.
