Construction sales opportunities appear in the Middle East

Construction sales opportunities are appearing in the Middle East, it has been revealed.

While sales recruitment in the UK has been waning in recently following a difficult few months for the sector domestically, a high proportion of UK construction workers are being attracted abroad.

According to the director of Constructionjobs.ie, Paraic Kelly, there is particular demand for construction and engineer professionals in the Middle East and Gulf region.

He told Online Recruitment: "There has been significant growth in the number of job applications for positions in the Middle East and Gulf region states in the past few months."

Mr Kelly also notes that the number of firms going online to recruit in the construction sector also seems to be growing.

Meanwhile, reports suggest that the government's own UK housing construction plans could be taking a backward step.

Persimmon Homes confirmed earlier this year that it was halting its new construction projects, while Barratt and Wimpey have both seen falling trading values.


The Aaron Wallis Construction and M&E sales team offer many construction sales jobs across the sector. For employers Aaron Wallis offer a construction sales recruitment service that offers 12 month rebate and psychometric profiling within a single fixed recruitment price.
