Quantity Surveyors Middle East
Hi all
I am MRICS qualified, 20 years experience gained from UK and Australia and took a client side QS role 2 years ago in Saudi. My background by time has been 80% with contractors and I don't mind client or contractor side working. That said, i am looking to move to Dubai and have reservations about working with a main contractor, e.g. do they pay salaries on time etc yet would like to try. Any feedback would be welcome.

Re: Quantity Surveyors Middle East
Many big-name European / US contractors operate in UAE, either directly or in tie-ups with local companies--I would imagine they pay on time. A friend used to work for a Chinese contractor in Dubai, and he was very content with them.
