Job description

ALEC FITOUT is looking for an experienced LOTO Coordinator for our project in Ras Al Khaimah.

The ideal candidate must have hands‑on experience managing LOTO procedures, electrical isolation, permit‑to‑work systems, and safe energisation activities within construction or MEP commissioning environments.

We are looking for someone who can confidently enforce LOTO procedures, coordinate with multiple subcontractors, and take ownership of isolation activities on site.

Important: This is a technical LOTO coordination position, not a general HSE or PTW administration role. Applicants must have direct experience in electrical isolation and LOTO implementation.

ALEC Holdings PJSC, part of the Investment Corporation of Dubai (ICD), is a leading GCC construction group with over two decades of success delivering some of the region’s most complex and high‑profile projects. As a publicly listed company, ALEC continues to raise the bar for quality, innovation, and construction excellence, delivering iconic developments that shape skylines across the Middle East.

In the UAE, ALEC has delivered many of the nation’s most recognizable developments, operating as a fully integrated contractor through specialist business units that provide end‑to‑end construction solutions.

At ALEC FITOUT, we bring visionary interiors to life. We specialise in fit‑out and refurbishment projects across hospitality, retail, cultural, and commercial sectors - delivering spaces that are both functional and inspiring. Every detail, from engineering and procurement to craftsmanship, is handled by our in‑house teams to ensure exceptional outcomes on every project.

Why Join Us?

As a LOTO Coordinator, you will play an important role in ensuring the safe isolation, control, and energisation of electrical and MEP systems during construction, testing, and commissioning activities.

You will work closely with construction, commissioning, HSE, and subcontractor teams to ensure that Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) procedures and Electrical Safe Systems of Work are properly implemented and maintained.

This role requires a safety‑focused professional with practical site experience, strong technical coordination skills, and a thorough understanding of electrical isolation and permit‑to‑work requirements.

Experience

• Minimum 5 years of relevant experience in MEP construction, electrical safety, commissioning, or LOTO-related roles.
• Demonstrated experience independently coordinating LOTO activities across multiple subcontractors and work areas.
• Experience enforcing LOTO procedures, addressing non‑compliance and resolving site‑related coordination issues.
• Ability to manage conflicting construction and commissioning activities while maintaining safe isolation controls.

Technical Knowledge

• Strong understanding of electrical isolation principles, hazardous energy control, and safe systems of work.
• Ability to read and interpret electrical Single Line Diagrams (SLDs), load schedules, and equipment identification.
• Knowledge of Lockout/Tagout procedures, permit‑to‑work systems, isolation registers, and energisation controls.
• Good understanding of electrical hazards, risk assessments, and relevant HSE requirements.
• Awareness of applicable electrical safety standards and project‑specific safety procedures.
• Understanding of mechanical and other stored‑energy hazards associated with MEP systems.

Skills and Competencies

• Strong communication and site coordination skills, with the confidence to deal with multiple subcontractors and stakeholders.
• Ability to firmly enforce LOTO procedures and address unsafe practices or non‑compliance on site.
• Experience taking ownership of assigned LOTO activities and resolving day‑to‑day site challenges.
• Ability to coordinate effectively with construction, testing and commissioning, HSE, and subcontractor teams.
• Good judgment in managing conflicting site activities and escalating critical safety concerns when required.
• Ability to work within defined authority matrices and permit approval procedures.
• Strong organizational skills, including maintaining accurate LOTO registers, permits, inspection records, and compliance documentation.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications.

Qualifications

• Degree or diploma in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent relevant experience.
• Relevant training or certification in Lockout/Tagout, Electrical Safety, or Permit‑to‑Work systems is highly desirable.
• Familiarity with NFPA 70E or equivalent applicable electrical safety standards is an advantage.

What We Offer

• Opportunity to work on high‑profile interior fitout projects in the UAE.
• Exposure to multidisciplinary construction, testing, and commissioning activities.
• A collaborative working environment with experienced project and technical teams.
• Career development opportunities within ALEC FITOUT.
• A strong commitment to workplace safety, quality, and operational excellence.
