Job description

1. Overview of Company and Role

PH World Property Division is a dynamic, forward-thinking property developer and builder based in Johor. We operate as a key division of the PH World Group, an established diversified business group. Built on a deep-rooted legacy, PH World has established a strong reputation as an award-winning developer. To ensure quality, reliability, and excellence from concept to completion, our Property Division seamlessly integrates three main core pillars:

Property Development: Master-planning and developing premier residential and commercial projects across Johor defined by unique and modern design.

Construction: Bringing unique, modern architectural designs to life through precision building execution, advanced site infrastructure, and structural excellence.

Material Trading: Managing direct supply chains and sourcing high-grade materials to maintain total quality control.

Our Philosophy — Art

• Nature
• People

At the heart of everything we build is a commitment to creating meaningful, long-lasting spaces:

• Art: Architectural design driven by aesthetic elegance and purposeful detail.
• Nature: Sustainable environments seamlessly integrated with lush green living.
• People: Thoughtfully crafted spaces built to bring families, businesses, and communities together.

We are seeking a highly driven, hands-on, and site-based Site Engineer to spearhead our construction operations directly on-site in Johor. In this critical, site-centered management role, you will be the driving force on the ground, responsible for managing the day-to-day physical execution of our developments from earthworks to final handover. You will spend your time where the action happens—leading site supervisors, enforcing safety protocols, coordinating main contractors, and solving complex technical structural or infrastructure issues in real-time.

If you are a field-tested leader who thrives on the physical progress of a construction site, commands authority on the ground, and ensures that building quality and project timelines are met flawlessly, this role is for you.

2. What We Offer

• Dynamic, challenging work rewarded with competitive salary & performance bonus!
• Comprehensive benefits package including health insurance and allowances
• Ongoing professional development and training opportunities
• Clear career progression pathways within the organisation
• Supportive and collaborative team culture

3. Key Responsibilities

Technical Execution

Interpret blueprints (architectural, structural, MEP) and conduct site surveying to establish accurate layouts. Manage complex construction tasks, resolve design clashes early, and ensure crews use only the latest approved drawings.

Quality Control (QA/QC)

Conduct regular inspections of workmanship, formwork, and reinforcement. Inspect incoming materials, oversee compliance testing (e.g., concrete slump/cube tests), and manage Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs) to fix defects promptly.

Resource and Schedule Management

Coordinate the timely delivery of materials (steel, cement) and heavy machinery while minimizing waste. Track progress against the master schedule, manage labor allocation, and create recovery plans for any delays.

Documentation & Reporting

Maintain daily site logs (weather, manpower, material usage) and submit regular progress updates to the Project Manager. Handle Requests for Information (RFIs) and assist with as-built drawings and final handover files.

Safety & Compliance

Enforce site safety rules and full compliance with local building codes and environmental regulations.

4. Requirements

Must-Have

• Bachelor’s Degree or Diploma in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, Building, or a related field.
• Minimum 3 to 5 years of active, hands-on site experience within the building construction, civil works, or infrastructure sector. Proven track record of managing daily ground operations, supervising main contractors and specialized trades, and successfully delivering project milestones under tight schedules.

Good-to-Have

• Specific experience supervising earthworks, infrastructure works, and structural phases for large-scale landed residential housing or township master plans.
• Professional site safety certifications (e.g., NIOSH, CIDB Green Card, OSH background) are highly advantageous.
• Established local contacts with reliable sub-contractors, machinery suppliers, and site materials providers.
