About This Role

This is a project-based HSE oversight role within one of Ethiopia's largest conglomerates, supporting construction projects from an advisory and compliance standpoint rather than a purely operational one. MIDROC's consulting arm operates across large-scale developments, so the HSE Engineer functions as the technical authority ensuring contractors and site teams meet safety and environmental standards. It suits someone who has spent years on active construction sites and now wants to formalize that experience into a systems-and-audit-focused position.

What the Requirements Say About This Role

The five-year threshold combined with the certification preference signals that MIDROC wants a practitioner who has already internalized safety culture, not someone still learning it on the job. The emphasis on developing and implementing HSE plans suggests the role carries ownership of documentation and procedures, meaning candidates who only executed safety measures without designing them will likely fall short. The contract-based term implies the company staffs per project, so they are looking for someone who can deliver results quickly without a long onboarding runway.

How to Approach This Application

Lead with concrete project examples — the scale of sites you've covered, the types of incidents you've investigated, and measurable outcomes like reduced incident rates or audit scores. Since the role is project-bound, demonstrate that you understand how to adapt HSE frameworks to different site conditions rather than applying a single template. Mention your NEBOSH or IOSH status early, even if incomplete, because it signals commitment to the profession beyond minimum requirements.

Best Fit

Who This Role Suits

Best suited for a mid-to-senior safety professional with hands-on Ethiopian construction site experience who is comfortable with contract terms and project rotations. Competition will be moderate-to-high given MIDROC's reputation, but the two open positions improve your odds if your site experience is well-documented.
