About This Role

This is a site-based quality gatekeeper role for a major Ethiopian construction consultancy, where you would be the engineer standing between acceptable and unacceptable workmanship on finishing and fit-out packages. MIDROC Consulting Architects and Engineers operates within the MIDROC Investment Group, so you would be working inside one of the country's largest and most structured corporate environments, likely on high-specification building projects where interior finishes carry visible reputational weight. The contract nature of the post and the need for three hires suggest project-driven demand rather than a permanent establishment position. It suits engineers who are comfortable enforcing standards firmly with contractors and crews who may push back.

What the Requirements Say About This Role

The experience profile being sought is deliberately split: broad civil or construction grounding plus a concentrated specialization in finishing and fit-out inspection, which tells you the employer needs someone who has already made the transition from general site work to the detail-obsessed end of construction. Finishing works are where defects are most visible and hardest to remedy later, so the emphasis on quality control and workmanship monitoring signals they want an inspector who catches problems at the point of installation, not after handover. The professional license requirement and the integrity emphasis suggest this role carries sign-off authority, meaning your judgment will have contractual and financial consequences.

How to Approach This Application

Your CV should make the finishing and fit-out years unmistakable and separate from your general experience — list the specific project types (hotels, offices, residential towers, commercial interiors) and the trades you inspected, such as tiling, plastering, joinery, painting, or MEP fit-out. Be ready to describe concrete situations where you rejected or corrected substandard work and how you handled contractor resistance, because that is the core of what this employer is testing for. Confirm your professional license is current and mention it early, since an expired or missing license is likely a screening disqualifier regardless of experience.

Best Fit

Who This Role Suits

Best suited to engineers with a genuinely inspection-focused track record in building finishes who can hold their ground with contractors and document quality issues precisely; given three openings but a narrow specialization filter, competition will be moderate, with the license and finishing-specific experience doing most of the shortlisting.
