Dispatcher Assistant Job Dammam area,Eastern Province Saudi Arabia,Engineering

We are seeking a CAD Drafter Civil to produce civil drawing output for our Engineering & Consulting department,

The role converts engineer mark-ups, survey data, and design intent into complete, coordinated drawing sets across civil, structural, and architectural scope, and maintains those sets through successive revisions. This is a production-focused individual contributor role without design authority: every deliverable is reviewed and approved by the responsible engineer before issue.

Effective performance depends on disciplined file management, clean revision control, and raising queries in writing rather than making assumptions.

Key Accountabilities

Drawing Production Produce civil, structural, and architectural drawings from engineer sketches, mark-ups, photographs, and survey data. Develop general arrangements, plans, sections, elevations, foundation layouts, and reinforcement details. Prepare site plans, grading, drainage, and external works drawings. Prepare as-built drawings from site measurements supplied by site staff.

Drawing Standards & Coordination Apply the department's title blocks, layering, line weights, annotation styles, and numbering consistently. Cross-check drawings against other disciplines to identify clashes and missing information before issue. Raise written queries with the responsible engineer instead of assuming unclear scope. Update the drawing register and issue sheets in coordination with the Document Controller.

Revision & File Management Maintain strict revision control; archive and clearly mark superseded drawings. Transmit deliverables in the agreed formats and naming conventions, with native and PDF files together. Bind external references and include all blocks and standard details with each issue. Keep working files organised, backed up, and accessible to the department at all times.

Delivery & Communication Confirm scope, priority, and deadline before starting each assignment. Report progress at the agreed frequency and flag delays early. Be available during the agreed overlap with Saudi working hours for same-day clarification. Incorporate review comments promptly and confirm closure of each comment.

Other Perform any other duties reasonably required by the Head of Engineering that are consistent with the scope of this role.
