We’re making maintenance sexy. Come run the engine room. Maintenance has always been the industry nobody thought about — slow, faceless, forgettable. We’re changing that: a premium service built for the UAE’s finest villa communities, where speed, precision and personal service are the standard, not the exception. We operate on the ground, embedded within the exclusive estates we serve — across three communities, and scaling fast.<br>The opportunity Our promise to clients is speed and precision: teams based inside the estates they serve, responding in minutes, arriving with the right part in hand. That promise lives or dies in the engine room — the materials, the stores, the van stock and the fleet behind every single visit. In a company scaling community by community, the person who runs supply controls a serious share of the margin, and of the reputation. That’s the role. You’ll run the entire supply side of the company — buying every part and material at the right price, keeping every store and van stocked to the number, keeping every vehicle earning and every dirham documented and defensible.<br>What you’ll be doing· Own procurement end to end — source, compare, negotiate and buy all materials, parts, tools and consumables; build trade accounts and terms with a preferred-supplier network· Run the stores and every van stock — min/max levels, cycle counts, named accountability per van; a technician never waits on a part· Run the fleet — registration, insurance, servicing, repairs, fines and replacement planning; every van earning, every document valid· Control the spend — purchase orders on everything, goods-received checks against every invoice, and a weekly spend report to the founder· Kit the teams — parts, tools, uniforms and standard van loadouts, with a same-day answer to every parts request· Open new communities — store stocked, vans kitted, supplier accounts live before day one, on a checklist you wrote· Hunt the better deal — track unit costs, re-tender the big categories, and report the savings monthly<br>About you· 3–5+ years in procurement, stores/inventory or supply for maintenance, MEP, facilities or construction in the UAE — you know what things should cost and where to get them· You know the Dubai trade market — the wholesalers, the trade counters, the suppliers who deliver at 7am and the ones who don’t· Ruthlessly organised — your stock counts match reality, your records answer questions before they’re asked, and nothing expires on your watch· An owner, not a passenger — you chase the part, the supplier and the van yourself; nobody reminds you, and “the supplier let us down” is not in your vocabulary· A negotiator by instinct — three quotes is a habit, terms matter as much as price, and you treat company money like your own· Valid UAE driving licence — you’ll spend real days between suppliers, stores and communities, not behind a desk<br>This role is for you if you take personal pride in a store where everything is where it should be, a fleet where nothing is overdue, and a deal you know nobody else in town would have got — and you want to build that system yourself rather than inherit someone else’s. It’s not for you if you need someone else to keep the records straight, you buy from whoever calls back first, or you’d rather explain a delay than prevent one.<br>What success looks like We’re scaling too fast for a long ramp-up — this role delivers from week one. Within your first 30 days, we’d expect to see every store and van counted and on a system, the big spend categories re-quoted with real savings documented, the fleet tracker live with nothing expired and nothing overdue, purchase orders on every purchase — and technicians who simply stopped thinking about parts, because the part is always there. After that: every new community we open starts stocked, kitted and ready on day one, off your checklist.<br>Why MAINTAINED? Because we believe proximity changes everything. Our teams are based inside the communities they serve — closer to our clients, quicker to respond, present when it matters most. Closeness like that, proven visit after visit, becomes the most valuable thing a service company can earn: trust. And trust is what we’re building on — a client experience so far beyond what this industry has ever offered that it changes how maintenance itself is seen and valued. Industries don’t get reimagined often. This one is being reimagined now — and none of it moves without you. Every response in minutes and every job done right first time starts with a part that was on the shelf, a van that was ready and a price that was bought well. That’s what you’d be running — and the systems you build become the way this company buys, stocks and moves for years. Ready to go beyond? MAINTAINED is an equal opportunity employer. Every application is considered on merit, without attention to race, age, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender, family status or disability.
