In the UAE, the largest employers are oil, gas and petrochemical operators and their contractors, power and water utilities, district cooling providers, manufacturers in industrial zones such as Mussafah, Jebel Ali and Sharjah, and facilities management companies. Automotive dealers and fleet operators recruit mechanics and service advisers, while aviation and marine companies need specialised maintenance engineers.

Employers usually ask for experience in the same type of plant or equipment, knowledge of relevant codes such as ASME and API, and computerised maintenance systems such as SAP PM or Maximo.
