National Contracting Co. Ltd, Saudi Arabia

Our office is located on Amaravathi Street over in Bharat Nagar. It’s a decent spot in Adambakkam, pretty close to everything you need. Even though our name mentions Saudi Arabia, this is where the India-side work happens. It’s a regular house-style office, nothing too flashy or corporate looking. We spend a lot of time on the phone or working through spreadsheets here. The street gets a bit crowded during the day, especially with the bikes parked everywhere. We’ve been in Chennai for a long time, so we’re used to the heat and the fast pace of the city. Most of the staff comes in from nearby areas using the local trains or buses. We handle a lot of the logistical stuff and the back-office tasks for the bigger contracts. It isn't always exciting work, but it needs doing to keep things running. We keep a small kitchen for tea and usually eat lunch together when things aren't too frantic. It’s mostly just keeping track of people and projects in different places. Sometimes the internet acts up, or the power goes for a bit, but we always manage. We aren't trying to be some giant corporate tower; we just do our jobs and go home to our families. If you find yourself at the 5th house on Amaravathi Street, that’s where we are. We just keep our heads down and stay busy with the daily paperwork.
