Jaber & Partners Construction & Energy

We are Jaber & Partners, and you can find us at 138 Dil Bagh Nagar here in Dubai. Construction and energy are what we do, but we aren't one of those massive firms with a whole skyscraper to ourselves. Our office is a lot more modest than that. We are located in a part of the city that feels a bit more lived-in, away from the main tourist spots. It’s a place where we can actually get things done without too much fuss. The team is a mix of people who have been in the UAE for years. We spend a lot of our time out on-site, so the office is often quiet during the day. When we are all in, it’s a lot of talk about projects and looking over plans. The heat can be something else, so we make sure the AC is always running. We aren't big on marketing ourselves with glossy photos. We just let the work we do speak for itself. It’s a busy life, and there's always a deadline looming, but we manage. The coffee pot is always on and the desks are usually covered in drawings. The Dil Bagh Nagar area has its own charm, even if it's not what people imagine when they think of Dubai. There are plenty of small shops nearby where we get our lunch. We’ve been here at 138 for a while and have a good relationship with the landlord. Sometimes the traffic in the morning is a bit of a nightmare, and that's just part of life here in the Uae.
