I am writing to express my strong interest in this job . As a PMP®-Certified Contracts & Procurement Engineer with 15 years of combined experience in civil engineering, project management, and contracts/procurement administration across Egypt, Libya, and Saudi Arabia, I am confident that my technical background and contractual expertise make me a strong fit for your team.
In my current role as Contracts & Procurement Engineer at Construction Pillars Company (part of Saad Al-Eissa Group / Emkan Al-Qabidhah Holding), I manage the full subcontracting cycle for infrastructure, building, and MEP projects — from defining subcontract packages and evaluating technical and commercial bids, to reviewing client contracts under FIDIC conditions and highlighting critical clauses and contractual risks to project management. I also prepare BOQs, tender documents, and cost estimates, monitor budgets and payment certificates, and support claims preparation and contractual correspondence.
Earlier in my career, I served as Project Manager for major road and infrastructure projects, including a 28 km highway segment in Libya (LYD 74 million) and a 7 km urban corridor in Mokattam, Egypt (EGP 800 million), as well as site civil engineering roles on projects valued up to EGP 1 billion under the Armed Forces Engineering Authority. This hands-on delivery experience, combined with my FIDIC Contracts Practitioner (FCP) and FIDIC Contracts Specialist (FCS) accreditations, gives me a well-rounded perspective on both the engineering and contractual sides of large-scale infrastructure delivery.
I am particularly drawn to []Company Name] because of []reason — e.g., its reputation in infrastructure delivery / its current project portfolio / its regional presence]. I am confident that my combination of technical, contractual, and project management expertise would allow me to contribute effectively to your projects from day one.
I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my background aligns with your needs. Thank you for considering my application — I look forward to the possibility of speaking with you.
Sincerely,
Mohamed Abdel-Rahman El-Gzar,
PMP®, FCP®, FCS®
