Safety Officer, Permit Receiver and Fire Watch
Saudi Arabia’s petrochemical and industrial sector continues to create opportunities for experienced safety and permit-to-work professionals who understand the requirements of major industrial facilities. An urgent recruitment drive dated 20 September 2026 is seeking Safety Officers, Permit Receivers, and Fire Watch/Standby Men for a six-month assignment at Yanpet in Yanbu. All three categories require previous SABIC experience, making this opportunity particularly relevant to candidates who have worked in comparable industrial environments and can provide the required documentation.
Understanding the Available Positions
Safety Officers help maintain safe working conditions by monitoring site activities, identifying hazards, and supporting compliance with established safety procedures. Permit Receivers are involved in the permit-to-work system and help ensure that authorized activities are conducted under the correct conditions. Fire Watch and Standby Man personnel provide dedicated safety support during potentially hazardous work, remaining alert to fire risks and other unsafe conditions. Together, these roles help project teams maintain controlled and organized operations within an industrial facility.
Responsibilities on the Worksite
A Safety Officer may conduct workplace observations, communicate hazards, support toolbox meetings, and monitor whether workers are following required safety practices. A Permit Receiver generally coordinates with supervisors and work crews regarding approved permits, checks applicable conditions, and helps ensure work stays within the authorized scope. Fire Watch or Standby Man personnel monitor designated work areas, particularly during activities where fire or other hazards may arise, and immediately report unsafe conditions. Specific responsibilities will depend on the project assignment and site procedures.
Experience, Skills and Eligibility
Candidates applying for these vacancies should have relevant industrial experience, with SABIC experience specifically required for all three categories. Safety Officers should understand workplace safety practices, Permit Receivers should be familiar with permit-to-work procedures, and Fire Watch/Standby candidates should understand basic fire prevention and site safety requirements. The listed documentation includes Iqama, Muqeem, Vendor Code, Passport Copy, Medical, and CR Copy. Applicants should ensure their documents and previous project experience can be verified before applying.
