Almabani CEO Mr Joseph Daher received the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Construction Week Awards Saudi 2025, an honour recognising decades of leadership and contribution to the Kingdom’s construction industry. The award celebrates a career defined by commitment, vision and consistent delivery.

The Construction Week Awards bring together the leading companies and figures in Saudi Arabia’s construction sector to recognise excellence across the industry. The Lifetime Achievement Award is reserved for individuals whose impact has been felt not only within their own organisations but across the wider industry.

Mr Daher’s leadership has guided Almabani through a period of significant growth and transformation. Under his stewardship, the company has strengthened its position as one of the Kingdom’s leading EPC contractors, delivering landmark projects and building a reputation for reliability and technical excellence.

The award is also a recognition of the culture that has been built at Almabani. A strong organisation is the product of many people, and the values of safety, quality and integrity that define Almabani are shared across its workforce.

For the company, the recognition carries wider meaning. It reflects the maturing of Saudi Arabia’s construction industry and the growing confidence in the capability of local contractors to deliver projects of national importance.

Almabani congratulates its CEO on this well-deserved recognition and thanks Construction Week Saudi for the honour. The company remains committed to the principles that have guided its journey — delivering safely, investing in people and contributing to the Kingdom’s development.

As the industry looks ahead to the next phase of Saudi Arabia’s infrastructure ambitions, leadership of this calibre will continue to play a vital role in shaping the future of construction in the Kingdom.

The construction industry has changed dramatically over the course of Mr Daher’s career. Projects have grown in scale and complexity, technology has transformed the way work is planned and delivered, and Saudi companies have taken on an increasingly prominent role on the global stage.

Throughout that evolution, certain principles have remained constant: the importance of safety, the value of integrity and the need to invest in people. These are the values that have guided Almabani’s journey and that continue to shape its culture today.

The recognition also serves as inspiration for the next generation of leaders in the industry. Careers in construction offer the opportunity to build things that last, and the example of leaders like Mr Daher shows what can be achieved through dedication and vision.

Almabani is proud to see its leadership recognised in this way, and the company remains committed to the standards of excellence that the award represents. The work of building the Kingdom’s future continues, guided by the same principles that have earned this recognition.

As the Kingdom’s infrastructure programme enters its next phase, the need for experienced leadership has never been greater. Almabani is determined to keep developing the leaders of tomorrow, ensuring that the industry remains in capable hands for decades to come.

The award is a reminder of how far the company has come, and an inspiration for the journey still ahead as Almabani continues to build the Kingdom’s future.
