The job
What a mason does on an overseas contract.
Written from the demand letters our clients actually send us — not a generic description.
Typical duties
- Block and brick laying to line, level and plumb
- Internal and external plastering and rendering
- Floor and wall tiling, including cutting around fixtures
- Steel fixing — cutting, bending and tying reinforcement to the bar bending schedule
- Screeding, grouting and finishing works
- Working safely from scaffold and following site induction rules
The trade test
A timed practical: build a small block wall or lay a tile section, or cut, bend and tie a reinforcement cage from a schedule. Employers judge accuracy and speed together.
Documents that help you
- Experience certificates, or a supervisor reference letter if you have worked informally
- Any safety induction or scaffolding certificates
- Photographs of completed work help for tiling and finishing trades

Questions
Mason jobs abroad — your questions.
Anything else? Message us on WhatsApp or call the New Delhi office during working hours.
WhatsApp usDo construction jobs abroad need a certificate?
Usually not a trade certificate. Employers select masons, steel fixers and tile fixers on the practical test. You still need a valid passport, a clean medical and, for ECR passport holders going to the Gulf, emigration clearance.
How many workers are usually taken at once?
Construction demand comes in batches — anything from ten to several hundred against one project. Interview days for these are announced on our vacancies page and through our branch offices.
How do I apply for a mason job abroad?
Upload your CV on this website — it is free and takes a few minutes. Our team screens it against the demand letters we are working on, and calls you when there is a match. You then attend the interview or trade test, complete the medical, and we file the visa and, for ECR passports going to Gulf countries, the emigration clearance.
What should my CV show for a mason vacancy?
Your trade stated plainly, the years of experience, the specific equipment or systems you worked on, and the names of the employers with dates. Attach your experience certificates and any trade certificate. Vague CVs get skipped — employers shortlist on specifics.
Do you charge candidates a fee?
Registration and CV upload are free. As a licensed Recruiting Agent we may charge a service fee of up to forty-five days’ wages once you are selected, against a receipt. Nobody at Galaxy Enterprises will ask you for cash without a receipt — if that happens, report it to us directly.
