Brader & Partners is a specialist house for Syria’s reconstruction — pairing executive search and market-entry advisory with full-scale engineering delivery, so the firms rebuilding the country can enter, staff, build and commission with one accountable partner.
International and regional firms — contractors, developers, energy majors and institutions — entering or scaling operations in Syria, and needing leadership and delivery they can trust from day one.
We go deep in three reconstruction sectors, reach senior diaspora talent no job board can, and back our advice with genuine engineering delivery — not slides.
Engagements are structured and invoiced offshore, removing the payment and currency friction of operating in a reopening market.
Whether you are entering Syria or building in it, a single firm carries it — from the first feasibility question to a commissioned asset and the team that runs it.
For firms entering Syria’s reconstruction, we reduce the risk of the first, hardest decisions — who to hire, who to partner with, and how to prove workforce competence.
Retained search for senior and specialist roles, drawing on a Syrian and diaspora network. Every candidate is screened to international background and sanctions-exposure standards — so your first hires de-risk your entry rather than expose it.
Market-entry strategy, local partner identification, joint-venture structuring and organisational build-out — grounded in decades of on-the-ground delivery on complex projects.
The layer between selling labour and selling training: independent, internationally accredited skills and safety certification, pairing certified people with the employers who need them. Accreditation partnerships in development.
Turn-key engineering across the full project life cycle — from the first master plan and feasibility study through construction supervision to testing, commissioning and hand-over.
Master planning that integrates the urban environment, sustainability and economic viability — with feasibility studies and pre-design reports that test technical, operational and financial risk and set the design criteria that become the road map for delivery.
As development manager we represent the owner’s interest across the whole asset life cycle — from concept and procurement strategy to delivery. On site we act as the “Engineer” and “Employer’s Representative”, with cost, commercial, contract and procurement control, delivering in compliance with the contract, the standards and the budget.
As an independent third-party commissioning authority to the owner, we bring objectivity and practical experience to ensure building systems comply with design intent — engaged early to review design, prepare plans and schedule activities.
Reconstruction is won or lost on sector fluency. We go deep where the capital is flowing.
Development, commercial, asset and project leadership for the residential, mixed-use and urban-renewal programmes driving the rebuild.
Project and programme directors, civil, structural and MEP leadership, and the site management that delivers large-scale works to standard.
Leadership for generation, grid, renewables and oil & gas — the specialists steering the energy backbone of the reconstruction economy.
We reach the senior Syrian professionals abroad that in-country platforms structurally cannot.
Three sectors, understood end to end. We speak your language and know who the real players are.
Every candidate vetted against international background and sanctions-exposure standards.
Clean, predictable engagements invoiced offshore — no exposure to local banking or currency friction.
Our team’s cumulative experience spans landmark healthcare, hospitality, high-rise, education, residential and power projects across the Middle East and Europe.
The rebuild needs its best people. If you are a senior leader in real estate, construction and engineering, or energy — in Syria or abroad — we want to know you. Confidential conversations, selectively matched to mandates that fit.

Read →Established in 2017, Brader & Partners Engineering Firm is a multidisciplinary practice specialized in technical services and creative solutions for complex, sustainable projects.
The firm was founded by an established holding group together with senior chartered engineers bringing a cumulative delivery exceeding US$1.5 billion of projects across the Middle East and Europe.
That heritage in engineering and construction is what lets us do something few advisory firms can: pair genuine delivery capability with market-entry, talent and certification services — one partner accountable from strategy through commissioning.

Syria — reconstruction and rebuild.
We are a specialist house for Syria’s reconstruction, running two practices: Market Entry & Talent (executive search with compliance screening, partnerships & growth advisory, and certification & placement) and Engineering & Delivery (master planning & feasibility, development and project management with site supervision, and testing & commissioning).
Because the two are inseparable in reconstruction: you need the right people and the ability to deliver. Our engineering heritage is what lets us pair genuine execution with market-entry, talent and certification services — one partner accountable from strategy through commissioning, rather than three vendors pointing at each other.
Syria’s reconstruction, exclusively, across three sectors: real estate development; construction, project management and engineering; and power and energy. We go deep in these rather than spreading thin.
Every candidate and counterparty is screened to international background and sanctions-exposure standards, so your first hires and partners reduce your risk of entry rather than create it. We also recommend clients take their own legal and compliance advice for their jurisdiction.
Yes. United States sanctions on Syria were lifted in 2025, and in August 2026 the United States removed Syria’s designation as a State Sponsor of Terrorism — described by officials as eliminating the final major barrier to private-sector investment. The market is open to legitimate investment and reconstruction activity. The precise position still depends on your jurisdiction and counterparties, so we structure engagements conservatively and advise clients to confirm their own position with qualified legal counsel.
Engagements are structured and invoiced offshore, removing the payment and currency friction of operating in a reopening market.
Executive search is a retained fee, structured per mandate. Advisory and engineering work is scoped and priced per engagement. We agree the basis with you before any work begins.
Timelines depend on the seniority and specialism of the role, but our diaspora and regional network lets us move faster than a cold search. We agree a target timeline at the outset of each mandate.
It is the layer between sourcing labour and delivering training: independent, internationally accredited skills and safety certification, pairing certified people with the employers who need them. Accreditation partnerships are in development.
