Location: Abuja (FCT)
Employment Type: Full-time
About the Role
We are seeking an experienced and technically strong Chief Technical Officer (CTO) to lead the company’s architectural, design, engineering, construction, and technical operations. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in architecture, building design, construction, project delivery, and technical detailing, with a proven ability to translate design concepts into high-quality, practical, buildable structures. The CTO will be responsible for ensuring that all projects meet the company’s standards for design excellence, structural and architectural integrity, construction quality, functionality, durability, aesthetics, cost efficiency, and attention to detail. This role requires a hands-on technical leader who understands buildings not only at the conceptual level but also at the construction-detail level including drawings, specifications, materials, finishes, interfaces, workmanship, and site execution.
Key Responsibilities
Provide overall technical leadership for the company’s construction and development projects. Establish and maintain technical standards, procedures, specifications, and construction best practices. Review and approve architectural, engineering, construction, and technical documentation. Provide technical direction to architects, engineers, project managers, quantity surveyors, site teams, and contractors. Identify technical risks early and develop practical solutions to prevent delays, defects, and cost overruns. Ensure projects are delivered in accordance with approved designs, specifications, applicable codes, and company standards.
Lead and oversee the architectural design process from concept development through construction documentation and completion. Review architectural concepts, floor plans, elevations, sections, details, materials, finishes, and specifications. Ensure that designs are aesthetically strong, functional, practical, cost-effective, and buildable. Challenge and improve designs where necessary to achieve better functionality, constructability, durability, and value. Ensure consistency between architectural intent and actual site execution. Coordinate architectural designs with structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and other building services.
Review shop drawings, technical submissions, material samples, mock-ups, and design modifications. Ensure proper development of working drawings and construction details before work commences on site. Demonstrate exceptional attention to building details and workmanship. Review critical construction details including waterproofing, roofing, façade systems, doors and windows, staircases, flooring, ceilings, joinery, kitchens, bathrooms, drainage, external works, and building interfaces. Ensure that details shown on drawings can be properly executed on site.
Conduct technical inspections and quality reviews at critical stages of construction. Identify construction defects, poor workmanship, design inconsistencies, and coordination issues. Ensure proper resolution of technical defects before project handover. Establish quality benchmarks and inspection checklists for major construction activities. Promote a culture of “right first time” construction across all projects.
Provide technical oversight of major construction projects from pre-construction through completion. Work closely with project managers and site teams to ensure projects remain aligned with approved designs, budgets, specifications, and schedules. Review construction methodologies and advise on appropriate materials, systems, and techniques. Participate in project planning, value engineering, procurement, and contractor selection. Evaluate alternative construction methods and materials to improve cost, quality, durability, and delivery time. Monitor technical progress and provide regular reports to senior management.
Review and approve architectural and engineering drawings before construction. Review technical submissions and contractor proposals. Review Bills of Quantities, specifications, material schedules, and construction documentation from a technical perspective. Verify that proposed materials and products meet required quality and performance standards. Assess proposed variations and design changes for technical suitability and long-term implications. Ensure adequate documentation and revision control of all technical drawings and specifications.
Coordinate architects, structural engineers, MEP engineers, consultants, contractors, and specialist subcontractors. Identify and resolve clashes between architectural, structural, and building services designs. Lead technical coordination meetings where required.
Salary: N500,000 – N750,000 / month.

- •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
- •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
- •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
- •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
- •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
- •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
