Moves and stacks material around site, yard and store using counterbalance and rough-terrain forklifts.
Direct answer
Gulf Orbit supplies forklift operators to industrial yards, construction laydown areas, warehouses and logistics hubs anywhere in Saudi Arabia. TUV-carded forklift operators are available, with Aramco-certified or non-Aramco operators as your site requires. State the forklift type and capacity in your RFQ.
State the forklift type and capacity, the work area (yard, warehouse or laydown), and whether TUV or Aramco cards are required.
Request a quoteForklift operators work in indoor racking and rough outdoor laydown areas. They operate diesel, LPG, and electric counterbalance forklifts, rough-terrain telehandlers, and warehouse reach trucks, from unloading flatbed trucks of structural steel and pipe spools to stacking palletized goods in high-bay racking.
Forklifts and pedestrians share the same yards. Operators carry out daily circle checks: hydraulic fluid levels, fork condition, mast chains, brake response, reversing alarms, and steering mechanisms. They enforce pedestrian exclusion zones, maintain safe mast travel heights, comply with site speed limits, and adhere to traffic management protocols in busy industrial yards.
For warehouse work, seasonal peaks or a construction laydown yard, operator availability, required heavy-equipment licenses and competency records are reviewed for the assignment and site, and worker documents are reviewed per project, before a mobilization timeline is confirmed.
A telehandler on forks behaves like a forklift. With the boom extended and a load on a hook or jib attachment, it is lifting, and many sites then treat the move as a lifting operation with a lift plan and a rigger. Say in the RFQ whether your telehandler will be used with lifting attachments. It changes the card the operator needs, whether a rigger joins the crew, and how the operator is matched.
A forklift operator rarely works alone in a busy yard. On laydown areas and in stores, operators usually work with a storekeeper who controls what moves and where it goes, and with helpers who sling, band and guide loads. If your traffic plan requires a banksman for reversing or blind loading, add that role to the request so the crew arrives complete.

TUV-carded forklift operators are available, and Aramco-certified or non-Aramco forklift operators can be supplied as your site requires. Card copies are sent with CVs for your approval before mobilization.
Operators are matched to the forklift type and capacity on your site: diesel and electric counterbalance forklifts, rough-terrain forklifts, telehandlers and narrow-aisle reach trucks. State the machine and its rated capacity in the RFQ.
The operator's licence and card copies (TUV, and Aramco where your site requires it) come with the CV for your approval before mobilization.
Yes, against your site rules. Rack alignment, blind-spot, horn-signal and narrow-aisle requirements are confirmed for the warehouse before operators are put forward.
Yes. We support seasonal inventory peaks, port cargo discharges, plant turnarounds, and construction staging with flexible short-term and long-term supply.
No, that is a different role. Operators move and place material; receiving, issuing and recording stock is the storekeeper's job. On a busy laydown yard or store, request a storekeeper on the same RFQ so movements and records are handled by the right people.
