Mohamed Elrayes

Upholstery Foreman & Furniture Quality Control Supervisor with over 10 years of hands-on experience in custom furniture upholstery, leatherwork, interior decoration, and luxury furnishings across Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE.

I began my career in Egypt, working with multiple leading companies specializing in high-end furniture manufacturing, interior decor, and luxury furnishings. There, I built a strong foundation in advanced upholstery techniques, pattern making, leather finishing, quality control, and the delivery of premium custom pieces for residential and commercial projects.

I then moved to Saudi Arabia and joined Al-Farouqi Contracting and Wood Industries Company, where I specialized in high-quality upholstery, furniture restoration, and large-scale production. My role involved leading production teams, maintaining premium standards, and delivering projects that met strict client specifications.

Later, I joined Mouhajer International Design & Contracting in the UAE, contributing to luxury interior fit-outs and turnkey projects in Dubai. I managed upholstery teams, performed quality control inspections, supervised the installation of custom furniture, and worked closely with designers to execute high-end finishes using premium leather, fabric, and wood materials.

I am highly skilled in team leadership, quality assurance, material sourcing, and delivering projects on time while upholding the highest safety and craftsmanship standards. Currently based in Dubai, UAE, I am actively seeking new opportunities as Upholstery Foreman, Senior Upholsterer, or Quality Control Supervisor in the furniture and interior contracting sector across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and Ajman.

Open to full-time positions or freelance/custom projects.
