Hello ATC:

What are the ICAO and possible local procedures when:
1/ An A/C declares an emergency for an engine failure with damage after take off.
2/ An A/C rejects take off and declares a MAYDAY due to an engine failure/fire

I'm looking for.
What SOPs are to be followed for these abnormal emergencies.

Agree with what looking for a job has already posted.

As a little bit extra, following the Manchester incident years ago, if you reject your take off with an engine fire, I would expect our atcos to remember to pass you the surface wind once you had slowed down sufficiently. Gives you the option of stopping and abandoning the aircraft on the runway whilst turning the engine fire away from the fuselage.
