Of course Qatar offers great opportunities, not charging any income tax and needing lots of professionals at many different levels to keep the country growing at such an amazing rate.
To find yourself such a job, you will have to take action yourself. I can not find the job for you. What I can do is guide you with a few steps, that are going to make the process a whole lot easier! I have given those steps in my Youtube video titled Find Jobs in Qatar. This article is written to supplement that video, providing all the links to other websites, and information in easy to read text format.

Telephone: +233541736570

If you are looking for a management or higher position job in Qatar, many of those are fulfilled through contacts / networking and headhunting. I highly recommend expanding gaining connections with people already working in these positions, using websites such as linkedin.com and facebook.com In Qatar it can make a huge difference who you know, so networking is probably essential. Many friends and neighbours I’ve talked to in management positions where recruited by headhunting, rather than them applying for the job themselves!
