About the Opportunity
Qatar’s aviation sector is among the fastest-growing in the world. Hamad International Airport (DOH) — one of the busiest hubs in the Middle East — and its ground-handling companies handle millions of passengers and tonnes of cargo every year. This creates constant demand for ground staff: baggage and ramp handlers, cargo agents, cabin-cleaning crew, trolley and wheelchair assistants and passenger-service agents.
Qatari aviation and ground-handling employers are actively recruiting disciplined, physically fit candidates with basic English. They offer legal employment, a tax-exempt Qatari Riyal salary and a stable Kafala-based work visa.
Selected candidates are employed directly by reputed Qatari employers under Qatar Labour Law and the Wage Protection System (WPS), which guarantees on-time salary, employer-provided housing, transport, paid leave and end-of-service gratuity.
