Developing the next generation of Qatari banking professionals took centre stage on Wednesday as Commercial Bank, in collaboration with the Ministry of Labour, hosted its Career Day, highlighting the growing role of public-private partnerships in advancing Qatarisation and supporting Qatar National Vision 2030.
Held at The Ritz-Carlton Doha Wednesday, the event brought together senior government officials, Commercial Bank executives and aspiring Qatari jobseekers, providing a platform for recruitment, career guidance and discussions on developing national talent for the country’s evolving financial sector.
Speaking to Gulf Times, Mohammed Juma al-Kuwari, Assistant Director of the National Manpower Recruitment Department at the Ministry of Labour, said that the ministry’s participation reflects its continued commitment to empowering Qataris within the private sector.
“The Ministry of Labour participates in the second exhibition of Commercial Bank and its strategic role with its partners in the private sector in employing Qataris and building Qataris in the private sector within Qatar National Vision 2030,” al-Kuwari said.
The event forms part of broader national efforts to increase the participation of Qatari nationals in key industries while ensuring young professionals are equipped with the skills required for long-term career success.
Nasser Abdulla al-Harmi, Executive General Manager, Chief Human Resources Officer at Commercial Bank, said the initiative demonstrates the bank’s commitment to investing in national talent beyond traditional recruitment.
“Commercial Bank’s Career Day, held in collaboration with the Ministry of Labour, reflects our commitment to Qatar’s national development agenda and to attracting the brightest Qatari talent.
“Qatarisation for us goes beyond job creation — it is a direct investment in the nation’s human capital, equipping young Qataris with the skills, training, and leadership pathways needed to drive the country’s economic diversification.
“This partnership with the Ministry of Labour helps align the sector’s needs with high-calibre national talent, building a new generation of banking leaders who will help shape the future of Qatar’s financial sector and its broader economy.”
Eiman Mohamed al-Naemi, Executive General Manager, Chief Communications and Marketing Officer at Commercial Bank, said: “Career Day represents an exceptional platform that reflects Commercial Bank’s vision of building sustainable relationships with the community and reinforcing its role as a responsible corporate citizen invested in the nation’s progress.
“Through this initiative, we are proud to strengthen our engagement with the community and reaffirm our brand’s commitment to supporting the aspirations of Qatari youth. Such initiatives further underscore Commercial Bank’s position as an active partner in advancing national priorities and reflect our broader CSR vision of contributing meaningfully to Qatar’s economic and social development journey.”
