Qatar’s rapid development beyond the 2022 World Cup has sparked a surge in infrastructure and energy projects. The country’s 2025 budget is over US$56.7 billion, with roughly US$278.3 billion in active construction projects (over half in oil & gas). A new national health and safety policy (2020) underscores this growth by assigning companies clear responsibilities for worker protection. As a result, industries across Qatar are emphasizing workplace safety, and HSE (Health, Safety & Environment) managers are in high demand to ensure compliance on everything from oil rigs to megacity builds. So we made a list for you. HSE Manager Jobs in Qatar for year 2025.

HSE Managers oversee safety protocols, risk assessments and environmental compliance. In Qatar’s booming economy – driven by energy, manufacturing and transport – these professionals play a vital role. For example, Qatar’s labor laws and 2030 National Vision require companies to inform workers of hazards and maintain safe workplaces. With energy projects expected to account for 58% of contracting value in 2025, the need for skilled HSE managers (to enforce protocols, conduct training and prevent accidents) is greater than ever.

Top Companies Hiring HSE Managers in Qatar

1. QatarEnergy (Qatar Petroleum) – Qatar’s state oil and gas company (now renamed QatarEnergy) is expanding its LNG and petrochemicals operations. It currently operates 14 LNG trains with a 77 million tonnes-per-year capacity (the world’s largest). The North Field expansion will raise that to 110 mtpa by 2026. With such mega-projects, QatarEnergy enforces stringent safety standards. In fact, its LNG subsidiary Qatargas recently celebrated 12 years without a single lost-time incident on its offshore platforms, reflecting the company’s focus on HSE. As QatarEnergy invests in new plants and offshore facilities, it continually hires HSE managers to uphold this record of safety.
2. Hyundai Engineering & Construction – This leading Korean contractor has won major Qatar projects, including a QR252.6 billion deal for a treated sewage effluent (TSE) storage facility and a QR98.2 billion contract to build a new hospital wing. Hyundai E&C’s success “demonstrates the excellence of our technological capability”, and its Qatar ventures cover everything from water infrastructure to healthcare. Such large-scale construction demands full-time HSE management. Candidates with experience in project safety (permitting, audits, etc.) are prized as Hyundai E&C and its partners prepare sites and train personnel under strict safety protocols.
3. Larsen & Toubro (L&T Qatar) – L&T is a $30+ billion Indian EPC firm with a strong presence in Qatar’s oil and gas sector. In 2025, L&T secured an “ultra-mega” offshore contract for QatarEnergy’s North Field Compression project – its largest order ever at over US$1.7 billion. L&T emphasizes delivering such complex energy projects “while complying to world-class safety standards”. In other words, every mega-project needs dedicated HSE oversight. L&T’s ongoing work in facilities, pipelines and platforms means they regularly recruit HSE managers and officers to ensure each phase meets these high safety benchmarks.
4. Parsons Corporation – An American infrastructure and defense engineering firm, Parsons has been instrumental in Qatar’s transport expansion. For example, Parsons led the design and construction management of the $4 billion Doha Expressway for Ashghal (Qatar’s Public Works Authority). On this massive highway upgrade, Parsons worked “collaboratively with the client and other stakeholders to develop safe and efficient facilities” while minimizing community impact. This focus on safety in design and construction is typical of Parsons’ projects. Beyond roads, Parsons serves Qatar’s urban and defense sectors – all areas where HSE managers are needed to implement safety plans, conduct risk assessments and oversee compliance during construction and operations.
5. Qatargas – As the flagship LNG operator (now a QatarEnergy subsidiary), Qatargas runs multiple liquefaction plants and offshore facilities. It has a stellar safety culture: Qatargas’ offshore operations achieved 12 years without a Lost Time Incident, thanks to programs like rigorous risk assessments and safety training. Continuing expansion (including new ammonia and petrochemical complexes) means Qatargas is always looking for experienced HSE professionals. Candidates with LNG or petrochemical safety backgrounds can find opportunities ensuring Qatargas maintains its incident-free record as it scales up production.
