HSBC has been progressing its Qatar Nationalisation strategy by leveraging the bank’s unique employee value proposition to attract and retain the best young national talent.
Over the last six months, the bank’s nationalisation team attended career fairs across the country to promote the variety of opportunities offered by HSBC to the growing pool of young, talented Qatari graduates.
“One of the four pillars of HSBC’s strategy is to 'Energise for Growth’, which at its heart means creating a dynamic culture where the best people want to work,” said Shamsa al-Fahd, head (Human Resources) at HSBC Qatar.
“We offer a unique working experience that has many opportunities for learning, travelling and growing locally and internationally.”
“Aspiring employees are impressed by the bank’s progressive approach to hybrid working and achieving a sustainable work and life balance for our colleagues,” Shamsa added.
“We place great value on employee well-being and have different employee resource groups to support colleagues across all areas of working life. We believe in creating a diverse and inclusive workplace, where everyone is valued and respected.”
HSBC Qatar was recognised for its achievements at the Qatar Ministry of Labour’s annual award ceremony late last year.
“We work closely with the Ministry of Labour to ensure alignment with the country’s National Vision 2030 programme and its commitment to building and promoting Qatari talent. We appreciate the Ministry’s ongoing efforts and plans in providing a strong pipeline of young talent to enter the job market,” Shamsa added.
HSBC Qatar will recruit a new cohort for its graduate programme this year and continue to invest in sponsoring selected undergraduate students to support their studies.
“This initiative is a part of our ongoing commitment to supporting Qatari nationals and investing in the development of local talent in the banking industry,” said Hussain al-Sharshani, head (Nationalisation) at HSBC Qatar.
The sponsorship programme offers students a monthly salary while studying and an opportunity to gain valuable work experience and develop their skills.
