I don't mean to be discouraging to you by any stretch but most people don't just up and relocate to Qatar. We are brought by specific companies for certain positions. That's why Westerners can be paid a considerable amount of money - they were recruited and hired from overseas because of a very particular set of skills/experience needed by a firm in Qatar. When our contracts are over we will, nay MUST, however sadly return to our home countries. It is not a free-market economy. There are some generic recruiting agencies but your best bet is directly with a company that needs your specialized skill or a headhunter acting on that company's behalf. If you haven't a skill that is in high demand (i.e. transplant surgeon) you will be competing for jobs with people from closer countries which traditionally tend to underbid their services.
