New job offer at Doha-salary adequacy
Hi,
I am expecting a job offer at Doha from a reputed Qatari co.as Finance head( I am a senior CA/ICWA) with the foll.package:-
01. The salary offered is Q.O. 11,000/- per month
02. This position is with family status and the following are provided in addition to the salary.
(a)Furnished family accommodation with water and electricity.
(b) Company maintained car with fuel. Once you obtain Qatari Driving Licence.
(b)Medical facilities for self and family (excluding gynecology).
(c)Air passage for self and family for joining from Bombay/Bangalora/Delhi/Calcutta and return after one year of continue service.
(d)Leave salary and gratuity as per Qatari Labour Law.
(e)The joining time should be restricted to one month.
(f)The salary & perquisites offered are totally tax free and there would not be any deduction on account of this
Is this a good offer that can be accepted?I am a family of self+wife+one child of 11 yrs.
Pl.advise.
Also advise the average cost of living for family like me +educational expenses for my child in an Indian school in Doha.
Here co.is providing fully furnished accomodation+fully maintained car+free medical,etc.
Even after this you consider the basic salary to be 25K or USD7,200/- per month?
Isn't it asking for too much ?
11K for a senior CA is very very less should/must get more the 25K as basic

as a senior CA, i think u can ask for a bit more. also as bral1960 said, try to ask them to cover the school fee for ur child.
hi bab184!!! would you mind if i ask the company you were given this offer??? kindly reply thru private message if you don't want to disclose the company name... can i send you my CV as well??? im looking for an accounting/finance job in qatar... im currently based in riyadh and planning to move there for good... i would be much appreciated if you could reply to me as soon as posible... thanks!!!
Thanks a lot for your feedback
Essentially means...besides food, electricity, water and telephone charges...you can save or spend the rest according to your lifestyle. That and cost of child's education. Here's how I would do a rough estimation.
Food: 2000 p.m
Electricity and water: 400 p.m
Phone: 800 pm[ assuming u have 2 lines]
School monthly tuition: 1000 p.m
Essentially means that u should have a disposable income anywhere between 6000-6800. I dont think that's a bad deal to start with at all. But given your experience and education...is this good? That I am not qualified to answer!
Ask for school fees.
