From Humble Beginnings to QHSE Leadership
Have you ever wondered if your passion could lead to a fulfilling, financially rewarding career? For me, the answer came through an unexpected journey into the world of QHSE (Quality, Health, Safety, and Environment). Here’s how one decision changed my life and why I believe QHSE is a field full of opportunities for anyone ready to take the leap.
Finding My Path
Growing up, I admired my father, who spent his life in the oil fields. His expertise, the respect he earned, and the lifestyle he provided for our family left a lasting impression. I dreamed of achieving the same—but the road was anything but easy.
After graduating, resources were scarce, and money was tight. Determined to support myself, I took on temporary jobs, eventually landing as an Assistant Mechanic on Rig One in the Red Sea. Despite the challenges, I worked with unwavering dedication. Within five months, my efforts caught the attention of management. Little did I know, this recognition would set the stage for a life-changing opportunity.
A Leap of Faith into QHSE
One day, the HR manager called me in with a surprising offer: a role as a Safety Officer. My first reaction was confusion—"What does a Safety Officer even do?" But then he mentioned the salary: four times what I was making as an Assistant Mechanic. My decision was immediate.
I signed the contract without hesitation, not even reading the details. All I knew was that this opportunity promised a brighter future. Within months, I was working internationally as a Safety Engineer. I’ll never forget the moment I saw my first paycheck—it was five times what I earned before. I froze in disbelief, realizing how much my life had changed.
Rising Through the Ranks
Over the years, my QHSE journey took me across rigs, services, and countries. I embraced every challenge, climbing the management ladder until I became the QHSE Manager of International Operations at AlMansoori, a company I hold dear to my heart. For 16 years, I worked alongside incredible people, contributing to a business that set industry standards.
QHSE wasn’t just a job—it became a passion. It taught me leadership, resilience, and the importance of protecting lives while ensuring operational excellence. This field gave me financial security, global exposure, and a purpose that I carried with pride.
The Entrepreneurial Leap
After years of climbing the QHSE ladder and achieving incredible milestones, I began reflecting on what’s next for me. While my time at AlMansoori had been immensely rewarding, I wanted to explore how I could channel my passion and expertise into something of my own.
My journey with AlMansoori was nothing short of transformative. When I joined, the company had already built a strong legacy over its 30-year history. Over my 16 years there, I was privileged to contribute to its tremendous growth, helping shape it into a powerhouse worth billions. Together with an exceptional team and visionary leadership, we elevated AlMansoori to new heights, making it one of the most respected names in the industry.
Every moment of my time at AlMansoori reinforced my love for QHSE. It wasn’t just a job—it was a purpose. However, I realized that I wanted to take everything I had learned and apply it to create something that was my own, built on the same principles of excellence and integrity that had defined my time at AlMansoori.
Starting from scratch, with just five people and AED 50,000, I embarked on a journey to build a business that could uphold the same values I cherished. It was not just about making money—it was about making a difference, continuing the legacy of quality, safety, and innovation that had shaped my career. Today, I am proud of the work we’ve done, knowing that it stands as a testament to the impact QHSE professionals can have when they pursue their passion with purpose.
