My names are Benard Kimara..I bless God for the opportunity to share a bit of my story…well I came to Qatar in the year 2013 through a licensed manpower agency.I had been recruited by one of the security companies based here as a normal Security officer. Life at first was both intriguing and tough at the same time due to the harsh weather conditions.
As time went on I adapted and gelled in to became part of the expatriate community out here.After an year or so the management of the company I work with saw I had potential in me and started to raise me in ranks as well as offer specialized trainings in both Safety and security field.This is a common practice that’s done to Kenyans by different companies given that Kenyans are first learners. Later on I was assigned to head a Security team at one of the biggest malls here(Ezdan mall)with a capacity of 30,000 people per footfall. This turned out to become one of my biggest challenges to ever face In my career and at the same time a big blessing. I would later be assigned as a specialist to head other security teams around Doha including Aljazeera media Hq where I’m currently stationed and the Power and water company services called Karhama.
Being here has enabled me to sharpen my skills in the Security field due to the exposure I get especially with the authorities and the member of the armed forces I’ve gotten…
