Job description

Cargo Capacity & Revenue Optimization Manager

Doha, Qatar

Company & Industry

• Qatar Airways Cargo
• Aviation & Air Cargo
• Full-time On-site

The Context

Qatar Airways Cargo, the world's largest global air cargo carrier, is hiring a Cargo Inventory Management Manager to oversee network capacity and revenue optimization from its Doha headquarters. The role focuses on driving network margins across passenger bellyhold and dedicated freighter operations through advanced revenue management, overbooking controls, and capacity allocation strategies.

What The Role Covers

Network Revenue & Capacity Optimization

You design and execute strategic inventory controls to maximize cargo profitability across the global flight network. You balance capacity distribution between long-term customer allotments and dynamic free-sales capacity, utilizing no-show trends and demand forecasting to establish calibrated overbooking risk levels.

Performance Governance & Cross-Functional Alignment

You establish analytical performance review frameworks to monitor route profitability, evaluate flow trends, and resolve operational or commercial constraints. You lead structured alignment sessions with internal commercial, ground, and network planning teams to pivot inventory strategies based on real-time market conditions.

Team Leadership & Digital Analytics Transformation

You manage, mentor, and upskill a dedicated team of inventory management specialists and analysts. You act as a functional subject matter expert on strategic initiatives, leveraging business intelligence tools such as Power BI, Tableau, and Excel to advance network digitalization and process optimization.

Candidate Profile

• Bachelor's degree with a minimum of 6 years of specialized experience in airline cargo, air freight, or aviation supply chain operations
• Demonstrated expertise in cargo revenue management, network margin optimization, and dynamic capacity allocation
• Proven proficiency with quantitative analysis and business intelligence platforms, specifically Power BI, Tableau, and advanced Excel
• Strong leadership skills with a background in managing cross-functional teams, stakeholder networks, and strategic project rollouts
• Fluent in professional written and spoken English with exceptional negotiation and communication capabilities

Why This Role Stands Out

Qatar Airways Cargo sits at the center of global air freight flows, making this position an exceptionally high-impact role within the MENA aviation sector. Managing global cargo capacity and yield management from a world-leading hub offers unmatched visibility into international trade dynamics, dynamic pricing models, and large-scale fleet integration.

While senior aviation roles in Doha attract significant applicant numbers, candidates with combined expertise in cargo-specific revenue algorithms, digital BI visualization tools (Power BI/Tableau), and direct network optimization experience represent a select talent pool. Specialized air cargo inventory leaders are highly sought after to support ongoing global trade expansion.
