After completing her doctorate, al-Muftah became an HR manager at Qatar University until 2008.[2] In 2020 she became an advisor to the Minister of Commerce, and in 2012 began working Qatar Rail,[1] later becoming an associate professor and Vice President of Financial and Administrative Affairs at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, where she lectures in the School of Public Administration and Development Economics.[1] She also became president of the Library and Information Society of Qatar.[1]

Al-Muftah was appointed to the Consultative Council in November 2017 by Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani.[3]
