The Opportunity

We’re seeking a Head of Sales to lead revenue growth to $1M ARR within year one. For 15 years, we’ve grown through founder-led relationships and proven the product works. Now we need a systematic sales leader who can optimize our foundation (Pipedrive, Apollo, proven processes) and scale aggressively.

Report to: COO (co-founder) with high autonomy to refine processes, build team, drive revenue

What makes this different:

• Proven platform ready to scale: 1B+ ad impressions delivered, 250M+ reach, expanding MasjidConnect DOOH inventory across 3,000+ mosques
• Massive underserved market: $3T halal economy, 1.8 billion Muslims, minimal Muslim-first ad tech competition
• Validated verticals: Islamic finance, halal food/tourism, Muslim consumer brands, education, healthcare all proven

• Close enterprise deals: Fortune 500, major Islamic organizations, regional campaigns

Must-Haves

• Systems builder: You’ve created sales infrastructure, not just followed it

Compensation & Benefits

Compensation Philosophy

We’re profitable but haven’t raised institutional capital yet, so we can’t offer FAANG-level base salaries. We offer significant upside through commission, equity ownership, and profit participation.

• Uncapped earnings: No commission ceiling as you scale revenue
• Equity ownership: Real stake in company profitability (15+ years profitable)

All Team Members Receive:

• 100% remote work (we’re a global team, applicants from anywhere in the world welcome)

• Access to industry conferences and training (E.g. World Halal Summit, Ad tech events)
• Be part of a mission-driven company serving 1.8 billion people
• Work on meaningful projects (not just clicks and conversions, but community impact)
