Job Description
Wahed, a leading Islamic fintech company managing over $2 billion in assets, is seeking a Marketing Associate to drive the launch and growth of iWaqf, an innovative endowment (waqf) platform. iWaqf democratizes the Islamic tradition of waqfs—charitable trusts that generate perpetual returns benefiting chosen causes—bringing a 1400-year-old practice into the modern digital era.
This is a hands-on, execution-focused role spanning three key areas
Design & Content: Create marketing assets for social media, email, web, and events using design tools like Canva or Figma. Develop engaging short-form video content that explains waqfs and motivates charitable giving. Write compelling copy for newsletters, email campaigns, landing pages, and event materials. Plan and execute campaigns around key giving moments (Ramadan, Dhul Hijjah, Giving Tuesday). Collaborate with charity partners to share impact stories.
Funnel, Analytics & Conversion: Build and manage the donor funnel from initial awareness to completed waqf creation. Track campaign performance and identify conversion opportunities. Analyze drop-off points and test improvements through A/B testing, copy optimization, landing page iterations, and email flow refinement.
Community & Partnerships: Develop relationships with mosques, Islamic societies, community groups, and charities. Drive organic engagement across social media, online communities, and forums. Support planning and execution of online events and webinars. Collaborate with ambassadors and content creators on campaign execution.
The ideal candidate is action-oriented, preferring to ship progress today rather than wait for perfect plans. You should be resourceful and scrappy (comfortable working with limited budgets or templates), have built something yourself (business, side project, university society, community channel, or content platform), and thrive in fast-moving startup environments. Strong written English, excellent interpersonal skills, and confidence reaching out to community leaders are essential. You should be comfortable on camera for social media content.
Requirements: Some marketing experience (internship, university placement, freelance work, or personal projects); demonstrated ability to design marketing assets with a portfolio to share; comfort working with analytics and using data to drive decisions; understanding of marketing funnels and conversion strategies; proactive, organized, and deadline-driven work style with ability to work independently; genuine interest in charitable giving, Islamic finance, or fintech; and comfort presenting and featuring in video content.
What You'll Gain: Real responsibility from day one on a new product launch, mentorship from the Wahed team, and meaningful work with lasting social impact.
