What I'm looking for

I'm seeking fully remote opportunities in customer service or relationship management.

At BANQUE SAUDI FRANSI, I structured and launched the Murabaha Gold Advance product, coordinating its implementation across Risk, Compliance, the Shariah Committee, IT, Operations and Credit Administration. I also presented credit proposals to the Credit Committee and negotiated financing terms with clients.

At THE SAUDI INVESTMENT BANK, I managed corporate relationships and grew my assigned portfolio to US$600 million. I also spearheaded an executive task force developing and launching specialized Islamic Contract Financing products.

As a founding partner and investor in Nature by Marc Beyrouthy, I participate in board meetings and strategic decisions. In other investment activities, I’ve prepared feasibility studies and share valuations, negotiated share pricing remotely, and developed a framework for a company in Germany and its investor group in Dubai.
