Research prospects to assess fit and identify the right contact and route in
Segment and prioritise the pipeline by likelihood and relevance
Keep contact records accurate, deduplicated and current
Outreach & Meeting Coordination
Run first-touch outreach (email, LinkedIn) to secure introductory meetings — the objective is to book a call, not to pitch
Personalise messaging within approved templates while holding the brand's tone
Manage structured, disciplined follow-up sequences so no lead stalls
Schedule and coordinate intro calls between prospects and the principal; manage diaries, reminders and rescheduling
Prepare short briefing notes on each prospect ahead of meetings
CRM & Pipeline Management
Own the day-to-day CRM: log every outreach, reply, meeting note and next action
Track pipeline stage and conversion, and surface warm leads promptly
Maintain follow-up cadence so nothing goes cold
Produce a simple weekly activity and pipeline update for the principal

Assist with preparing and distributing fact sheets, decks and other approved materials
Help maintain and organise the data room
Ensure only current, approved versions of documents are ever sent out
Coordinate and track document requests from prospective investors

Keep files, trackers and records organised and audit-ready
Desired Candidate Profile
Essential
Recent graduate — degree in finance, economics, business or a related field, or another discipline paired with a genuine, demonstrable interest in markets and asset management
Excellent written English — clear, concise, credible; the single most important attribute for this role, since outreach lives or dies on how they write
Eligible to live and work in the UAE — existing UAE residence a strong plus (keeps sponsorship off the table and speeds up start)
Organised and process-driven — able to run a clean pipeline and disciplined follow-up without dropping leads or needing to be chased
Resilient and self-directed — comfortable with high-volume outreach and a low reply rate, and able to work independently alongside a busy principal
Detail-oriented and discreet — precise with investor-facing materials and instinctively confidential with sensitive information
Professional communication style — credible and on-brand; institutional register, not a hard-sell or influencer tone
Desirable
Baseline financial literacy — understands what a fund is, roughly how a systematic strategy works, and the difference between a family office, an allocator and a qualified investor
Genuine interest in systematic/quant strategies or precious metals
Familiarity with CRM tools, LinkedIn/Sales Navigator and spreadsheets (readily trainable, so not a filter)
Any prior outreach, sales, client-facing or internship experience
Additional languages — Arabic or others relevant to the region's investor base
Attributes
Hungry and proactive — treats this as a real opportunity to learn how a fund raises capital, not a box-ticking internship
High standards and strong personal accountability
Long-term mindset — genuinely interested in a permanent seat, not just a line on the CV
