About Wahed:
The global financial system wasn't built for everyone. For millions of people, its reliance on interest (riba) creates a barrier to managing money and building wealth without compromising their values.
At Wahed, we're changing that. We are a global fintech company on a mission to build a new financial system—one that is ethical, accessible, and entirely interest-free. From our offices across the globe, our team is building products that were once deemed impossible. If you're driven to solve complex problems and believe finance should empower, not exclude, join us in building a more equitable financial future.
Our real estate business extends that mission to property—giving everyday investors access to institutional-quality, income-generating homes. We are growing quickly, we run lean and efficiently, and we are looking for purpose-driven people who want to build something that truly matters.
Job Brief:
We are seeking a flexible, analytical, roll-up-your-sleeves Associate, Asset Management to help steward Wahed's growing real estate portfolio across the United Kingdom, Malaysia, and the United States. Reporting to the Senior Analyst, Asset Management, you will be the hands-on execution engine that helps the Senior Analyst deliver against the team's goals—making sure newly acquired properties are stabilized, protected, performing, and delivering the distributions we have committed to our investors.
The Senior Analyst owns these outcomes; your job is to make them happen on the ground. You will be equally comfortable in a spreadsheet and on the phone with a property manager, will do whatever it takes to get the job done, and will help build the repeatable processes that let a lean team manage a rapidly growing, multi-market portfolio.
Job Responsibilities:
As the accountable owner of these outcomes, you will:
Post-Acquisition Stabilization & Operations
- Help drive post-acquisition stabilization of newly acquired properties—ensuring each asset is fully operational from day one, including that insurance is in place and utilities are set up and active.
- Coordinate necessary repairs and capital works so they are completed on time and on budget, and continuously monitor and track ongoing repairs and maintenance across the portfolio.
- Monitor cash balances at each asset to confirm adequate reserves for anticipated repairs, escalating liquidity risks to the Senior Analyst early.
- Work with the Shariah and risk teams to ensure prudent risk management at all times.

- A genuine “whatever it takes” mindset—comfortable chasing property managers, vendors, and internal teams until the job is done—and comfortable with ambiguity, change, and rapid growth.

You will learn the full asset-management playbook alongside the Senior Analyst while directly contributing to the future of ethical, Shariah-compliant real estate investing.
