In 2017, our founders started Sarwa due to a lack of financial services offered to most of the world, and out of a need to help empower people in the region to invest in their financial future. Sarwa is poised to continue growing into the go-to platform for people to grow their wealth.

We do this through expert, affordable and easy investing. We're a small team working on the region's first and fastest growing investment and personal finance platform, making investing easy, low-cost and transparent, with a human touch woven into every step of the process.

We are a remote-first team. Where you choose to work is up to you — we have an office in Abu Dhabi that you can utilize as often or little as you'd like.

We’re looking for a Community Engagement Lead to help drive engagement on our social channels. You’ll be responding to comments, DMs, reposting, and initiating conversations (via AMA, polls, questions) on our LinkedIn, Instagram, Reddit, X, and other social channels. You will be experimenting across channels to see what engages our followers the most, and look for ways to improve our current engagement rate. You’ll work closely with the Creative Marketing team, CX, Product and Advisors to exchange ideas and optimize what attracts our followers the most. 

The ideal candidate has excellent English writing skills, is curious, loves to learn, and is comfortable being proactive and owning different projects.

Responsibilities:

• Design and execute a comprehensive community engagement strategy aligned with Sarwa’s brand voice and business goals.
  

• Actively manage and grow Sarwa’s presence across key platforms (Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X), keeping a finger on the pulse of online conversations.
  

• Respond to comments and DMs with tact, humor, and wit—every comment or DM should feel on-brand and intentional.

• Turn follower interactions into high-impact moments and content ideas.
  

• Collaborate with our content, advisory, and support teams to ensure a unified tone and experience for our community.
  

• Monitor conversations, identify sentiment trends, and deliver insights to internal teams.
  

• Build relationships with community champions, clients, and affiliates.
  

• Organize and lead virtual events, AMAs, or community meetups to strengthen community ties.
  

• Track performance through engagement metrics, sentiment analysis, and community health indicators.

• Stay ahead of platform trends and internet culture to help Sarwa remain relevant, sharp, and human online.
  

Requirements:
