Job Title: Content and Social Media Executive Reports To: Group Head of Marketing (dotted line to Senior Marketing Manager) Location: Hybrid (Cape Town) Direct Reports: N/A About j. awan & partners The j. awan & partners group operates across three complementary entities: j. awan & partners, a GCC‑founder with global reach regulatory and compliance advisory firm; azakaw, a purpose‑built RegTech compliance platform automating KYC, KYB, AML screening, transaction monitoring, and corporate compliance; and j. awan capital, a KSA‑focused regulatory and compliance advisory firm combining compliance advisory with fund hosting and administration. Together, the group serves financial services institutions, FinTech's, fund managers, and professional services firms navigating complex regulatory environments across the GCC, Africa, and international markets. Marketing operates as a unified group function delivering coordinated demand generation, brand positioning, and pipeline support across all three entities. Mission A content production role for a writer who understands regulated B2B markets and produces content that moves sophisticated buyers across every stage of the funnel. The Senior Marketing Manager sets the editorial direction; you bring it to life. You write, research, optimise, and distribute content across azakaw, j. awan & partners, and j. awan capital, from SEO articles and gated guides to social copy, newsletters, and campaign assets. You are not a generalist content producer. You understand how compliance, RegTech, and financial services audiences read, search, and decide across the GCC, Africa, and international markets. You can explain the difference between CDD and EDD, know what a STR is, and understand why PEP screening matters. You write with search intent in mind. You know how to turn a regulatory update into a LinkedIn post, a white paper chapter, and a nurture email without losing accuracy, authority, or the reader's attention. You identify opportunities to repurpose existing content across channels and funnel stages rather than always producing from scratch. The ideal candidate has 3 to 5 years of B2B content experience in SaaS, fintech, regtech, legal tech, or a regulated industry. They bring genuine AML, KYC, and KYB domain knowledge: enough to write credibly for compliance officers without heavy fact‑checking. They are a strong SEO writer with a clear grasp of search intent, heading structure, meta copy, and internal linking. They are a clear and engaging social copywriter, and a disciplined project manager who can handle multiple briefs simultaneously without missing deadlines. They use AI tools to accelerate drafting and research, apply their own editorial judgment to every output, and track content performance with the same rigour they apply to writing. The best candidate archetype is a former compliance professional who can write, or a fintech content strategist with a verifiable portfolio in regulated markets.

Core Competencies B2B SEO Writing: Writes content with search intent built in from the brief stage. Understands keyword integration, internal linking, and on‑page SEO without compromising prose quality or regulatory accuracy.

Understands how compliance officers read and evaluate content. Does not require SME hand‑holding on foundational concepts. Flags uncertainty rather than publishing under‑researched material. Familiarity with GCC‑specific regulators (DFSA, ADGM, VARA, CBUAE) and equivalent frameworks in African and international markets is a strong advantage.

Content Performance Analysis: Tracks SEO rankings, gated asset conversions, social engagement, and newsletter metrics using Google Analytics, HubSpot, and equivalent tools.
