The posting

Sanabil Studio is a venture builder that blends industry expertise, technology, and startup know-how to turn bold ideas into real businesses. We take concepts from zero to launch, and when a venture proves its potential, we back it with seed funding and hands-on support to help it scale.

At Makan, we believe homeownership in Saudi Arabia should be built on real equity, not just rent. Through a rent-to-own model, residents move in with a 10% down payment instead of the 30% banks require, build real equity every year through their rent, and use that accumulated equity to refinance into a standard bank mortgage if they qualify at year five.

We are the founding team building Makan from a validated thesis to signed assets, signed investors, and a functioning company, with Sanabil Studio providing the financial model, pre-seed capital, operational backbone, and institutional governance.

About the Role We're looking for a highly experienced Capital & Finance Lead to co-found Makan and own the raising, structuring, and financial model of the business end-to-end.

This role is responsible for raising debt and equity, structuring the fund and deal mechanics, and owning investor relations from LOI through signed commitment. You'll work closely with a Real Estate & Asset co-founder and the Sanabil Studio Investment Committee to turn a validated model into closed capital and a licensed fund structure.

THE ROLE: What you'll own here.

  • Raise and structure debt and equity from funding partners.
  • Own the financial model, calculating ROI and structuring the capital stack the venture needs.
  • Structure term sheets, waterfalls, and fee economics with institutional investors, family offices, or LPs.
  • Own investor relations: pitching, negotiating, and closing capital partners from LOI through signed commitment.
  • Own the regulatory and fund pathway, from SPV to CMA-licensed fund, and all investor reporting.
  • Help define and execute Makan's go-to-market and capital strategy alongside your co-founder.
  • Represent the venture in front of the Sanabil Studio Investment Committee and institutional LPs.
  • Recruit and lead Makan's founding team across commercial, operations, and product functions.

THE PROFILE: You're probably a fit if...

  • You have experience raising debt and/or equity for funds, SPVs, or real-asset-backed vehicles as a fund manager, investment banker, or capital markets professional.
  • You have personally structured a term sheet, waterfall, or fee economics for an institutional investor, family office, or LP.
  • You understand how Saudi family offices, capitals, and banks evaluate real-asset-backed paper, and what it takes to close a commitment.
  • You are comfortable building and defending a financial model, and can confidently calculate ROI and structure a capital stack.
  • You have led a fundraising process or capital-raising function before, including investor reporting and governance.
  • You deeply understand the Saudi capital markets and regulatory environment (SAMA, CMA).
  • You are currently based in or willing to relocate to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Saudi Nationals preferred.

Bonus: A named anchor LP or family office relationship that could write a meaningful first ticket; experience with sukuk issuance or structured private placements; prior experience working with or inside a venture studio or venture builder.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE: Within the first year, you'll...

  • Have closed initial capital commitments from investors or family offices.
  • Have a licensed and functioning fund/SPV structure in place.
  • Have built a financial model and investor reporting rhythm the Investment Committee trusts.
  • Be recognized as a credible representative of the venture in front of institutional LPs.
  • Be working independently with minimal supervision alongside your co-founder.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
