**Strategic advisory engagement — reports directly to the Founder**

This is not a CFO role — this is a high-trust strategic advisory relationship with the Founder

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ABOUT OUR NEST

Our Nest Real Estate LLC is a fast-scaling UAE real estate company operating across property sales, leasing, investments, and mortgages. With a growing team, strong GTV performance, and expanding operations across Dubai and Sharjah, the Founder is seeking a trusted financial mind to sit alongside leadership — not within it.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ROLE OVERVIEW

The Financial Advisor to the Founder is a high-trust, strategic engagement. You will analyse Our Nest's current financial position, maintain and oversee the integrity of financial books, build forward-looking models, identify legal and financial risks, and advise the Founder on decisions that impact profitability, compliance, and long-term growth. This is a relationship built on insight, accuracy, and trust.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

- 05 to 10 years in finance, accounting, or strategic financial consulting

- Deep hands-on experience maintaining books — not just reviewing them

- Strong knowledge of UAE corporate tax law, VAT regulations, and real estate compliance (RERA)

- Proven track record advising UAE SMEs, founders, or real estate businesses

- Strong financial modelling, forecasting, and bookkeeping capabilities

- Ability to translate complex financial data into clear, founder-friendly decisions

- Familiarity with CRM platforms and digital sales operations

- Existing relationships with UAE legal and tax advisory firms

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR YOU IF

- You are only a strategist — this role requires you to also get into the books

- You prefer large corporate structures over direct founder collaboration
