- Transform brand campaigns, product messaging, and promotional content from English to Saudi Arabic
- Ensure financial terminology is accurate, Shariah-sensitive where needed, and natural-sounding
- Maintain brand tone of voice ("confident, concise, never patronizing") while adapting to local cultural codes

- Produce SEO content: blog posts, educational articles, and evergreen content optimized for Arabic search
- Write social media content: organic posts, campaign copy, and community engagement content
- Develop CRM content: push notifications, email sequences, and SMS in a tone that respects the user without being transactional
Qualifications & Experience
