Islamic property finance fintech, Offa, has boosted its headcount with the appointment of a new business development manager.
Firoza Ismail brings a wealth of experience from the financial sector, with deep expertise in Sharia-compliant finance and a strong background as a financial broker.
Offa, the first company to launch Sharia-compliant bridging finance in the UK, recently launched a bridge-to-let finance service.
The company also recently purchased Bank of Ireland’s Alburaq Sharia-compliant home finance portfolio and announced it had received FCA authorisation to provide upcoming Islamic home purchase plans.
Firoza Ismail said: “I was drawn to Offa’s forward-thinking vision and commitment to meaningful financial solutions, which align with my religious and ethical values. I look forward to driving sustainable partnerships that support our customers, communities, and Offa’s continued growth.”
Sayful Rahman, senior business development manager, commented: “We are thrilled to welcome Firoza to the Offa team. Her passion for ethical finance and her alignment with Offa’s mission make her an exceptional addition to our Business Development efforts. We’re confident that Firoza’s strategic insight and drive will play a pivotal role in accelerating our growth and expanding our impact.
“We are a rapidly expanding company and our new hires over the past 12 months are a reflection of our determination to ensure we deliver an innovative, exceptional and impactful product offering. Expect more hiring announcements in the near future.”
