• Digital Platform Management: Utilize the SuuqBay internal agent platform to upload, manage, and update listings promptly. Ensure all digital content is accurate and visually appealing.
• Quality Assurance: Conduct regular audits of your assigned listings to ensure they remain current and accurately represented.
• Market Expansion: Engage with local dalaals (informal brokers) and invite reputable individuals to join our "Verified Dalaal" programme.
• Feedback Loop: Act as the primary liaison between our partners and the SuuqBay leadership team, providing valuable on-the-ground feedback to refine our onboarding processes and platform features.
