Social Media Manager (Real Estate, Tech & Longevity)

Our client is a new-generation real estate development company based in Dubai. It is creating a portfolio of residential, commercial, and mixed-use developments designed around the future of human living.

The company is built on the pillars of thoughtful design, ancient architectural wisdom, intelligent technology, and human-centred data. It is pioneering a new category of real estate: places that actively support human health, wellbeing, and longevity.

Technology is not treated as an add-on. It is integrated into the foundation of every development. The company connects homes, products, and building systems through its proprietary intelligent living system. This intelligence learns from individual needs and evolves over time, creating environments that are more intuitive, responsive, and deeply human.

Its developments span residential, commercial, and mixed-use communities across Dubai. Architecture draws on timeless principles and is enhanced by modern innovation. Every home is designed to support healthier, longer, and more fulfilling lives. A growing, brand-led team is shaping the company’s identity across every channel and audience.
