GLOBAL: Recognizing
the chasm between talent and Islamic economy job opportunities, London
and Dubai-based Jardine Human Capital has forged a partnership with
Islamic Finance news
(IFN) to launch a unique global platform designed specifically to connect
employers and potential job seekers in the Islamic economy space.
Known as the Islamic Economy Career Portal, this pioneering platform
utilizes a sophisticated system to optimize both career and candidate
search for hiring companies and job seekers. Through the portal’s
user-friendly categorization apparatus, interested organizations would be
able to narrow down candidates with the required expertise, experience
and qualification while individuals would be able to filter work
opportunities by country, industry, organization as well as experience
level.
“What we have found during our own work is that actually there is a
selection of excellent talent out there but it is difficult to find; they
are often already in work and not active job seekers, though these are individuals
who would be interested in moving to a new position if the opportunity
arose,” explained Azhar Mirza, CEO of Jardine Human Capital. “We are now
going to be able to pair together companies with these individuals.
Crucially, we are globalizing a sector which has previously been limited
to regions e.g. London, Kuala Lumpur and the GCC.”
Highlighting that the Islamic finance sector is one of the most
established areas within the Islamic economy, with phenomenal growth of
demand across regions including the Middle East, Asia and Africa, Azhar
notes the immense opportunity to pair job positions with best-fitting
candidates. “Through our partnership with IFN, we will be able to
communicate with an exceptionally large and global selection of
professionals who are working in, or are interested in working in the
Islamic finance space.”
Commenting on the launch of the new platform, Andrew Morgan, the managing
director and publisher of IFN, said: “We hear on a daily basis about the
number of professionals the industry requires, yet there are many
thousands of Islamic finance graduates and experienced practitioners
seeking suitable positions. This new Islamic Economy Career Portal will
provide both job and staff seekers with that necessary link. Azhar and
his team have done a wonderful job in developing this portal and we’re
delighted to be working with them.”
