A new burst of recruitment saw several fresh Bahraini recruits being brought up to speed with the world of Islamic mortgage finance as part of Sakana Holistic Housing Solutions commitment to developing young Bahraini talent.
This brings the total number of Bahrainis on staff to the significant figure of 75 per cent. It also brings the total number of female staff to 44 per cent, a sign of the mortgage provider's affirmative stance in encouraging women to enter the workforce, and, importantly, to build a solid career path.
As with all Sakana staff, the recruits will be put through a combination of on- and off-site training programmes to ensure they are equipped with sufficient business knowledge to offer customers accurate, consistent information and quality service.
Sakana CEO R Lakshmanan said: "Bahrain has a wealth of talent in its young men and women who are just waiting to make their mark on the world of business. We have benefited from the enthusiasm and expertise of our Bahraini staff members, whose ability to grasp the fundamental principles of Islamic mortgage finance has allowed them to make rapid progress."
New recruit, Shaika Janahi, said: "Working for such a young and dynamic company is rewarding, and I feel that my contribution is recognised and appreciated. I have ambitions to grow with the company and am sure that opportunities for personal development will come in due course."
