About

Muhammad Khan

Head of Marketing & Growth

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Introduction

I build marketing systems. Not campaigns in isolation, but the full commercial architecture behind sustainable growth: acquisition funnels, team structures, performance logic, and the reporting needed to make confident decisions at scale.

Most of my work has started from a blank slate. I have joined businesses where marketing was fragmented, underfunded, or running without strategic ownership, and I have built the function from the inside out. That experience — spanning real estate, education, fitness, and service businesses — has made me precise about what actually moves revenue.

My approach is systems-first. I use paid acquisition, CRM automation, funnel optimization, and data reporting not as separate tactics but as connected levers inside a single growth engine. Everything gets evaluated against commercial outcomes.

I am currently available for fractional leadership roles, strategic consulting engagements, and senior in-house opportunities where the challenge is real and the expectation is commercial accountability.

Engagement Length

Longest continuous client retention — a measure of consistent commercial delivery.

Across every engagement, the pattern has been the same: arrive at a business with marketing in fragments, identify the highest-leverage structural gaps, and build a growth system that works without constant active management.

That means real structural work: defining reporting logic, aligning paid and organic acquisition, designing the CRM handoff, building the team capable of executing, and owning performance accountability at the leadership level.
