Jord Figee

Co-Founder & Commercial Lead, DiligenceWorks

Jord brings financial services sales and relationship management experience across the Gulf and MENA markets to DiligenceWorks. Based in Dubai, he saw firsthand how fund managers, family offices, and advisory firms in the region struggled to access institutional-grade deal analysis tools without building large internal teams. The emerging fund manager problem is his focus: a two-person GP running a $50M fund needs the same analytical rigour as a $5B platform, but cannot afford to hire a team of analysts. DiligenceWorks exists to close that gap. The platform gives smaller funds access to adversarial deal analysis that would otherwise require dedicated headcount and months of process building. Jord leads client relationships, sales strategy, and market development across the Gulf, with a particular focus on DIFC-regulated firms and family offices evaluating co-investment opportunities. He works closely with prospects to map their existing diligence workflows and identify where the platform creates immediate operational value. DRAFT: Jord to review and adjust.
