Your safety comes first — read before you go. Taf4All only lists job offers published by third parties. We are not the employer, we do not conduct these recruitments, and we cannot guarantee what happens once you make contact — you deal directly with the person or company behind the offer, at your own risk.

Fortico seeks dynamic marketing professionals to establish and elevate the group’s marketing function across its diverse portfolio, which includes real estate, manufacturing, and hospitality. Reporting directly to the founding team, you will play a pivotal role in defining and executing marketing strategy across multiple business lines, from brand positioning to campaign execution. Since its inception in 2015, Fortico has grown rapidly in Kigali, Rwanda, now comprising over 12 companies that span the entire real estate and construction supply chain. With Delta Developers, the group has built a reputation for delivering high-quality, large-scale residential developments—fully designed, furnished, and sold in-house. Beyond real estate, Fortico manufactures essential building products, including kitchens, cabinetry, windows, and doors, while also operating hospitality ventures such as a restaurant and spa brand. This cross-sector diversity defines Fortico’s identity, and marketing is a key focus area as the group continues to expand. In this role, you will develop and implement integrated marketing strategies for both the group and its individual companies, collaborating closely with the founding team to refine positioning, messaging, and market entry strategies. Your responsibilities will include crafting branding for existing and new ventures, conceptualizing and executing campaigns with creative flair, producing marketing assets, and contributing to event planning. You will also help establish scalable marketing processes and structures as the function evolves. Ideal candidates will have a strong marketing background, with expertise in strategy, branding, and content—though a combination of these skills is equally valued. Whether you are an emerging professional or a seasoned marketer, we welcome applicants who demonstrate initiative and adaptability. This role offers a unique opportunity to lead marketing initiatives within a high-growth organization and potentially advance to leadership positions in the group or its individual companies as the function matures. We provide a competitive salary, complimentary meals, a state-of-the-art office in a prime location, and the chance to work closely with the founding team in a fast-paced, decision-driven environment. Submit your application via email to , including your CV and a concise cover letter outlining your interest in the role and relevant experience. For additional details, visit our website at https:

Expert Application Advice

When tailoring your CV for Fortico Group, don’t just list duties—highlight how you exceeded targets. For les compétences demandées dans l'annonce, show a clear result, like “increased client retention by 20%.” This proves you deliver real impact, not just effort.

Positioning — Your cover letter must answer one question: why YOU for THIS specific role right NOW? Avoid generic templates — one sentence on what you specifically bring beats three generic paragraphs.

Sales KPIs — Revenue generated, portfolio growth, quota attainment (%): these 3 metrics are mandatory in senior interviews. Also prepare your 100-day plan — sales directors who arrive with a plan are consistently perceived as more credible.

🎯 Make your application ATS-ready

ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) are the software recruiters use to automatically filter CVs before any human reads them. Our CV builder is specifically designed to pass these filters — and it takes under 3 minutes.

  • •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
  • •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
  • •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
  • •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
  • •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
  • •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
