Human Resources Generalist

Job Overview

Ikwat is an AI-powered event creation and ticketing platform designed for India's micro-event hosts—yoga instructors, supper club chefs, workshop facilitators, and community organizers. We're pre-seed stage, currently raising and looking for a driven sales person to help onboard our first host partnerships.

You'll be the first person on the sales team, building direct relationships with potential hosts, understanding their pain points, and demonstrating how Ikwat saves them time and increases revenue. This is a hands-on role reporting directly to the founder.

What You'll Do

•      Identify and outreach to potential hosts across yoga, wellness, food, workshops, and community event spaces (LinkedIn, direct email, Instagram and referral networks).

•      Conduct product demos and discovery calls to understand host requirements and pain points.

•      Close partnerships: Onboard hosts onto the platform, and support early activation.

•      Track pipeline, forecast, and report weekly progress to founder (Google Sheets, basic CRM).

•      Provide feedback on product gaps and user feedback from real hosts to inform roadmap.

Who You Are

•      0–5 years of B2B sales or business development experience (SaaS, SMB products, or marketplaces preferred, but not required if you have sales hunger).

•      Comfortable with cold outreach—LinkedIn, email, Instagram and phone calls—and converting interest into meetings.

•      Direct, honest communication; pushback on ideas is expected and valued. Comfortable in ambiguity and wearing multiple hats in an early-stage start-up.
