Employment Type: Full-time

Experience Level: 3+ Years

Department: Sales & Business Development

About the Role

We are seeking an ambitious, results-driven Sales Representative with a proven track record in B2B IT / SaaS Sales to join our team in Mumbai. In this role, you will manage end-to-end sales cycles — driving outbound prospecting, qualifying inbound leads, conducting product demonstrations, and closing deals. If you are proactive, thrive in a target-driven environment, and excel at translating technical value into clear business ROI for decision-makers, we'd love to connect.

This role requires hands-on field sales experience — you should be comfortable meeting clients in person, conducting on-site visits, and closing deals face-to-face in addition to remote/virtual selling.

Key Responsibilities

• Pipeline Generation & Prospecting: Execute strategic outbound outreach (cold emailing, LinkedIn networking, cold calling, and in-person field visits) targeting mid-market and enterprise decision-makers (CTOs, CIOs, Heads of Sales/Marketing, Founders).
• Inbound Lead Conversion: Promptly engage, qualify, and convert marketing-generated inbound leads into active sales opportunities.
• Product Discovery & Demo: Conduct consultative discovery calls and on-site/in-person product walkthroughs to identify prospect pain points and deliver tailored demos.
• Field Sales & Client Visits: Travel for client meetings, site visits, and relationship-building activities within Mumbai and surrounding regions as required.
• Negotiation & Closing: Build commercial proposals, lead contract negotiations, manage objection handling, and consistently close deals to meet/exceed quarterly quota targets.
• CRM & Pipeline Hygiene: Maintain accurate and up-to-date records of all deals, activities, and forecasts in the CRM (e.g., HubSpot / Salesforce).
• Market Feedback: Work closely with Marketing and Product teams to share customer feedback, competitive insights, and market trends.

Key Qualifications & Skills

• Education: B.Tech / B.E. graduate is mandatory. (A technical/engineering background helps in translating product capability into client-facing business value.)
• Experience: Minimum 3+ years of direct selling experience in B2B Tech / IT Services / SaaS, with demonstrated field sales exposure (on-site client visits, in-person demos/negotiations — not purely remote/inside sales).
• Proven Track Record: Demonstrated history of consistently meeting or exceeding individual sales quotas and pipeline generation targets.
• Sales Acumen: Strong grasp of consultative and solution-selling methodologies (e.g., MEDDPICC, BANT, SPIN).
• Communication: Exceptional verbal, written, presentation, and active listening skills.
• Mindset: Highly self-motivated, resilient, comfortable with ambiguity, willing to travel locally for client meetings, and able to work independently.
• Location: Based in or willing to relocate to Mumbai.

Key Responsibilities:

· Own the full outbound cycle for international markets (US/UK/Europe) - prospecting, first meeting, discovery and follow-through until handover or closure.

· Build and maintain a qualified pipeline through cold calling, email sequences, LinkedIn outreach and other multi-channel campaigns.

· Understand and apply structured sales cadences; consistently meet monthly targets for meetings booked, pipeline created and revenue contribution.

· Run discovery calls and product demos with international prospects, understand their requirements and map them to the right service offerings.

· Prepare proposals, commercial estimates and RFP/RFI responses in coordination with the delivery and technical teams.

· Negotiate commercial terms and support contract closure along with the reporting manager.

· Maintain accurate records of all outreach, opportunities and forecasts in CRM; report weekly on KPIs and pipeline health.

· Represent the company on relevant platforms (Upwork, Clutch, LinkedIn, events) and support account mining of existing clients.

Required Skills & Qualifications: 

· Global B2B Sales Experience: Proven track record of selling IT/software services or technology products to international clients (US/UK/Global), with experience owning targets.

· Lead Generation & Prospecting: Ability to identify, research and qualify target accounts and decision-makers using web research, LinkedIn Sales Navigator and prospecting tools.

· Pipeline & CRM Management: Hands-on experience managing an opportunity pipeline end to end, with disciplined follow-up, forecasting and CRM hygiene (HubSpot, Zoho, Salesforce or similar).

· Consultative Selling & Negotiation: Capability to run discovery and demo calls, handle objections, negotiate commercials and drive deals to closure with international stakeholders.

· Proposal & Documentation Skills: Ability to prepare clear proposals, estimates, SOWs and RFP responses in coordination with technical teams.

· Communication & Interpersonal Skills: Exceptional active listening and persuasive communication skills to navigate gatekeepers and engage senior stakeholders effectively.

· Technical Aptitude: Working familiarity with B2B tech products, software development services, mobile/web solutions or robotics so as to articulate value propositions credibly.

Preferred Skills (Nice to Have):

· Spreadsheet & Reporting Proficiency: Experience managing prospect lists, tracking metrics and reporting data using Excel or Google Sheets.

· Target-Driven Track Record: Demonstrated history of meeting or exceeding outbound KPIs, call volumes or revenue quotas in a high-growth tech environment.
