Job Title - Business Development Manager

Location - Ahmedabad

Experience - 3+ Years

Job Overview

We are hiring a Business Development Manager to own the full sales cycle from identifying prospects to closing deals. You will sell AI, automation, and custom software services to startups and businesses globally. This is not a lead-generation-only role. We expect someone who can close.

What You Will Do

Sales & Business Development

Own end-to-end sales: outreach, discovery calls, proposals, negotiation, and closure
Maintain a healthy pipeline and hit monthly/quarterly revenue targets
Build long-term client relationships that generate repeat business and referrals

Outreach & Campaigns

Plan and run outbound campaigns across email and LinkedIn
Write personalised messages that convert - not generic mass outreach
Track open rates, reply rates, and conversions; improve based on data

AI-Powered Execution

Use tools like Clay, Apollo, and ChatGPT to personalise outreach at scale
Build lightweight automation to cut manual work on research and follow-ups

CRM & Pipeline

Keep CRM updated with accurate deal stages, notes, and forecasts
Send weekly pipeline reports to founders with clear blockers and next steps

Process & SOPs

Document what works: lead gen, outreach, proposals, follow-ups, closure
Build repeatable systems so the BD function can scale beyond just you

Partnerships

Identify and develop partnerships with agencies and resellers internationally
Explore new acquisition channels beyond inbound and outbound

What We Need

Must have:

3-4 years in business development or sales at an IT services or SaaS company
Proven track record of closing deals, not just sourcing leads
Solid understanding of AI, automation, or software services (you don't need to code, but you must hold a credible conversation with a technical buyer)
Daily CRM experience - HubSpot or Saleshandy
Strong written English for outreach and proposals

Good to have:

Experience selling to US, UK, or European clients
Exposure to agency or reseller partnerships
Familiarity with Zapier, Make, or similar automation tools
