About The Role
As a Business Development Manager at Samaaro, you will be the spearhead of our expansion into the US market. This is a high-impact, strategic role where you will own the outbound-led pipeline generation process from scratch. Working directly with the Founders, you will identify high-fit

accounts, navigate complex buying committees, and architect a predictable sales engine that fuels our global growth. This isn't just about making calls; it's about owning the Go-To-Market (GTM) motion for a specific territory.

Key Responsibilities

  • US Market Business Development
  • Strategic Prospecting: Own the full outbound cycle for the US market across defined ICPs and industries
  • Account Mapping: Research and identify target accounts, key personas, and complex buying committees
  • Multi-Channel Outreach: Drive initial conversations via cold email, LinkedIn, and cold calling
  • Qualification: Conduct discovery calls to qualify leads based on defined criteria and handover high-intent meetings to Account Executives or Founders
  • Pipeline Ownership & CRM Hygiene
  • Consistency: Build and maintain a steady outbound pipeline to ensure monthly meeting targets are met
  • Quality Control: Ensure rigorous discovery and qualification before any deal handover
  • CRM Discipline: Maintain 100% accurate CRM hygiene, including detailed notes and activity tracking
  • Insights: Provide regular feedback to the team regarding lead quality, messaging resonance, and common market objections
  • Messaging and Positioning
  • Localization: Tailor outreach narratives specifically for US-based decision-makers
  • Value-Led Selling: Articulate business outcomes and ROI rather than listing product features
  • Objection Handling: Navigate first-level objections around timing, budget, and competitive relevance with ease
  • Collaboration and Enablement
  • GTM Alignment: Partner with Marketing on account-based campaigns and outbound narratives
  • Process Optimization: Work with RevOps to improve lead lists, data enrichment, and automated sequences

Required Skills & Tools


  • 3 - 6 years of experience in B2B SaaS sales with a mandatory track record of selling to the US market
  • Exceptional verbal and written communication skills with the ability to build rapport with US Csuite and VP-level personas
  • Proven experience in mid-market or enterprise outbound sales cycles and multi-touch prospecting
  • Proficiency with modern outbound tools:

Prospecting: Apollo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator.

Engagement: Outreach, Salesloft, or similar.

CRM: HubSpot or Salesforce.

What We Are Looking For

  • The Hunter Mentality: You are self-motivated, resilient, and thrive on the challenge of turning a cold lead into a hot opportunity
  • Strategic Thinkers: You don't just follow a script; you research accounts deeply and personalize your approach to solve specific business pain points
  • Process Discipline: You understand that sales is a science and maintain high standards for your daily activities and data tracking
  • Adaptability: You are comfortable working in a fast-paced environment and can shift strategies based on live market feedback
  • Time Zone Flexibility: You are comfortable working India-based hours that align with US business time zones (Night shift/Partial overlap)

Why Join Samaaro


  • Early-Stage Impact: You will have a front-row seat and a builder role in our US GTM motion, directly influencing how we scale
  • Founder-Led Growth: Work closely with the Founders, receiving direct mentorship and exposure to enterprise-level deal-making
  • Accelerated Career Path: We are scaling fast. High performers have a clear, documented path to move into Senior BD or Account Executive (Closing) roles
  • Culture of Ownership: At Samaaro, we value outcomes over hours. You will have the autonomy to own your territory and drive results your way
