- Build and maintain relationships with key accounts, ensuring repeat business and referrals.
- Coordinate with the operations and interiors execution teams to ensure proposed scopes are deliverable and priced accurately.
- Track market trends, competitor offerings, and pricing benchmarks in the Bangalore FM and interiors market.
- Represent Converra FM at relevant industry events, RWA (Resident Welfare Association) meetings, and corporate facility forums.
- Maintain accurate records of leads, opportunities, and conversions in the CRM; report regularly on pipeline status and revenue targets.
- Support vendor and marketing teams with input on service positioning and client feedback.

- Demonstrated experience owning large or complex accounts, including corporate/institutional clients, and mentoring junior BD executives.
- Proven track record of consistently meeting or exceeding sales/revenue targets, ideally with exposure to annual revenue ownership.
- Strong, established network within the Bangalore commercial and residential property market - developers, RWAs, corporate facility/procurement teams, or channel partners.
- Solid experience selling AMC-based or recurring-revenue service contracts, including multi-year and enterprise-level agreements.
Skills & Attributes
- Excellent communication, negotiation, and presentation skills.
- Strong relationship-building ability with both individual clients (homeowners) and corporate stakeholders.
- Self-starter with the ability to work independently and manage a full sales pipeline.
- Comfortable with a mix of field visits, client meetings, and CRM-based reporting.
- Proficiency in MS Office / Google Workspace; familiarity with CRM tools is an advantage.
- Fluency in English is required; working proficiency in Kannada and/or Hindi is a strong advantage for local market engagement.
- High ownership mentality and comfort working in a fast-growing, entrepreneurial environment.
What We Offer
