• Collaborate closely with BDMs to ensure smooth handovers and alignment on client expectations.
• Track team performance, generate reports, and identify improvement areas to optimize productivity.
• Drive process adherence and create playbooks/checklists to ensure consistency across the pre-sales function.
• Provide training, guidance, and performance feedback to BDEs to build strong communication and customer-handling skills.
• Analyze funnel health (calls, connects, meetings, conversions) and recommend tactical changes.
• Stay updated on digital marketing trends and industry shifts to help the team position solutions effectively.

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree (MBA preferred) with 3+ years of experience in inside sales or pre-sales.
• Proven experience managing a tele-calling/inside sales team of at least 15 members.
• Strong understanding of digital marketing concepts and the ability to communicate their value to SMEs/business owners.
• Excellent leadership, coaching, and communication skills.

• A high sense of ownership, strong work ethic, and willingness to go the extra mile
• MUST be available to work full-time from our office in Vashi, Navi Mumbai

Why This Role Is Special

• Get an eagle-eye view of the company, learning how decisions are made at the top
• Be part of the founding core of one of the most promising AI startups in the country
