Key Responsibilities:
New Logo Acquisition
- Prospect and engage with target accounts using multiple channels (networking, cold outreach, events, digital).
Pipeline Development & Conversion
- Build and maintain a healthy pipeline with 3x coverage.
- Drive competitive pursuits and position Yash against incumbent providers.
Market & Partner Engagement
- Leverage alliances, rainmakers, and influencers to open doors in target accounts.
- Represent Yash at industry events, conferences, and client forums to increase visibility.
Handoff & Transition to Client Partners
- Ensure smooth transition of closed accounts to Client Partners for mining and long-term growth.
- Maintain executive presence during early delivery phases to reinforce credibility.
Qualifications:
- 8 to 10 years of experience in business development or sales, ideally within IT services or consulting.
- Proven success acquiring new clients and managing full sales cycles — from prospecting to closure.
- Strong understanding of the local market landscape, including target industries, key accounts, and competitive ecosystem.
- Bachelor’s degree required; MBA or equivalent postgraduate degree preferred.
- Business-savvy with technical fluency — able to connect YASH’s offerings (e.g., SAP, Cloud, Data, AI, Salesforce) to client needs and business outcomes.
Compensation for this role includes a competitive base salary, performance-linked incentives, and long-term growth opportunities, along with a comprehensive benefits package aligned to local market practices.
