Job Purpose
The Lead Corporate Relations is a high-impact, target-driven individual contributor responsible for sourcing internship and project opportunities from tech companies, startups, SMBs, and international firms for NxtWave’s college-going students.
This is a hunter role. Your primary activity is cold calling decision-makers — Founders, CTOs, CEOs, Tech Leads, and HR Managers — to discover hiring needs and create internship opportunities where none have been posted. You own the company relationship end-to-end: prospecting, qualification, closure, and repeat engagement. Internal teams handle student profiling and interview coordination so you can focus on companies.

Key Responsibilities
Corporate Discovery & Direct Outreach
Run high-volume cold calling as the primary daily activity — target 20–30 conversations with decision-makers per day (100–150+ weekly).
Build pipeline independently using job portals, LinkedIn, AngelList, startup databases, company career pages, funding announcements, and hiring signals; lead-gen team support is supplementary.




Use a consultative discovery approach: ask deep questions about team structure, product roadmap, hiring timelines, skill gaps, and growth challenges before pitching.
Identify latent talent needs and pitch internships as high-ROI solutions to specific business problems — don’t wait for posted openings.
Document every outreach attempt in the CRM to enable intelligent follow-up cadences.
Prospect Qualification & Closure
Capture full chance details from companies: project scope (micro-project, multi-week project, or multi-month internship), technical requirements, team structure, duration, time commitment, reporting, compensation, and expectations.
Drive the company-side placement process end-to-end — align with the internal student team on availability, schedule interviews, brief the company, collect feedback, and close offers.
Stay engaged post-placement to ensure the engagement runs smoothly and to surf
