Assistant Sales Manager (ASM) — Hillarys India, Bengaluru
Most sales roles hand you a territory. This one hands you a market.
Hillarys is the UK's largest made-to-measure curtains and blinds brand, and part of Hunter Douglas — the global leader in window coverings, present in over 100 countries. In India we started in Bengaluru, and we are still early enough that whoever joins now helps decide how this business sells.
We design, measure, manufacture and install — all in-house. No dealer in between, no franchise. When a customer's home finally looks the way they imagined it, that was our team, end to end.
About the role The Assistant Sales Manager will lead our Design Consultant team, drive sales targets, and own funnel conversion from lead to closure. You will run performance reviews, coach consultants, keep the pipeline healthy, and work with operations to make sure every order is delivered on time.
Key responsibilities
Support the Sales in delivering monthly revenue, order volume and conversion targets
Lead, coach and develop a team of Design Consultants
Run daily and weekly performance reviews using live CRM data
Own funnel discipline end to end — lead allocation, appointment scheduling, follow-ups, quotation to closure
Identify where conversion is being lost and put corrective actions in place
Coach consultants on product, pricing and closing, including joint customer visits on key opportunities
Manage escalations and high-value customer requirements
Onboard and train current Design Consultants as the team grows
Build the commercial channel through architects, interior designers and builders
Coordinate with operations, production and installation for seamless order execution
What we're looking for
3–5 years in sales, with experience guiding or mentoring a team
Background in home interiors, furniture, modular kitchens, building materials, consumer durables or a similar consultative, considered-purchase category
Consistent record of achieving targets — you will be coaching people, and that works only if you have carried a number yourself
Comfortable working from CRM data rather than instinct
Strong communication and relationship-building skills
Fluency in English, Hindi and Kannada; multilingual will be an advantage
Graduate; MBA an advantage but not essential
Why join us
Real ownership. You are not executing someone else's playbook. If you can see why conversion is leaking, you get to fix it.
Earnings that move with performance. Fixed salary plus a monthly performance-linked incentive, with additional schemes through the year over and above the regular incentive.
A short runway to Sales Manager. As Bengaluru scales and new markets open, leadership comes from inside.
A global brand behind you. Hunter Douglas product standards, systems and training, in a business that still moves like a start-up.
A category people enjoy buying. Nobody is excited to buy insurance. People are genuinely excited about their home, and that changes what selling feels like every day.
Being straight about what this is
This is a growing business, not a settled one. Processes are still being built, and some days you will be the one building them. You will sit closer to the work than a manager at a larger company — reviewing numbers in the morning, in a customer's home in the afternoon when a deal needs it. If you want a role where the structure is finished and you simply run it, this is not that one.
If that is the part you would enjoy most, we should talk.
Location: Bengaluru (on-site)
Type: Full-time, on-roll
