About Career Zoom
Career Zoom is a Singapore-headquartered boutique executive search, RPO and CXO-on-Demand firm, specialising in senior leadership hiring across BFSI, fintech and technology sectors. We are expanding into India, establishing our first in-market presence in Mumbai to build relationships with BFSI institutions, fintechs, and Global Capability Centres (GCCs) across the India.

The Role
We're looking for an experienced, India-market-savvy Business Development qualified to lead Career Zoom's on-the-ground business development in Mumbai.

Build and manage relationships with senior decision-makers (CHRO, CXO, founder-level) across BFSI, fintech, and technology/GCC clients in Mumbai and other Metro cities
Develop and submit business proposals in coordination with Singapore HQ
Maintain rigorous CRM and pipeline discipline
Represent Career Zoom at industry conferences, chamber events and networking sessions
Conduct market intelligence gathering and provide monthly reporting to Singapore HQ
Contribute to an initial market-entry research effort covering target sectors, competitive landscape and go-to-market planning

What Success Looks Like
Consistent monthly target-account mapping and qualified client meetings
Growing, well-documented sales pipeline with transparent opportunity value
Signed executive search man
