- Work closely with Sales Managers and other stakeholders to achieve business targets.
- Prepare and maintain sales reports, dashboards and performance trackers.
- Support onboarding and OJT of new team members before they move to independent selling.

Candidate Requirements
- 3–6 years of experience in Inside Sales / Telesales, with prior team-handling experience.

- Good experience in call audits, coaching and performance feedback.

Preferred Background

Candidates from subscription sales, EdTech, FinTech, WealthTech, insurance, consumer internet or other high-volume Inside Sales environments will be preferred.

Experience in businesses where customers need to be actively convinced and the same sales executive owns the journey through final payment and closure will be highly preferred.

The ideal candidate should be someone who has personally done full-cycle telesales conversion and has subsequently led a team responsible for the same end-to-end sales process.
