Sr. Business Development Manager

Mumbai – Goregaon E | Hybrid | CTC: ₹6.5–7 LPA Base + Performance Incentive | Experience: 5–6 Years

About the Role

WordBerries is scaling fast, and we need a hands-on sales leader from the advertising, marketing, or digital agency world to build our full-funnel revenue engine. This is a player-coach role—one day you're fine-tuning a pitch deck, the next you're presenting international market strategy to the founder. You'll own our BD playbooks, mentor a team of two, and personally close strategic B2B accounts across India and recent global markets.

A note on ramp-up: Full team-leadership responsibilities (coaching direct reports, acting as backup on client calls) begin after a 6-month probation period, once you're fully ramped on our accounts and processes. Everything else in this role starts from day one.

What You'll Own

- Build the BD Playbook—Design end-to-end sales frameworks, outreach playbooks, and ICPs for corporates, startups, government bodies, and global targets.
- Expand into New Markets—Lead groundwork for international entry (UK, Middle East, SEA) and government/public sector tenders, partnering with the founder on localized pricing and positioning.
- Close Strategic Accounts—Personally drive 8–12 high-value deals from discovery call to signed contract, building relationships that open doors for renewals and upsells.
- Lead & Support the Team (post-probation)



— Coach two direct reports, maintain quality across outgoing pitches and proposals, and step in as backup on key client calls.
- Drive Pipeline & Handovers—Keep CRM updated, track conversion metrics, report monthly progress to the founder, and lead smooth handoffs to delivery.

-

What You Won't Touch

Content creation, editorial planning, design execution, SEO, website management, HR, or admin.

What We're Looking For

- 5–6 years of B2B business development/sales experience, strictly within advertising, marketing, digital, or creative agency ecosystems
- Proven track record—concrete proof of pipeline owned and B2B revenue personally generated
- Experience building lead-gen systems, pitch decks, and sales processes from scratch
- Hands-on experience mentoring junior sales talent
- Strong communicator, comfortable steering C-suite conversations and drafting proposals independently

-

Bonus: Public sector/government sales experience, prior international market expansion, AI prospecting tools, or a network in BFSI, EdTech, Healthcare, or FMCG.

Why WordBerries?

- Direct access to founders—fast decisions, zero corporate politics, high visibility
- Real ownership—build a growth engine from scratch, not manage a legacy playbook
- A rare shot at spearheading international expansion for a fast-growing agency, at this level
