Project Head Mountain Mist, Sakleshpur

SmartAgro Pvt Ltd | Full time | Bengaluru + Sakleshpur site | Reports to CEO Version

About the project

Mountain Mist is a coffee-estate resort project in Sakleshpur, Karnataka, developed by SmartAgro: buyers own a registered plot with a cottage, a hospitality brand operates the resort, and SmartAgro administers the estate. Premium product, HNI/NRI buyers, ticket size above 2.5 Cr.

The role

You take Mountain Mist to be sold-out with clean approvals. You own sales, marketing and the approvals calendar end to end, close the first batch of buyers personally, and run the project day to day reporting to the CEO.

What you will own

Sales

- Build and convert the HNI/NRI pipeline for 50+ premium cottage-plots.
- Design and run the pre-launch EOI programme; convert to registered plot sales at launch.
- Personally lead site visits, negotiations and closings for the first batch.
- Hire and run a small team: relationship managers, pre-sales, post-sales/CRM.
- Own the weekly numbers: site visits, bookings, collections.

Marketing
- Estate story, positioning and content using our own estate and team — no stock imagery.
- Build the channel-partner network across Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Mumbai and NRI corridors.
- Plan and run each batch launch. Every claim is evidence-led and ASCI-compliant.

Approvals & legal (manage, not practise)
- Drive land conversion, resort NOC and RERA registration through our lawyers, liaison agents and government offices. Own the calendar, dates and follow-up.
- Coordinate sale and construction agreement drafting with our legal counsel.

Partners
- Day-to-day counterpart to the feasibility consultant, architect/engineer and shortlisted hospitality brands until the brand is signed.





First 90 days

- Day 30: approvals calendar mapped with dates; EOI programme designed and approved; channel-partner list live; CRM fields set up.
- Day 60: EOI campaign live, first EOIs collected; RERA filing pack in preparation; brand shortlist in hand.
- Day 90: EOI pipeline at batch-1 size; launch date fixed against the approvals timeline; first RM and pre-sales hires on board.

You must have

- 10–15 years in premium residential, second-home or resort-villa sales.
- At least one Western Ghats or Karnataka hill project (Sakleshpur, Chikmagalur, Coorg, Wayanad) sold end to end, with buyer references we can call.
- Personal closing record at ticket sizes above 2.5 Cr with HNI/NRI buyers.
- Hands-on experience with Karnataka land conversion, resort NOC and RERA plotted/villa registration.
- Worked alongside a hotel brand or operator on a managed-villa or branded-residence product.
- Fluent Kannada and English. Hindi or Telugu a plus.
- Willing to be on site at Sakleshpur every weekend.

You are

- An executor with numbers to show — units, ticket, collections, timelines.
- Comfortable in an HNI drawing room and in a taluk office on the same day.
- Someone who says "to confirm" instead of inventing a figure, and never promises a buyer a guaranteed return.

What we offer

- Competitive fixed salary plus a performance-linked variable on collections and approval milestones.
- Direct line to the CEO, full ownership of the project, and a clear path to lead SmartAgro's next hospitality project.
