Sales Manager

Location: Whitefield, Bangalore

Work Mode: On-site

Compensation: ₹9–12 LPA

Employment Type: Full-time

About the Role

We are looking for a hands-on Sales Manager who will be responsible for both leading the sales team and personally driving sales.

This is a player-coach role — you will not only manage, coach, and monitor the team's performance but will also work as an Individual Contributor (IC), actively generating leads, making cold calls, conducting follow-ups, handling sales conversations, and closing deals yourself.

You will take ownership of the end-to-end sales funnel and revenue, while simultaneously ensuring the team achieves its targets.

Key Responsibilities

● Own the end-to-end sales funnel — from lead generation and qualification to conversion and closure.

● Lead, manage, and motivate the sales team to consistently achieve their targets.

● Personally contribute to sales as an Individual Contributor (IC) by making cold calls, following up with prospects, conducting sales conversations, negotiating, and closing deals.

● Build, manage, and continuously improve the team's sales pipeline.

● Set and drive individual and team sales targets, ensuring targets are consistently met.

● Classify and prioritize leads based on their stage and intent — Cold, Warm, and Hot — and ensure the team focuses on high-potential opportunities.

● Monitor key sales metrics including leads, follow-ups, conversion rates, pipeline value, and revenue.

● Identify gaps in the sales funnel and implement strategies to improve conversion and sales velocity.





● Identify and develop new lead-generation channels and opportunities for business growth.

● Coach team members through regular reviews, call guidance, performance tracking, and sales training.

● Work closely with the marketing team to improve lead quality and sales conversions.

● Take ownership of the execution of sales and marketing events, including planning, coordination, lead generation, and post-event conversion.

● Regularly report sales performance, pipeline status, challenges, and opportunities to management.

What We're Looking For

● 3–6 years of experience in sales, business development, or a similar role.

● Prior experience managing or leading a sales team is preferred.

● Proven experience in individual sales and closing, not just team management.

● Strong understanding of sales funnels, lead qualification, follow-ups, and conversions.

● Comfortable with cold calling and direct sales.

● Strong target orientation with the ability to work toward individual and team revenue goals.

● Excellent communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.

● Ability to analyze sales data and take corrective action based on performance.

● Proactive mindset with the ability to identify and create new sales opportunities.

● Comfortable working in a rapid-paced, on-site environment.

What You'll Own

Team Leadership + Individual Sales + Revenue

Lead Generation → Lead Qualification → Sales Pipeline → Follow-ups → Conversions

→ Revenue

This is a player-coach role. You won't just manage the sales team — you will actively sell,

lead from the front, and own the number.
