1. Supplier Sourcing & Verification

· Source MSME suppliers within the assigned district/cluster, prioritizing anchor-nominated vendor lists over cold outreach

· Conduct physical factory/site visits to verify production capacity, operational status, and general business legitimacy before onboarding

· Cross-reference Udyam registration data, District Industries Centre (DIC) records, and industry association lists to build and refine the local supplier database

2. KYC & Documentation

· Guide suppliers through KYC submission, empanelment forms, and required documentation

· Ensure document completeness and accuracy before handing off to the credit/underwriting team

· Maintain onboarding records and supplier profiles in the platform system

3. Anchor-Linked Onboarding

· Work anchor-nominated supplier lists as the first priority for outreach and onboarding, since these convert faster and carry lower relationship risk

· Coordinate with the Cluster Head on which anchors' vendor lists to prioritize week to week

· Maintain basic working relationships with anchor-side procurement contacts where needed to resolve vendor-list queries

4. First-Transaction Facilitation

· Support suppliers through their first financed transaction — from application through disbursement — as the primary point of contact on the ground

· Flag any delivery, quality, or documentation issues early, before they become disputes or delays

· Facilitate repeat transactions with suppliers who have completed a clean first cycle

5. Reporting & Coordination

· Report onboarding pipeline status, drop-offs,



and blockers to the Cluster Head on a weekly basis (or more frequently if requested)

· Escalate credit backlog, supplier complaints, or anchor-side issues promptly rather than letting them sit

· Participate in weekly team huddles/reviews

Required Qualifications & Experience

· Graduate degree in any discipline (Commerce, Business Administration, or Engineering preferred but not mandatory)

· 1-4 years of field sales, field credit, vendor development, or supply chain-facing experience — banking/NBFC field collections or business correspondent experience is a strong plus

· Prior experience with MSME-facing roles (vendor onboarding, micro-lending, trade finance field verification) is highly valued

· Working knowledge of the local district's industrial base is an advantage — familiarity with the relevant sector (electronics, ferro-alloys, pharma, agri/aqua processing, depending on district) helps credibility with suppliers

Required Skills

· Local language fluency (Telugu) plus working proficiency in English for documentation and reporting

· Comfortable with extensive daily local travel, including to semi-urban and rural industrial areas

· Basic digital literacy — comfortable using a mobile/tablet-based onboarding and KYC app

· Strong interpersonal skills — building trust with small business owners who may be wary of recent financial relationships

· Attention to detail — documentation errors at this stage cause downstream credit delays

· Resilience and self-management — this is a field-first role with significant independent daily planning

Pay: ₹10,000.00 - ₹31,000.00 per month
