- Bring 10+ years of experience, with a consistent record of winning new logos in enterprise sales.

- Has proven wins with Energy, Resources or Public Sector clients - closed enterprise deals with energy, metals or mining companies, PSUs, government bodies or development-sector organisations. This sector exposure is a requirement of the role, not a preference.

- Come from an executive search or recruitment firm, or from a solution-selling company such as RPO, HR Tech or B2B services.

- Understand public procurement and tender-led selling; experience with RFPs, EOIs and GeM is a strong advantage.

- Have an established network of CHROs and Talent Acquisition Heads, and be able to open doors at that level from day one.

- Communicate with clarity and confidence, in writing and in person, and be comfortable presenting business cases to CXO audiences.

- Negotiate commercials and contracts with confidence, and manage several stakeholders on a single deal.

- Work with discipline in a CRM, with accurate pipeline and forecasting.

- Be based in Delhi NCR or the wider region, and be willing to travel to client locations as the account base requires - local candidates only.

- Hold an MBA or a BE / BTech; a degree from a Tier-1 institute is preferred.
