- TartanHQ is looking for a Senior Enterprise Sales Manager to drive new business acquisition across West India.
- You will own the full sales cycle - from identifying and qualifying prospects to closing annual recurring revenue (ARR) deals with mid-market and enterprise clients.
- This is not a farming or account management role.
- We need someone who can independently open doors, navigate complex multi-stakeholder organisations, and close deals within 45-60 day sales cycles.
- You will sell Tartan's full suite of solutions to HR, Finance, and IT decision-makers across industries.
- This is an on-site role based out of our Mumbai office, with regular travel to client locations across the region.
Key KPIs:
- Quarterly new ARR bookings against assigned quota.
- Pipeline coverage: maintain 3x quota at all times.
- Win rate on qualified opportunities (target: 25%+).
- Average deal cycle time: 45-60 days from first meeting to close.
- Number of net-new enterprise logos acquired per quarter.
- Self-sourced pipeline as a percentage of total pipeline (target: 60%+).
Day-to-Day Responsibilities:
- Your typical week involves a mix of prospecting, discovery calls, product demonstrations, and deal negotiations.
- You will spend time researching target accounts, mapping org structures, and identifying the right entry points - not waiting for inbound leads.
- You will run your own pipeline from first outreach through contract signature, coordinating with Solutions and Product teams for technical demos when needed.
- Expect 2-3 client meetings per week (in-person or virtual), weekly pipeline reviews with the CBO, and regular collaboration with marketing on account-based outreach.
- Travel to client offices is a regular part of the role.
Core Responsibilities:
New Business Acquisition (60% time allocation):
- Identify, qualify, and close new enterprise and mid-market accounts within your assigned geography.
- Build and execute account plans for target organisations - map decision-makers, understand buying processes, and create multi-threaded engagement strategies.
- Run the full sales cycle independently: prospecting, discovery, solution presentation, negotiation, and close.
- Sell Tartan's complete solutions portfolio to HR, Finance, and IT buyers - this is not a single-product role.
- Generate self-sourced pipeline through direct outreach, referrals, events, and personal network - not dependent on marketing-qualified leads.
- Consistently achieve and exceed quarterly and annual ARR quotas.
Pipeline Management & Deal Execution (25% time allocation):
- Maintain a healthy pipeline with 3x coverage at all times - qualify rigorously and disqualify early.
- Manage deal progression through structured stages with clear next steps and timelines.
- Prepare and present compelling business cases, ROI analyses, and commercial proposals.
- Navigate procurement, legal, and compliance processes within enterprise organisations.
- Accurately forecast revenue on a weekly and monthly basis using CRM.
Market Intelligence & Collaboration (15% time allocation):
- Provide structured feedback to Product and Marketing on market needs, competitive positioning, and objection patterns.
- Share best practices and playbooks with the broader sales team.
- Represent Tartan at industry events, conferences, and networking forums in your region.
- Collaborate with Solutions Engineering for technical demonstrations and proof-of-concept engagements.
Incentive Structure:
- This role offers a competitive base salary with a significant incentive component tied directly to your quota attainment:.
- Incentives kick in at 75% of quota - you don't need to hit 100% to start earning variable pay.
- At 100% quota attainment, your incentive payout is a substantial multiple of your base.
- Overachievement is rewarded aggressively - there is no cap on incentive earnings.
- Payouts are calculated quarterly on a cumulative basis, based on actual collections.
- We have designed this structure to reward top performers disproportionately.
- If you are confident in your ability to sell, the earning potential here significantly exceeds what a higher base salary at a larger company would offer.
Required Skills & Qualifications:
- 6-9 years of experience in B2B enterprise sales with a strong track record of closing ARR-based deals (not TCV, GMV, or one-time project revenue).
- Proven ability to independently source and close deals - you do not rely on inbound leads, MQLs, or ABM-generated pipeline to hit quota.
- Experience selling to mid-market and enterprise organisations with 45-60 day (or longer) sales cycles involving multiple stakeholders.
- Comfortable selling to C-suite and VP-level buyers across HR, Finance, and IT functions.
- Strong understanding of consultative and solution selling - you lead with business problems, not product features.
- Demonstrated annual ARR attainment in the range of - 60L- 1.5Cr or equivalent.
- Excellent verbal and written communication - can build a compelling narrative in proposals, emails, and presentations.
- Proficiency with CRM tools (Salesforce, HubSpot, or similar) for pipeline management and forecasting.
- Willingness to travel regularly to client locations within your assigned geography.
Preferred Skills:
- Prior experience selling into BFSI (Banking, Financial Services, Insurance) organisations.
- Background in selling SaaS, API-based, or fintech infrastructure products.
- Experience working at a growth-stage startup where you had to build processes alongside selling.
- Familiarity with HR tech, payroll, or financial data integration products.
- Existing relationships with CHROs, CFOs, or CTOs at mid-market and enterprise companies in India.
