Business Development Director | Global AI-Powered Tech Talent Platform

Are you a driven, strategic business builder who thrives on identifying new opportunities, building client relationships from the ground up, and closing meaningful partnerships? Do you want to play a core role in scaling a real AI-powered tech platform that’s already delivering results worldwide?

We’re hiring a Founding Director – Business Development to lead client growth, partnerships, and strategic expansion efforts at SkillsCapital — a fast-scaling platform that helps global companies hire fully vetted, on-demand enterprise tech talent.

This is not a traditional BD role. You won’t be chasing transactional deals — you’ll be co-creating solutions with consulting firms, enterprises, and global hiring teams using our AI-Powered Talent Cloud. You’ll work closely with the founders, take full ownership of revenue generation in your region or vertical, and help shape the future of our go-to-market engine.

💡 About SkillsCapital

SkillsCapital is one of the fastest-growing AI-powered platforms for global tech hiring. We help clients hire fully vetted, on-demand tech talent and teams across enterprise technologies like SAP, Salesforce, Microsoft, Oracle, AI/ML, Cloud, and more.

In just our first year, we’ve:

• Achieved strong product-market fit with global clients
• Delivered talent across the U.S., U.K., Europe, and the Middle East
• Built a profitable business with zero external funding
• Are set to cross a $2M+ run rate in the next quarter
• Successfully scaled from 0 → 1 and 1 → 10 — now building toward 10 → 100

Our leadership team includes alumni from Wharton, IIT Delhi, BITS Pilani, IIIT Hyderabad, and London Business School, and veterans from IBM, Accenture, Deloitte, PwC, Trilogy, and ESW Capital.

🧠 What You’ll Own

• Identify and pursue new business opportunities with global clients, consulting firms, and strategic partners
• Own end-to-end business development — from outreach and discovery to proposal, negotiation, and deal closure
• Position our AI-powered platform as a scalable solution for enterprise tech hiring
• Build and nurture long-term relationships with key decision-makers across industries
• Work closely with product, sourcing, and delivery teams to align solutions with client needs
• Lead GTM experiments across industries, geographies, and solution verticals
• Help build a predictable, repeatable BD motion that can scale globally

✅ Who Should Apply

• 2 to 5 years of experience in business development, sales, partnerships, or client-facing roles in B2B tech, enterprise consulting, or IT staffing
• Strong understanding of how to build client relationships, structure enterprise solutions, and close complex deals
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Strategic thinker who can act independently, yet collaborate deeply across teams
• Comfortable working in fast-paced, high-accountability startup environments
• Bonus: exposure to enterprise software, consulting, or global talent delivery models

💰 Compensation

• Minimal base salary to start
• Highly attractive incentive structure based on revenue contribution
• Significant equity opportunity for long-term wealth creation
• For top performers, total earnings can range from INR 1L to 10L+ per month, depending on performance
• This is not a role for someone expecting a high starting salary without results or ownership

Why You Should Apply / What’s In It For You

• Be part of the founding team of a high-growth AI startup with real product traction
• Take complete ownership of new business growth and expansion
• Work directly with experienced founders and global leadership
• Sell a differentiated, tech-powered solution with real client demand
• Learn faster, grow faster, and be rewarded for outcomes — not inputs
• Get in early and build long-term value through incentives and equity
• Join a culture focused on clarity, execution, and long-term trust
