• Strong pre‑existing relationships with senior leaders in corporates, and major training institutions – especially in India, with global exposure being a strong plus.

• A closer

  — proven ability to pitch, negotiate, and deliver volume-based signups.

• Metrics-driven:

  not just closing MoUs, but ensuring student enrolments happen.

• Global / Regional Knowledge:

  Understanding of enterprise education markets, regulatory / accreditation requirements in different geographies; able to adapt strategy accordingly.
