About the role

ShramIN Jobs is building a platform to connect vocational and blue/grey-collar talent to employers at scale. We’re hiring a Sales Manager to grow platform revenue — advertising, premium listings, enterprise employer accounts, API/ATS integrations and strategic partnerships. The ideal candidate has direct experience selling job portals or marketplace/B2B platforms (examples: Apna, Naukri, WorkIndia, Indeed, IndiaMART) and understands monetization levers for online talent products.

Key responsibilities

·      Own new business acquisition and growth for ShramIN Jobs across enterprise and SMB segments (direct employers, staffing firms, educational partners, channel partners).

·      Sell the full product suite: job-posting credits, featured listings, employer branding packages, resume database access, API/ATS integrations, recruitment solutions and bespoke enterprise deals.

·      Develop territory and account plans; identify target verticals (manufacturing, services, retail, BPO, construction) and drive pipeline generation.

·      Respond to RFPs, prepare commercial proposals, negotiate contracts and close deals end-to-end.

·      Manage and grow strategic accounts — ensure adoption, deliver ROI reports, drive renewals and upsells.

·      Work with product and operations teams to translate client feedback into product improvements, pricing strategies and packaging.

·      Develop channel partnerships (training institutes, placement agencies, staffing partners) to increase supply and demand on the platform.

·      Maintain CRM discipline; produce accurate forecasts, weekly activity reports and monthly revenue reviews.

·      Represent ShramIN at industry events, conferences and employer forums to build brand and partnerships.

·      Mentor junior sales staff and contribute to building repeatable sales playbooks and pricing models.
