• Build and cultivate strategic relationships with C-level and senior leadership in global capability centers (GCCs), IT, BFSI, Industrial Technology, and life sciences sectors.

• Convert identified whitespace accounts in India, existing global clients with Indian operations not yet under Magnit’s India program.

• Develop and deliver compelling proposals, pitches, and business cases that align with client workforce strategies and Magnit’s unique value proposition.

• Lead the end-to-end sales lifecycle, including prospecting, client engagement, RFx process management, solutioning, commercial negotiation, and contract finalization.

• Represent Magnit at regional industry events, HR/Procurement forums, and professional associations to build brand visibility and credibility in the APAC market.

• Stay current on regional labor trends, compliance risks, and market developments to inform client conversations and refine market approach.

• Proven ability to manage complex enterprise sales cycles, especially with matrixed stakeholders and multi-geography operations.

• Deep understanding of regional contingent workforce dynamics, labor laws, and operational challenges unique to India and neighboring APAC countries.

• A consultative sales approach with the ability to understand client strategy, design relevant workforce programs, and articulate ROI.

• Track record of exceeding revenue targets, building new markets, and influencing global stakeholders for regional adoption.

• Ability to operate independently in a high-growth environment, build pipeline from the ground up, and drive strategic outcomes.

• Strong proposal writing, presentation, and communication skills, with experience navigating RFx and complex B2B negotiations.
