• Build and maintain strong relationships with prospective and existing clients.
• Conduct client meetings and site visits to understand requirements and identify business opportunities.

• Graduate in any discipline.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
• Fluent in both Hindi and English, with the ability to communicate professionally with clients.
• Proven ability to independently generate leads rather than relying solely on company-provided enquiries.
• Strong negotiation, persuasion, and closing skills.
• Confident and professional personality.
• Strong networking and relationship-building abilities.
• Ability to work independently and take ownership of targets.
• Willingness to travel locally for client meetings and site visits.
• Own two-wheeler/four-wheeler and a valid driving licence is required.
• Candidates with existing contacts or networks among architects, builders, contractors, property developers, homeowners, or corporate clients will be preferred.
• Experience in interior design, interior decoration, construction, real estate, furniture, modular kitchens, home improvement, or related industries will be an advantage.

What We Offer

• Competitive fixed salary based on experience and suitability.
• Performance-based incentives/commission linked to business generated and conversions.
• Opportunity to work directly with the Owner and take significant responsibility for business growth.
• A role with substantial scope for professional and financial growth based on performance.
• Exposure to a wide range of residential and commercial interior projects.

Important Note

This is a business-development-focused position. The successful candidate will be expected to actively generate their own leads, develop a strong local network, and convert opportunities into business. Candidates seeking a role based primarily on receiving company-generated leads may not be suitable for this position.
