About Klovant Tech
Klovant Tech is an integrated growth infrastructure company that unifies software development, digital marketing, and talent staffing into one AI-enhanced growth engine. Based in Hyderabad, we serve clients across India, the US, the Middle East, and Europe.

We are hiring a Business Development Executive who is sharp, articulate, and genuinely interested in understanding how businesses grow — not someone who wants to cold-call from a script and hit a dial count. If you are the kind of person who reads about startups for fun, understands what SaaS means, and gets excited about helping companies solve real problems, this role is for you.

What You Will Do
Your job is to identify, engage, and qualify potential clients for Klovant Tech’s services — application development, digital marketing, staffing, design, funnel development, and support. You will be the first point of contact for many prospects, and the quality of that first impression will directly impact Klovant’s revenue growth.

• Lead Generation & Prospecting: Research and identify potential clients across target industries (SaaS, e-commerce, healthcare, fintech, real estate, marketing agencies). Use LinkedIn, Apollo, ZoomInfo, or similar tools to build targeted prospect lists. Your goal is to find companies that need what Klovant offers — not spray and pray.
• Outreach & Engagement: Write and send personalized outreach messages via LinkedIn, email, and WhatsApp. This is not template blasting. You will craft messages that reference the prospect’s specific business, their recent news, or a pain point visible on their website. We will train you on frameworks, but genuine curiosity is something you bring yourself.
• Discovery Calls: Conduct initial conversations with prospects to understand their challenges, timelines, and budgets. Ask smart questions. Listen more than you talk. Qualify whether there is a genuine fit before passing the opportunity to the senior team.
• CRM Management: Log every interaction in our CRM (GoHighLevel). Maintain clean pipeline data — deal stages, notes, follow-up dates, and contact details. Leadership should be able to open the CRM at any time and see exactly where every opportunity stands.
• Proposal Support: Assist in preparing proposals, pitch decks, and case study presentations for qualified prospects. You will work with the marketing and delivery teams to tailor each proposal to the client’s specific needs.
• Market Research: Track competitors, industry trends, and new market opportunities. Identify patterns in what prospects are asking for and feed those insights back to the team. You are Klovant’s eyes and ears in the market.
• Partnership Development: Identify and initiate conversations with potential referral partners, complementary agencies, and technology partners. Build relationships that create inbound lead channels over time.
• Event & Networking Support: Represent Klovant at local industry events, startup meetups, and networking sessions in Hyderabad and virtually. Build genuine connections — not just collect business cards.

Who You Are
You have completed a degree in Business, Marketing, Communications, or a related field — or you have equivalent experience through internships, freelance work, or entrepreneurial ventures. We are open to fresh graduates who demonstrate exceptional communication skills and commercial instinct.

You are genuinely interested in technology and business. You understand, at least at a basic level, what software development involves, what digital marketing does, and why companies hire staffing firms. You do not need to be an expert — but you should not be starting from zero either.

You communicate with clarity and confidence. Whether it is a LinkedIn message, a discovery call, or an email follow-up, you express ideas in a way that feels professional and human, never robotic or overly salesy. You know the difference between being persistent and being annoying.

You handle rejection well. Business development involves hearing “no” frequently. You do not take it personally. You learn from it, refine your approach, and move forward.

You are self-motivated and accountable. You do not need someone watching over your shoulder to stay productive. You set your own daily targets, track your own numbers, and hold yourself to a standard higher than what is expected.

Skills & Tools
Required: – Excellent verbal and written communication in English – Strong interpersonal skills — you are someone people enjoy talking to – Basic understanding of B2B sales processes and IT services – Comfort with LinkedIn as a professional networking and outreach tool – Ability to research companies and identify decision-makers – Proficiency with Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Slides) – Organized, detail-oriented, and reliable with follow-ups

Preferred (not mandatory — we will train you): – Experience with any CRM tool (HubSpot, GoHighLevel, Salesforce, Zoho) – Familiarity with sales outreach tools (Apollo, Lusha, LinkedIn Sales Navigator) – Experience writing proposals or pitch decks – Understanding of the IT services or digital agency landscape – Prior experience in any client-facing role (sales, customer service, account management)

What You Will Get
Direct founder access: You will report directly to the Founder and Business Head. This is not a role where you are buried three levels deep in a hierarchy. You will have a front-row seat to how business decisions are made, how clients are won, and how a company scales.

Full-service understanding: Because Klovant offers development, marketing, staffing, design, funnels, and support, you will learn to sell complex, multi-service engagements — a skillset that is worth significantly more in the market than single-product sales experience.

Revenue impact from day one: Your work directly generates pipeline and revenue. You will see the connection between your outreach on Monday and a signed contract two weeks later. That feedback loop is what makes this role accelerate your career faster than most entry-level positions.

Growth path: Prove you can generate pipeline and close conversations, and you will move into a senior BDE or account management role within 12 to 18 months. Top performers at Klovant earn fast promotions and expanded responsibilities — including managing client relationships and leading proposals independently.

Compensation: Base salary plus performance-based incentives. Your earning potential grows directly with your results.
