6–12+ years India / UAE / USA · In-market preferred
Apply for this role →

About the role

Help build Nimbyl’s early commercial engine across manufacturers, commodity traders, brokers, finance providers and the broader physical-trade ecosystem.

This is not a traditional high-volume SaaS sales role.

It is a founder-led, consultative market-building role where understanding the customer and industry matters as much as selling the product.

What you’ll work on

  • Identify and prioritise ICP accounts across physical trade.
  • Build account maps across owners, traders, procurement, EXIM, finance, supply chain and operations teams.
  • Open new relationships through outbound, referrals, industry networks and partnerships.
  • Run structured discovery and qualification conversations.
  • Diagnose operational and commercial pain before proposing a solution.
  • Convert discovery into pilots, design partnerships and early commercial opportunities.
  • Structure pilot scope, success criteria and commercial proposals.
  • Develop channel relationships with brokers, finance providers, logistics companies and industry networks.
  • Support market-entry strategies across India, UAE and selected US markets.
  • Build repeatable outreach, qualification, CRM and follow-up processes.
  • Feed customer objections and market insights back into product strategy.
  • Represent Nimbyl at relevant industry events and ecosystem conversations.

Must have

  • Strong consultative or solution-selling experience.
  • Ability to sell complex B2B products or services involving multiple stakeholders.
  • Excellent discovery and questioning skills.
  • Strong account mapping and stakeholder management.
  • Ability to develop relationships from scratch without relying only on inbound demand.
  • Experience structuring pilots or complex commercial engagements.
  • Strong negotiation and commercial judgment.
  • Ability to manage long sales cycles and multiple stakeholders.
  • Strong written follow-up and CRM discipline.
  • Comfortable working directly with founders, owners and senior operators.
  • Ability to work without a mature sales playbook.

You’ll probably thrive here if…

  • You’re comfortable working with ambiguity and incomplete information.
  • You ask good questions before jumping to solutions.
  • You can operate independently without waiting for detailed instructions.
  • You take ownership of outcomes, not only assigned tasks.
  • You care about understanding physical trade, not just performing your function.
  • You’re comfortable building before a mature playbook exists.
  • You can move between strategic thinking and hands-on execution.
  • You communicate clearly when you disagree or see risk.

Education

Relevant professional experience matters more to us than a specific degree or pedigree.

We care more about demonstrated ability, domain understanding, judgment and the quality of your work.
