About the Role

This is primarily a sales and business development role — not an export documentation role.

You will identify potential international buyers, connect with them through email, LinkedIn, WhatsApp and telephone, introduce our products, share catalogues and quotations, follow up on opportunities and work towards converting prospects into orders.

We will provide you with leads and target customers. At the same time, you will also be expected to research and generate new buyer opportunities independently.

• Research companies and identify the appropriate purchasing, sourcing or business decision-makers.
• Approach buyers through email, LinkedIn, WhatsApp and telephone calls.
• Introduce the company and its products professionally.
• Share product catalogues, presentations, prices and other relevant information.
• Arrange telephone/video conversations with interested buyers.
• Lead GenerationIndependently identify potential importers, distributors, wholesalers, retailers, buying houses and other B2B customers.
• Research potential customers using LinkedIn, Google, trade directories, B2B platforms and other online sources.
• Identify relevant decision-makers within target organisations.
• Build and continuously expand the international buyer database.
• Follow-up & Sales ConversionFollow up consistently with prospective buyers.
• Understand buyer requirements, products of interest, quantities, pricing expectations and timelines.
• Coordinate preparation of quotations and product information.

This is an active sales role. We are looking for someone who enjoys talking to customers and pursuing opportunities, rather than waiting for enquiries to come in.

Who We Are Looking ForYou could be a good fit if you:

• Have 0–3 years of experience in International Sales, Export Sales, Business Development, Inside Sales or B2B Sales.
• Are comfortable speaking with international customers over telephone/video calls.
• Have strong spoken and written English.
• Can write professional but persuasive sales emails.
• Are comfortable using LinkedIn for prospecting.
• Can communicate professionally through WhatsApp.
• Are persistent with follow-ups without becoming intrusive.
• Are comfortable with targets and sales accountability.
• Can independently research companies and potential customers.
• Have basic proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets and online research.
• Are comfortable learning and using CRM and AI tools.

Freshers Can Also Apply.

We are open to strong fresh graduates with excellent communication skills, confidence and a genuine interest in international B2B sales.

Prior export experience is an advantage but not mandatory.

Preferred Background

Candidates with exposure to any of the following would be particularly relevant:

• Export Sales
• International Business Development
• International Inside Sales
• B2B Sales
• Overseas Client Acquisition
• Lead Generation
• Import/Export companies
• Home décor / Handicrafts
• Furniture / Furnishings
• Fashion / Textiles / Apparel
• Lifestyle products
• Consumer products

What This Role Is NOT

This is not primarily an export documentation, logistics or shipping coordination position.

Knowledge of export procedures is useful, but your primary responsibility will be:

Finding buyers + starting conversations + developing relationships + generating orders.

Performance MeasuresYour performance will be measured through:

• New international buyers identified
• Buyers contacted
• Buyer conversations generated
• Qualified sales opportunities
• Catalogues/quotations shared
• Samples/enquiries generated
• Follow-up effectiveness
• New customers acquired
• Orders converted
• Export sales generated

Performance from both company-provided leads and self-generated leads will be tracked.

What You Will Learn

You will get hands-on exposure to the complete international B2B sales cycle:

Market Research → Lead Generation → International Prospecting → Buyer Communication → Product Presentation → Negotiation → Export Sales → Customer Relationship Development

For a high performer, this role can grow into International Business Development Manager / Export Sales Manager responsibilities.
