What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Business Development role where I can drive revenue growth and repeat business through enterprise sales, strategic partnerships, and strong account management—while collaborating cross-functionally and building teams to scale outcomes.

I’m a pragmatic, results-driven Business Development & Partnerships professional with 8+ years of experience driving revenue growth, enterprise sales, and strategic partnerships across IT Services, SaaS, EdTech, staffing, and travel.

In my current role as Growth & Partnerships Manager at Encred Analytics, I generate ₹1.5 Cr+ in annual revenue by acquiring new clients and expanding existing accounts. I’ve built and managed a network of 50+ recruitment partners, enabling 100+ hiring mandates annually, and I drive 60%+ repeat business through account expansion and relationship building.

Previously, I led revenue growth as a Business Development Manager at Rigi and Newton School delivering INR 85–90 Lakhs revenue and supporting 5% month-on-month growth by expanding hiring opportunities and partnerships. I’ve also mentored teams, improving sales effectiveness while supporting onboarding, retention, and monetization.

Earlier, I contributed to scaled growth at Unacademy (INR 3 Cr+ revenue) by guiding learners through program enrollment and strengthening renewals and referral-driven sales. I thrive on consultative selling, pipeline development, stakeholder management, and turning qualified opportunities into sustainable long-term growth.
