The ideal candidate brings strong B2B sales instincts, a structured approach to operations, and the financial awareness to evaluate partner schemes and track ROI on commercial initiatives.

Key Responsibilities:

Ø Execute sales plans and partner engagement strategies, ensuring territory-level targets for applications, deposits, and conversions are met each intake.

Ø Manage day-to-day relationships with channel partners across all active territories, serving as a key point of contact for partner queries, escalations, and performance conversations.

Ø Supervise and support the Partner Specialist team (Inside Sales team) based in India — monitoring calling cadences, follow-up quality, partner coverage, and weekly output against set targets.

Ø Track and drive the conversion of offer letters to deposits through structured follow-up coordination with the Inside Sales team and channel partners.

Ø Monitor application pipelines across all territories on a case-by-case basis; coordinate with Business Unit teams to ensure timely and accurate processing and flag delays proactively

Ø Conduct regular performance reviews with Regional Managers and Regional Officers to assess territory health, identify underperforming markets, and implement corrective action plans.

Ø Executing quarterly partner review meetings — preparing performance data, regional summaries, and intake-wise comparisons in advance.

Ø Participate in international trips and partner visits as required to build relationships, gather market intelligence, and support regional teams in the field.

Ø Assist in the design and rollout of partner incentive schemes by providing territory-level data inputs, tracking uptake and partner response, and reporting actual scheme performance against projected outcomes.

Ø Build and maintain MIS trackers and operational dashboards covering applications, deposits, conversions, partner activity, and Inside Sales metrics.

Ø Analyse regional market trends, competitor commission structures, and partner feedback to surface insights and recommendations for scheme adjustments or new growth initiatives.

Ø Support ROI tracking for active commission and incentive programmes — maintaining cost-per-student data and flagging variances against projected payback periods.

Ø Coordinate with BU Managers and SMEs to ensure the team is updated on partner developments, university changes, curriculum updates, and eligibility requirements for key markets.

Ø Assist in planning region-specific marketing and recruitment campaigns in coordination with Partners and Events teams.

Ø Perform in-depth analysis of country-specific curriculum patterns and eligibility requirements for top universities to support partner briefings and team training.

Ø Ensure alignment between the field team and India-based operations, bridging communication gaps and maintaining a single, consistent view of territory performance.
