Marketing Field Executive

Company (Payroll): Forbes Technologies Private Limited

Designation: Management Trainee – Field Sales

Location: Hyderabad (Current Openings: LB Nagar & Old City)

Employment Type: Full-time (Monday to Saturday)

## Job Overview

We are looking for energetic, self-motivated, and target-driven Management Trainees to join our dynamic Field Sales team in Hyderabad. In this role, you will represent our client, acting as the face of the company on the ground. Your primary responsibility will be to pitch and secure placements for our client’s retail machines in local shops.

This is an excellent opportunity for freshers (Graduates and MBAs) to kickstart their careers in corporate sales and business development.

The Role

As a Management Trainee , you will be at the heart of building India's most ambitious retail-tech platform. This is not a back-bench, shadow role — you will own real work from Day 1, rotating across our key functions: Sales & Brand Onboarding, Retailer Acquisition & Growth, Trade Marketing Operations, and Product & Analytics.

You will work directly with Founders and functional heads, gaining end-to-end exposure to a startup building at the intersection of FMCG distribution, technology, and data. If you have the hunger to learn fast, a commercial mindset, and a passion for India's retail economy — this role is for you.
