Business Development Manager — SaaS & Professional Services
Hiring entity: Biztree Outsourcing Pvt. Ltd., Pune Location: Pune (on-site, with field visits across Pune–PCMC–Mumbai)
About the role
We are a CA-led group running three distinct revenue lines out of Pune:
Outsourced accounting, payroll and compliance — retainer engagements for IT/ITES companies, engineering firms, startups, agencies and freelancers. We are a Zoho Finance Authorised Partner for implementation, migration and ongoing operations.
A practice-management SaaS product — subscription software used by CA, CS and CMA firms to manage leads, proposals, onboarding, work allocation and billing.
A business registration and compliance platform — company/LLP incorporation, licences and recurring statutory filings, sold at volume to first-time founders and SMEs.
The product is built, the websites are live, content and campaigns are already running. What we need now is one person who owns revenue: takes a lead from first touch to signed engagement letter or paid subscription, and does it consistently every month.
This is a founder-facing role with no layers in between. You will have direct influence on pricing, positioning and what we build next.
What you will do
Pipeline generation — approx. 40% of your time
Build and work outbound lists: ICAI/ICSI member directories, MCA data, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, MIDC and MCCIA member lists, incubators and startup communities.
Run and follow up on LinkedIn outreach and cold email sequences (tooling is already in place).
Respond to inbound website enquiries within 15 minutes during business hours.
Represent us at CA study circles, industry association meets, startup events and trade expos in Pune and Mumbai.
Build a referral engine with CAs, CSs, lawyers, bankers and IT consultants.
Discovery and solutioning — approx. 25%
Qualify every lead against a defined framework (budget, decision-maker, current pain, timeline) and disqualify quickly.
Run live product demos of the SaaS platform without needing support.
Scope accounting and payroll engagements with the delivery team; understand transaction volumes, headcount and statutory scope well enough to price correctly.
Prepare proposals, pricing sheets and scope-of-work documents.
Closing and handover — approx. 20%
Negotiate commercials, handle objections, and secure signed engagement letters or activated subscriptions.
Run a structured handover to the onboarding and delivery team so nothing is lost between sale and service.
Own collection of the first invoice.
Systems and reporting — approx. 15%
Keep the CRM current daily. If it is not in the CRM, it did not happen.
Weekly pipeline review and monthly forecast with the founder.
Feed objections, lost-deal reasons and competitor intelligence back into marketing and product.
Preferred
Prior sales experience at Zoho, Tally, ClearTax, Marg, Refrens, Vyapar, Khatabook, Busy or a comparable Indian B2B software company.
Experience selling to CA, CS or CMA firms — this is our hardest and most valuable buyer.
B.Com / M.Com / MBA, or a semi-qualified CA/CS who has moved into a commercial role.
Working familiarity with Zoho Books, Zoho Payroll and Zoho CRM.
Who this role is not for
Anyone who needs a fully warm inbound pipeline handed to them.
Anyone uncomfortable with cold outreach or with being measured monthly.
