transformation bids — translating telecom operator channel and distribution challenges into

compelling, defensible solution narratives while collaborating closely with sales, delivery, and

product teams to drive business growth. This role sits at the intersection of deep channel operations

knowledge, commercial acumen, and the ability to influence both field operations heads and CXOlevel

stakeholders through clarity of thought and communication.

• Act as a subject matter expert on Comviva’s Sales & Distribution platform — providing credible, experience‑grounded guidance to clients and internal stakeholders across all S&D functional domains
• Demonstrate deep understanding of Dealer & Channel Management — including distributor hierarchies, channel partner onboarding, territory management, credit and commission management, and SLA‑driven performance frameworks Architect solutions for Point of Sale and Field Force Automation — covering assisted and unassisted sales flows, trade promotion execution, beat planning, retailer engagement, and real‑time stock visibility for on‑ground sales teams
• Design end‑to‑end Inventory and Warehouse Management solutions — including SIM and device kitting workflows, stock allocation, replenishment logic, returns management, and multi‑warehouse orchestration

• Build program effort models and delivery timelines aligned to contract milestones, reflecting realistic go‑live phasing across channel, geography, and functional rollout sequences
• Coach internal bid teams and client stakeholders on transformation risk — particularly around channel cutover complexity, distributor data migration, parallel operations management, and change adoption across field force
