How You Fit In

We are looking for a driven and entrepreneurial Sales Leader to spearhead Bidgely’s growth in India. This is a high-impact, individual contributor role where you will own the end-to-end sales cycle — from prospecting and relationship building to deal closure — with both state-owned DISCOMs and private utilities across the country. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, can navigate the complexities of selling to large public and private sector organizations, and is passionate about the energy transition and digital transformation of utilities.

What You’ll Do

• Identify, pursue, and close new business opportunities with state-owned DISCOMs and private utilities across India
• Build and manage a robust sales pipeline aligned to annual revenue targets
• Lead end-to-end sales cycles including prospecting, discovery, proposal, negotiation, and contract closure

Consultative Selling

• Develop a deep understanding of each utility’s operational challenges, digital transformation priorities, and regulatory context
• Position Bidgely’s UtilityAITM solutions — including customer engagement, energy efficiency, EV analytics, grid analytics, energy theft detection, and demand response — as strategic solutions to utility pain points
• Conduct compelling product demonstrations and executive-level presentations tailored to each stakeholder’s priorities

Stakeholder Engagement

• Build and nurture C-level and senior leadership relationships across technical, commercial, and regulatory functions within target accounts
• Navigate complex, multi-stakeholder procurement processes common in government and large private enterprises
• Collaborate with government bodies, regulatory authorities, and industry associations to stay close to policy developments affecting the utility sector

Market Intelligence & Strategy

• Monitor the Indian utility landscape including policy shifts, smart metering rollouts, RDSS scheme progress, and energy transition mandates
• Provide actionable market feedback to Bidgely’s product and leadership teams to inform go‑to‑market strategy for the India market
• Identify partnership opportunities with system integrators, consultants, and other ecosystem players

Cross-functional Collaboration

• Work closely with Bidgely’s global product, pre‑sales, and delivery teams to ensure seamless handoffs and successful implementations
• Represent Bidgely at industry conferences, utility forums, and government events

What Makes You Successful

Experience

• 10–15 years of overall experience in B2B enterprise sales, with at least 5 years selling to utilities, power sector companies, or government energy organizations in India
• Demonstrated track record of closing large, complex deals with long sales cycles in the public sector and/or regulated industries
• Experience selling SaaS, analytics, or technology solutions is strongly preferred; experience with smart metering, AMI, or energy management platforms is a plus

Skills & Competencies

• Strong consultative sales approach — ability to understand business problems and map solutions, not just sell products
• Excellent communicator and storyteller, capable of engaging both technical teams and C‑suite executives
• Self‑starter with high ownership mindset; ability to work independently with minimal supervision
• Strong commercial acumen with the ability to structure deals, handle procurement negotiations, and navigate government tendering processes
• Familiarity with India’s utility regulatory landscape (CERC, SERCs, BEE mandates, RDSS scheme, etc.) is a significant advantage

Travel

• Must be willing and able to travel extensively across India to meet with utility clients, attend industry events, and build relationships on the ground
