• Interact meaningfully with target account content through comments and replies to build warm relationships prior to direct outreach.
• Maintain accurate and current records of all engagement touchpoints within the CRM system alongside disciplined follow-up schedules to prevent leads from going cold.
• Compose initial drafts for LinkedIn posts based on case studies and engagement successes for CEO approval.
• Provide weekly updates regarding response metrics, meetings scheduled, sales pipeline progress, and insights into strategies that are effective or need adjustment.
• Support content and validation efforts by gathering information through interviews with delivery teams working on active projects.

Essential Qualifications

• Practical expertise with LinkedIn Sales Navigator including constructing saved searches and performing InMail outreach.
• Proficient use of CRM platforms such as HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zoho, or Salesforce for managing outreach and sales pipelines.
• Excellent command of written English to effectively craft outreach messages and content reflecting the company and CEO's style.
• Ability to work under performance metrics including response rates, meetings secured, and pipeline value.
• Must be located in Hyderabad or able to commute to the office.

Preferred Experience

• Background in writing technical or product-related content including content writing, technical documentation, or SaaS marketing.
• Familiarity with LinkedIn content scheduling tools, such as Taplio or equivalents.
• Experience working with offshore development or IT services delivery frameworks.

Screening and Success Metrics

Candidates will be required to complete a live exercise drafting a brief LinkedIn outreach message from a provided case study during the interview process. Success in the first 90 days is defined by establishing and actively managing five prospect lists on Sales Navigator, consistent and documented outreach cadence, publishing two approved LinkedIn posts weekly, and delivering a detailed monthly pipeline report for CEO review.
