big company seeks "intra-preneur" in Delhi
January 25, 2014 2:50 PM

I work for a large, industry-leading company in B2B chemical/mechanical equipment, with presence in 60+ countries. The company is launching a spin-off in Delhi for B2-small-B sales and distribution. We're looking for someone to be an "intra-preneur" on the ground. This is the IDEAL opportunity for someone who sees themselves as entrepreneurial, but isn't quite ready to take the leap solo, whether it is for cultural expectations, concerns about funding a start-up, or whatever.

Excuse me for not publicly announcing exactly which company and which field but this is a very competitive industry and the project is still hush-hush. I'll be happy to talk about it further if you send me an e-mail, ideally with a URL for linkedin or a CV.


The full description:
=======

The business development is the next step in launching a spinoff with a new business model to bring industrial equipment to small-scale craftsmen. The aim is to reach clients that are not currently served by our organization. This new approach will bring clients quality, affordable services while allowing them to develop their skills. This global company’s growing importance in India motivates us to find new ways to support the growth of local businesses and communities in these regions.

As a leader in business development, you should be ready to identify and bring in the best partners for the supply chain in this new model’s distribution network.
