Job Description

As a Sales Manager you will evaluate sales opportunities in multiple domains like BFSI, Telecom etc. Your exposure to Solution Sales/ Consulting environment or financial services will differentiate you from the rest.

This combination of data, scores and software allow businesses to make accurate, fair and quick credit decisions.
