We are seeking a Material Sales Manager to drive material sales across Kerala by working directly with professionals in our network. This role focuses on building strong professional relationships, identifying upcoming material requirements, pitching Kolo's products across categories, and closing bulk orders. The manager will also coordinate with the material supply team to ensure smooth order fulfillment from purchase to delivery.

  • Finishing materials (paints, flooring, wall finishes)
  • Plumbing & sanitary (pipes, fittings, sanitaryware, fixtures)
  • Electrical & hardware (wiring, switches, doors, windows, fittings)
  • Interior & designer materials (plywood, laminates, veneers, decorative surfaces, lighting)
  • Develop accounts into long-term, repeat-order partners.
  • Consistently achieve monthly and quarterly sales targets.
  • Relationship Building & Account Management
  • Maintain deep relationships with professionals to become their go-to sourcing partner.
  • Understand project pipelines and proactively identify upcoming material requirements.
  • Provide timely information on rates, availability, and alternatives to support project execution.
  • Order Fulfillment & Coordination
  • Capture material requirements, confirm orders, and coordinate handover to the material supply team.
  • Ensure smooth execution from procurement through logistics and delivery.
  • Resolve supply-side issues quickly to build trust and ensure repeat business.
  • Market Intelligence & Growth
  • Track price movements, new product launches, and competitor activity.
  • Share market feedback with the central team to strengthen product offerings and vendor partnerships.
  • Identify opportunities for cross-category sales and bulk deals.

Who Should Apply
