Business Head – Wealth Vertical

Location: Bengaluru

About The Company

A fast-growing Bengaluru-based wealthtech company building an app-first investment advisory and portfolio management platform for Indian retail investors. Its subscription-led wealth product bridges the gap between mutual fund distribution and ultra-HNI portfolio management by combining investment research, advisory, and technology. Operating as a SEBI-registered Research Analyst, the company is positioned in one of India's fastest-growing wealthtech segments.

The Opportunity

This is a high-impact business leadership role created to scale an existing ~₹400 crore AUM business into a multi-thousand-crore platform over the next two years.

The role is primarily focused on business growth and sales leadership, rather than investment research. You will work closely with the Founder & CEO and lead the existing team across sales, research, and operations, with sales being the primary area of ownership.

Key Responsibilities

Build & Scale the Sales Engine

  • Own and optimize the end-to-end customer acquisition funnel across direct sales, telesales, field sales, and partnerships.
  • Identify the highest-impact growth channels and build a scalable, repeatable sales engine.
  • Drive significant growth in AUM and revenue through strong execution and commercial leadership.

Lead the Commercial Function

  • This is an 80% sales-focused leadership role with overall oversight of the research and operations teams.
  • Lead the sales organization while ensuring alignment across research, sales, and operations.
  • Establish clear operating rhythms, performance metrics, and accountability across functions.
  • Build a customer-first culture where every client interaction strengthens trust and long-term relationships.

Business & P&L Ownership

  • Own the business revenue and overall P&L.
  • Drive strategic initiatives to improve customer acquisition, conversion, retention, and business profitability.
  • Monitor business performance and make data-driven decisions to achieve aggressive growth targets.

Build for Scale

  • Strengthen processes, team capabilities, and execution as the business grows.
  • Partner closely with leadership on business strategy and execution priorities.
  • Thrive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment with high ownership and ambiguity.

Ideal Candidate

  • 8–12 years of experience in B2C financial services sales or business leadership.
  • Experience in wealth management, broking, mutual fund distribution, investment advisory, or insurance distribution.
  • Demonstrated track record of scaling AUM or revenue from tens of crores to hundreds of crores through personal business ownership.
  • Strong direct sales leadership experience with the ability to oversee cross-functional teams across sales, research, and operations.
  • Experience owning business metrics, revenue targets, and commercial outcomes.
  • Comfortable building teams, processes, and operating models in a high-growth environment.

Preferred Experience

  • Experience in wealthtech or broking is preferred but not mandatory.
  • Strong understanding of retail investment products, customer acquisition, and advisory-led businesses.
  • Prior experience working in a startup or high-growth organization.

Not a Fit

  • Pure equity research or PMS professionals without business ownership or sales leadership experience.
  • Leaders who have only managed large, well-established sales organizations without building businesses from the ground up.
  • Performance marketing or growth marketing professionals without end-to-end commercial ownership.
