About the Company
Nurim Technologies Pvt Ltd, operating as NurimTech.ai, is a Pune-based AI and cloud strategy firm focused on helping organizations evolve through technology, leadership, and learning. The company works with enterprises, startups, and government organizations across India and internationally, and it follows an AI-first, cloud-first, people-first approach.
The business is built around three main areas: executive leadership and technology SME hiring through its partnership with Antal International; capability building and corporate training through its partnership with Henry Harvin; and AI and cloud consulting through NurimTech.ai services. It also has an AI engineering and product development stream under NurimTech AI Labs.
The leadership team includes founders with experience at Microsoft, AT&T, Veritas, and Atlassian, and the organization is positioned as a long-term partner for innovation, talent, and transformation.
Role Overview
This role is for a motivated Growth Associate who will help drive business growth across NurimTech’s three verticals. The position is highly client-facing and involves reaching out to prospects, identifying business opportunities, speaking with decision-makers, and converting interest into measurable outcomes.
You will work closely with the founding team on live mandates, enterprise outreach, and AI program enrollments. The role is ideal for someone who enjoys relationship building, is comfortable with outbound communication, and wants to grow in an AI-focused startup environment.
Key Responsibilities
The associate will handle inbound leads for AI Labs programs, explain the value of the offerings, address queries, and support confirmed enrollments. The role also includes business development for executive hiring mandates, where you will approach HR leaders, talent acquisition teams, and business decision-makers at mid-sized and enterprise companies.
In addition, you will support outreach for AI and cloud consulting services by contacting CTOs, IT heads, and digital transformation leaders through email, LinkedIn, and phone calls. A major part of the job is maintaining an organized lead pipeline, following up regularly, coordinating meetings, and sharing weekly progress updates with the founding team.
Training and Support
The company provides onboarding and direct training for the recruitment vertical. Guidance for the AI consulting and AI Labs streams will be supported by the founding team, along with ongoing mentorship and leadership direction.
Compensation
The role includes a fixed monthly salary of INR 12,000 during the 6-month probation period. Compensation will be reviewed after probation based on performance and overall contribution. Performance-linked incentives are available from the first month for qualified leads and confirmed enrollments, with the detailed structure shared during the interview process.
Work Schedule
This is a work-from-office role based at Ved Tanish, Wadachiwadi Road, Undri, Pune 411060. Working hours are from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM IST, with a 60-minute lunch break. The workweek runs from Monday to Saturday, Sunday is off, and Saturdays are work-from-home.
Perks and Benefits
The selected candidate will get direct mentorship from the founders and real exposure to enterprise AI, executive recruitment, and startup business development. The role offers hands-on work with Antal International mandates, AI Labs lead funnels, and B2B enterprise outreach. High performers may receive a certificate of completion or a letter of recommendation after the 6-month term, along with a fast-track path to Senior Business Development Associate.
Candidate Requirements
The company is looking for a fresher or someone with up to 6 months of experience in business development, inside sales, corporate outreach, or recruitment coordination. Strong spoken English is essential, especially when engaging with senior professionals and business leaders. Good written communication is also needed for emails, LinkedIn messages, and WhatsApp follow-ups.
Applicants should be comfortable with cold calling and outbound outreach to senior stakeholders. The ideal candidate should be self-driven, well organized, able to manage multiple verticals, and genuinely curious about AI, cloud, and emerging technologies. Experience with LinkedIn, Naukri, email tools, Google Sheets, and WhatsApp Business is helpful but not mandatory.
A bachelor’s degree is required, any stream is acceptable, and candidates must be based in Pune. A personal working laptop is mandatory, and there is no relocation support. Immediate joiners are preferred.
Important Notes
The company is only considering Pune-based candidates who can join immediately. Interviews may be conducted either in person at the Kondhwa office or virtually depending on the candidate’s location. The organization values respect, integrity, and accountability, and is looking for someone eager to build a career at the intersection of AI, enterprise sales, and executive recruitment.
About the Work Environment
This role offers exposure to global business activity across India, the US, and the UK. The team works at a startup pace, with direct access to founders and CXO-level conversations from early on.
