About Taho Living :-
Taho Living is a design-led luxury furniture and home décor brand creating distinctive pieces
rooted in materiality, craftsmanship and contemporary living.
As the brand enters its next phase of growth, we are looking to strengthen our business
development function and build deeper relationships across India’s architecture, interiors,
hospitality and luxury design ecosystem.
About the Role :
We are looking for a seasoned, polished and commercially driven Senior Business Development
Manager to grow Taho Living’s business across Delhi NCR and other key markets.
The role is ideal for someone who understands the luxury interiors ecosystem, enjoys building
relationships and has a proven ability to generate and convert business.
A key focus will be proactively developing relationships with architects, interior designers, luxury
residential projects, hospitality groups, developers and other relevant project clients - introducing
them to Taho Living, identifying opportunities and converting these relationships into long-term
business.
This is a client-facing role involving a healthy mix of market visits, meetings, networking,
relationship building and sales conversion, rather than being limited to desk-based or inbound
sales.
The Senior Business Development Manager will also work with and guide Taho Living’s existing
team.
Key Responsibilities :
• New Business Development: Identify and pursue relevant architects, interior designers, hospitality
groups, developers, luxury residential projects and other potential clients. Build a healthy pipeline
of new opportunities through prospecting, referrals, networking and market outreach.
• Relationship & Project Development: Build strong, long-term relationships with architects,
designers and key decision-makers. Visit studios, client offices and project sites where relevant;
present Taho Living’s collections and capabilities; understand upcoming projects and create
opportunities for the brand to be specified or sourced.
• Sales & Conversion: Manage opportunities from initial conversation through presentations,
quotations, negotiations and order closure. Maintain consistent follow-ups, work towards defined
sales targets and develop repeat business from key accounts.
• Team & Lead Management: Guide the existing Business Development Executive handling inbound
enquiries and ensure leads across Instagram, WhatsApp, the website and other channels are being
followed up and converted effectively.
• Pipeline & Market Reporting: Maintain a structured view of prospects, meetings, active projects,
quotations and expected closures, and regularly update the Founder on sales progress, market
feedback and important opportunities.
Who We’re Looking For :
We would particularly like to meet candidates with:
• 5–8 years of relevant sales or business development experience, preferably within luxury furniture,
home décor, interiors, lighting, surfaces, kitchens, sanitaryware or another luxury design/lifestyle
category.
• Existing experience working with architects, interior designers, hospitality clients and luxury
residential projects.
• A proven track record of personally generating and closing business, rather than solely servicing
existing accounts or inbound enquiries.
• Strong relationship-building, networking and negotiation skills.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the confidence and polish to independently
represent a luxury brand.
• A proactive approach to identifying opportunities and developing new accounts.
• Existing relationships within the architecture, interiors, hospitality or luxury ecosystem would be a
strong advantage.
• Experience dealing with HNI/UHNI or other high-value clientele would be preferred.
Education :
Graduate in Business, Marketing, Commerce, Design or a related field.
While an MBA or postgraduate qualification is welcome, relevant industry experience, network and
demonstrated sales ability will carry greater weight.
What Success Looks Like :
Success in this role is straightforward: build the right relationships, create a strong pipeline of
relevant projects and clients, convert those opportunities into sales, and grow Taho Living’s
business.
We are looking for someone who is well-connected, commercially sharp, confident in front of
luxury clientele and genuinely enjoys building relationships and turning them into long-term business.
