Business Development Intern (Lead Generation & Outreach)

About the role

Omnivoo is the operating system for global talent. We help companies pay contractors in 220+ countries and territories and hire full-time employees in India without setting up a local entity: contract management, compliant payroll, eight payout methods, and India EOR, all from one platform. Backed by Google for Startups and Microsoft for Startups.

Your entire job is finding potential customers and getting them on a call with us. No strategy decks, no reports, just find leads, reach out, and book meetings. You are the first point of contact between Omnivoo and a potential client. If you enjoy talking to people, do not fear rejection, and get a kick out of a reply to a cold message, this is for you.

What you'll do

• Lead discovery: find global companies hiring in India or with Indian-origin founders, using LinkedIn, Crunchbase, Wellfound, job boards, VC portfolio pages, X, and any other source you can find.
• Build and maintain a clean prospect list with company details, decision-maker contacts, and LinkedIn URLs.
• Send personalised LinkedIn connection requests and DMs to founders, HR heads, and hiring managers.
• Write and send cold emails to prospects.
• Follow up consistently: most deals close on the third or fourth touchpoint, not the first.
• Track every outreach in a Google Sheet with status and response, so nothing falls through the cracks.

What we're looking for

• Not afraid of cold outreach and rejection.
• Strong written communication: your LinkedIn DMs and emails are the first thing prospects see.
• Comfortable using LinkedIn as a work tool, not just for scrolling.
• Organised: you can keep a clean CRM or Google Sheet without things slipping.
• Self-starter: you go find leads rather than waiting for a list to be handed to you.

What you don't need

• A business degree.
• Prior sales experience, we will teach you.
• Perfect English, clear communication beats fancy vocabulary.

What you'll gain

• Real B2B sales experience, the most transferable skill in any career.
• Direct exposure to how a startup acquires its first customers.
• Work directly with the founding team.
• A clear path to a full-time BDR role if you are good at this.
