Sales Officer – Field Sales, West Bengal New

The CTC for this role is ₹1.8–2.5 lakh per year. The original posting also lists ₹15,000–₹22,000 per month, plus TA and DA. Commission, performance bonus and a yearly bonus are mentioned by the employer as well. Where an offer falls in this range usually depends on your field sales experience, your track record in meeting targets and how you perform in the interview.

Based on the posting, the work is field-based and focused on West Bengal. You would take orders for PVC door locks, appoint and grow dealers and distributors, follow up on collections and track progress against monthly, quarterly and annual targets. You would also guide sales teams, so the day usually includes a lot of travel and client meetings.

The posting asks for at least 1 year of field sales experience, preferably in a similar role. So freshers without field sales experience are unlikely to meet the stated requirement. If you have done field sales in a related product or channel for a year or more, you can apply through this page.

The employer looks for a good understanding of the sales cycle, including target achievement, collections and team management. Communication and negotiation skills are also key, along with the ability to work independently. In interviews, these are usually tested through questions on how you handled a past sales target, a difficult payment follow-up or a negotiation with a dealer.

The posting does not state a minimum qualification, so you should check with the recruiter during screening. What matters more in this role is your field sales experience and your understanding of the sales cycle. Candidates with a degree in business or a related field often find it easier to explain their sales results clearly, but this is general advice, not a stated requirement.

The work location is listed as Kolkata, West Bengal, in person. However, the role covers sales across West Bengal, and the posting says you must be willing to travel extensively, about 75% of the time. Before applying, check that you can manage this level of travel and that the commute from your home to Kolkata is workable.

Prepare a short summary of your past field sales work, with figures for targets, achievements and collections if you have them. Be ready to explain how you found new dealers or distributors and how you managed a sales team. Learn the basics of PVC door locks and the hardware market in West Bengal, as this usually shows interest in the product. Interviews are conducted by the employer.

This role typically suits someone with at least a year of field sales experience who enjoys travel, meeting trade partners and working towards clear targets. It also suits people who can work on their own and manage several tasks at once. It is less suitable for candidates who prefer an office-based job with fixed desk hours.

In sales roles like this, progress usually comes from meeting targets, building a strong dealer network and taking on more responsibility for sales teams. Over time, candidates often move into area sales manager or regional sales manager positions. This is general career guidance and not a promise made by the employer.
