Job overview
A Business Development New Initiatives opening is now listed by Larsen & Toubro for Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu. The role grows business in new areas under the company’s Lakshya-31 roadmap, from partnerships to order booking.
Plants in the districts around Chennai offer stable manufacturing careers, and many staff travel in from nearby towns by company transport or bus. The listing marks this opening as on-site, so you should be ready to work from the location every working day.
What the Business Development New Initiatives will do
The listing describes the day-to-day work in these main points:
- Develop and grow business in strategic growth areas under the Lakshya-31 roadmap.
- Manage customer relationships and build strategic partnerships.
- Assess markets and the opportunity landscape.
- Commercialise new products and solutions.
- Work with international business development managers, channel partners and local representatives to win orders.
The exact split of tasks may vary by team, so confirm the details during the interview.
Eligibility and experience
L&T asks for five to ten years of experience. Experience of 5–10 years is expected, which places this opening at a mid or senior level.
Skills that will help you
If you can show the following, your profile will stand out:
- Business development.
- Partnership building.
- Market assessment.
- Order booking focus.
Mention a project or work example for each skill you claim, with the result you achieved.
Three themes run through the listing: market assessment, channel partners and order booking. If your profile touches at least two of them, say so in the first lines of your CV.
Who should apply
It suits business development professionals with five to ten years who can work with partners. It is less suitable for candidates who are only looking for a short-term job with no learning.
A typical working day
Most days you will be expected to develop and grow business in strategic growth areas under the Lakshya-31 roadmap, assess markets and the opportunity landscape and work with international business development managers. The mix changes with the project phase and the shift. How the day is split will change with the shift, the workload and the stage of the project.
How to prepare for the interview
Panels often ask how you work with technical teams to prepare offers. Be ready to explain how you would bring them into a customer discussion.
Practise your answers aloud. A clear two-minute explanation of one project is more useful than a long list of topics. One likely question is how you would manage customer relationships and build strategic partnerships. Another may ask how you would commercialise new products and solutions. Spend extra time on market assessment, channel partners and order booking, because the listing points to them.
Resume tips for a Business Development New Initiatives application
Keep the layout clean and put your strongest result in the first few lines.

Mirror the language of the posting wherever it honestly describes your work. If the employer writes market assessment or channel partners, make sure those exact words appear in your CV. Give proof for business development, and for partnership building, with a project, a figure or a result next to each.
