Hello, What you have mentioned is Job Description. For KRA, you need to quantify above tasks and also give a timeline.

Dear Joyce,
This is in addition to what Ms Vaishali Parkhee has said. Please note:
KRA = KPI + Target Date + Target Value
Most of the KRAs measure ratios or costs. While ratios are increased or decreased, the costs are reduced or maintained at certain level.
Anyway, following could be the KRAs of the sales executive:
a) Number of leads generated - Actual Vs Target
b) Leads to Sales Call Conversion Ratio - Actual Vs Target
c) Turnaround Time to receive PO - Actual Vs Target
d) Sales Calls to Receipt of PO Ratio - Actual Vs Target
What the salesperon sells is not mentioned. If it is material then you need to measure the Inventory Turnover Ratio (ITR) for the Finished Goods (FG) and assign this ratio to the sales HOD.
Thanks,

Dear Joyce,
This is in addition to the previous post. One more KPI for Sales HOD could be Sales Cost per PO. The formula to calculate this cost is total sales cost divided by number of POs received from the customers in the given period.
