Description
Background

The moment a client signs on and gets paired with a Magic assistant, someone has to make sure that pairing succeeds. That someone is you.
- A client emails in frustrated. You read it, call within 30 minutes, and lead by listening — asking enough questions to get past the surface complaint to the real one. Only then do you act.
- A client goes quiet. Rather than wait for a cancellation, you reach out first, check in, and figure out what changed — with a plan already forming before anyone has to ask you for one.
- Onboarding calls, check-ins, feedback sessions — all run without a reminder. Your calendar stays organized and nothing falls through.
- Your HubSpot notes are specific and useful — the kind a teammate could read cold and immediately understand what happened and what's next. No placeholder text.
- When a pairing starts to break down, you don't just note it and move on. You find out why, loop in leadership on a replacement, and handle the handoff so the client barely notices the bump.
- You check before you assume. You flag things outside your scope early. Every loop gets closed.
- Ninety days in, your manager has nothing to worry about on your accounts — because you've already surfaced anything they would have.
Be honest with yourself before applying.
- Your default move on a ticket is to type a response, not make a call. This team doesn't operate email-first.
- You have under 2 years of client-facing support experience with US clients, with minimal exposure to escalations or account retention.
- You can't reliably work overlapping US hours or hold a consistent night shift schedule (10 PM–7 AM PHT).
- Graveyard or night shift work would be brand new to you.
- Juggling high ticket volume while still giving each client relationship real attention isn't something you're confident doing.
- Your written or spoken English isn't strong enough to confidently navigate a live client call or relay feedback to a teammate.
- You tend to wait for direction rather than take ownership of a problem yourself.
- Ambiguity or pressure tends to make you freeze up or disengage.
Core Responsibilities
- Hold a portfolio of client-assistant pairings — understand each one's goals, day-to-day workflow, and overall relationship health.
- Treat every inbound inquiry with urgency. Read it, then call. Lead with empathy, dig past the surface, and follow through with action.
- Run onboarding for new clients and assistants, and lead introduction calls whenever a client gets a replacement or additional assistant — setting the tone and communication cadence from call one.
- Own 30-day success check-ins and ongoing follow-ups. Catch retention or satisfaction risks early enough to act before the client raises them.
- Take the lead on win-back conversations when a client signals they're thinking of leaving — diagnose the real issue, propose solutions, and advocate for keeping the relationship alive.
- Collect and pass along client feedback that points to service gaps, process fixes, or expansion opportunities.
- Help assistants stay aligned on tasks, expectations, and scheduling so they consistently deliver for the client.
- Hold regular feedback conversations with assistants — coaching where there's room to grow, and representing their interests to leadership.
- Watch for early signs of disengagement or flight risk in assistant performance, and act on them before they escalate.
- Partner with the Assistant Leadership Team whenever a pairing needs to be reworked.
- Triage and manage your daily ticket queue with responses that feel personal, not templated — clients should know there's a real person on the other end.
- Keep HubSpot airtight — every interaction, issue, and resolution logged clearly enough for anyone on the team to pick up the thread.
- Watch for recurring patterns in support issues and surface the root causes to leadership.
- Bring in cross-functional partners (Operations, Finance, Engineering) for anything outside your lane.
What You Bring
- Experience helps, but how you operate matters more. We're looking for:
- Solid client-facing experience in relations, support, account management, or retention — US clients strongly preferred. You've worked escalations, owned ongoing relationships, and pulled at-risk accounts back from the edge.
- A demonstrated ability to juggle multiple active relationships or accounts at once without losing track of any of them.
- Strong written and spoken English — equally at home on a tense client call or a developmental conversation with an assistant.
- Consistent availability for night shift: 10 PM–7 AM PHT, with prior night shift experience required.
- Comfort with CRM tools (HubSpot preferred) and working across several platforms day to day.
- Bias toward action. A problem shows up, they move on it — no waiting around for a green light.
- Adaptability. Priorities shift, tickets spike, processes evolve — they roll with it without losing quality.
- Visible care. It comes through in the small things — a personalized reply, a follow-up nobody asked for, remembering details that matter. Clients and assistants notice.
- PLOW mindset. A core Magic value — when something blocks your path, you work through it rather than parking it or punting it to someone else.
-
Relationship instinct. Fast trust-building with both clients and assistants, good judgment on when to push versus listen versus escalate, and the ability to keep things constructive even in tough conversations.
- Application + Pre-Qualifying Questions
- HR Interview (30 to 45 minutes)
- Skill Assessment: Written Case Study (submitted before next stage)
- Second-Level Interview with Support Management
- Mock Feedback Call (guide provided in advance)
- Final Interview with Head of Sales: experience and scenario-based questions
- Job Offer + 4-Week Training Program
Reality of the role
Your first 4 weeks break into two phases:
- Product & Skills Training: You'll learn the full client lifecycle, Magic's internal systems and tools, plus shadow experienced Client Success Specialists through live calls.
-
Immersion Training: You take on live tickets, onboarding calls, and client interactions under supervision. Response time, resolution quality, and documentation accuracy are tracked from day one.
- Schedule: Monday–Friday, 10 PM–7 AM PHT
- Zero absences allowed (medical emergencies only, with documentation)
- 80% or higher required on daily assessments, mock calls, and immersion KPIs to continue
- Full focus, consistent attendance, professionalism, and proactive engagement required
- Location: Fully remote, work from your preferred location
- Schedule: Monday–Friday or Tuesday–Saturday, 9 PM–6 AM or 10 PM–7 AM PHT
- Salary: ₱32,000–38,000/month
- When a frustrated client ticket lands, is my instinct to call or to type a response?
- Do I have real client-facing experience with escalations, retention conversations, and account ownership — beyond general customer service?
- Can I commit to US time zone hours (10 PM–7 AM PHT), fully remote, without close supervision?
- Am I genuinely comfortable managing a full portfolio of client-assistant relationships alongside daily ticket load?
- Can I commit to 4 weeks of intensive training — assessments, mock calls, live client work included?
- When I hit a wall, do I push through it myself, or wait for someone to tell me what's next?
- Would former colleagues say I genuinely care — and could they name a specific moment that proved it?
If “maybe” or “I’ll figure it out” came up anywhere, it might not be the right time yet — and that’s completely fine.
