Role
Who you are
- We are seeking experienced and driven Account Executives who are passionate about helping fast-growing businesses achieve their goals
- Experience Fit: 2+ years of B2B sales experience (SMB/Mid-Market, U.S. or Canada), with a proven track record selling SaaS, subscription services, AI, or outsourcing to executive-level buyers
- GTM Fit: You’ve thrived in high-volume inbound environments and treat every lead with the tenacity and structure of an outbound opportunity (no stone left unturned)
- Sales Style Fit: You’re a consultative, relationship-first seller who drives urgency, uncovers pain, and positions value across multiple stakeholders
- Mindset Fit: Hungry, gritty, coachable, self-accountable, and you take ownership of outcomes and don’t wait to be told what to fix
- Culture Fit: You thrive in a fast-changing startup, are mature, proactive, curious, and a driver of team momentum
- Tech Fluency: You’re strong with HubSpot, AI tools, and modern sales platforms, using technology to go faster
- Who This Role is Not For:
- You blame the leads, the tools, or the process, rather than asking what you could do better
- You need a manager to tell you what to do every day
- You think leads manage themselves and don’t believe in persistent, proactive follow-up
- You don’t take the initiative to improve; you wait for someone to tell you what to fix
- You treat “bad timing” or “not now” as dead ends instead of future wins to nurture
- Time Zone Alignment: Must be able to consistently work in Eastern Time, including adjustments for Daylight Saving Time
- Availability: Monday to Friday, with consistent availability during U.S. business hours
- Hunger: You chase results and hate leaving potential on the table
- Grit: You keep pushing when it gets hard because that’s where wins happen
- Coachability: You treat feedback like fuel
- Maturity: You treat leads like gold and time like your most valuable asset
- Ownership: You drive your own success; you don’t wait for it
- Problem Solver: You look for paths forward, not reasons it won’t work
What the job involves
- As an Account Executive, you will own the end-to-end sales cycle—from initial outreach and discovery to closing and onboarding—while consistently creating value and fostering lasting client relationships
- From discovery to close, from "not now" to "let's revisit", your success will come from your grit, discipline, curiosity, and accountability. We're looking for high-performing Account Executives who are obsessed with results, coachable to the core, and treat every lead like gold
- Reporting To: Inbound Sales Manager
- Own the full sales cycle from inbound discovery to follow-up, closing, and successful onboarding, ensuring a smooth transition for new clients and hitting quota monthly
- Run 15+ discovery calls per week with C-level and Director-level prospects; uncover pain, establish urgency, and align the right product
- Know when to position which Magic product by becoming a true product expert and match offerings to prospect needs with precision
- Treat every lead like a win waiting to happen by working “not now” leads with discipline and creativity until the timing is right
- Work every deal to completion and don’t let momentum die; follow up persistently, update next steps, and never lose track of potential
- Own your pipeline like a pro while keeping HubSpot clean, prioritize outreach, and maintain deal velocity at all times
- Collaborate with Sales, Support, and Ops Teams to ensure clients start strong and are set up for long-term success
- Share what’s working and learn what’s not bringing a growth mindset to every deal, and adapt quickly when SOPs, experiments, or strategies evolve
- Continuously learn and improve, seeking feedback, applying it fast, and treating personal growth like part of the job
- Stay consistent, stay hungry while showing up with energy, drive, and the mindset that every day is an opportunity to win
- You handle 2 to 8 discovery calls per day and never drop the ball
- You don’t let soft “no's” die. You work the deal until the answer is final
- You actively ask, “What could I do better?” and apply the feedback fast
- You own your pipeline like you personally paid for the lead. Every lead, every stage, is tracked and followed up on
- You’re not waiting for opportunities, you’re creating them in your pipeline
- Work Schedule: 9-hour shifts following US business hours between 9:00 AM - 8:00 PM Eastern Time

Our take
Magic matches companies with qualified remote assistants equipped with the skills applicable to help scale their business. With only 23% of applications making it through the robust process to become Magic Assistants, the company has positioned itself as a trusted and reliable service.

With this knowledge, they’ve built a collective of virtual assistants who are drawn from and cater to the specific needs of the company so they can save time and energy and focus on pursuing their mission.
