Solid = $50/hr
Senior = $55/hr
Requirement:
Minimum 5+ years in a cross-functional operations, consulting, business management, or strategy role within a startup, agency, or B2B environment.
Must NOT be growing your own business. Having your own freelance clients is fine, but it would be a conflict of interest to develop an agency/consultancy alongside of ours.
Seeking you... if you:
have/could run your own business, but choose not to and prefer working within a collaborative team
your verbal and written communication skills are the G.O.A.T. - clear, concise, collaborative, and kind
geek out on all things operations, management, building teams, and growing small businesses
have very high mental acuity and can easily pick up on new situations and environments
are masterful at context switching in a fast-paced startup environments and work best when juggling multiple clients and projects
feel an insatiable desire to excel, learn, persevere, optimize, deliver quality, and get results

Our core values are communication, shared ownership, kindness, freedom, and leaning into our optimal zone of discomfort.

We are a small team with big hearts and exceptional work ethics. We have a very high bar for quality + efficiency.
Our clients have established small businesses and startups, but they are at a growth point and need extra support to up-level. Sometimes they really don't know what they're doing when it comes to building/managing a business and they're looking to us to learn how to do this and get the execution support to set a team up for success. Other times they simply have run out of capacity and know what needs to be done, but they need to outsource it so they can focus on being the visionary / business owner.
✨ READ MORE on our Careers Page ✨
Responsibilities and Areas of Need
Our Strategist role at Magical Teams is a client-facing, cross-functional business partner who leads accounts, drives business growth, and ensures client success through strategic insight + practical execution.
Part consultant, part business architect, part team/project leader, part client relationship owner. You will support founders, CEOs, and leadership teams by designing solutions, managing complexity, facilitating decisions, and holding boundaries with kindness and command.
This role requires someone who can read between the lines, thrive in ambiguity, and drive results through people - without needing everything explained.
Strategists typically are assigned between 4-8 clients.
You'll lead “pod” teams in developing and executing strategic initiatives, ensuring they stay within budget and deliver measurable results. You'll guide clients in setting ambitious goals, prioritizing initiatives, and defining impact and metrics for success. You'll need to be equally comfortable with strategic thinking and getting into the nitty gritty of the execution.
If you love 0→1 environments, solving complex problems, and being a reliable driver of momentum all the while doing it for multiple clients at one time… this is your dream role that will stretch and accelerate your career.
Why This Role Is Hard (But Rewarding)
Most people who apply think “strategist” means being operationally savvy at the functional level. That's not this role (feel free to consider our coordinator role instead).
Here, a Strategist is a cross-functional business strategic partner who can:
drive ROI across the whole business
translate big-picture strategy into a plan of action
hold clients accountable (without burning bridges)
read between the lines and absorb complexity quickly
facilitate tricky conversations and navigate with tact + firmness
generate momentum and results through leveraging others
and operate with high ownership, high reliability, high emotional maturity
If you love being the “steady hand” who orchestrates people, projects, and priorities - you will thrive here.
Additionally, this role requires a demanding level of ownership, collaboration, and context switching between multiple clients and never-ending competing priorities.
Due to the custom nature of our work, no client / situation / week is the same. For those who love to be challenged, there's always interesting work to keep you engaged.
If this environment sounds like your vibe, you'll be able to have a massive impact!
Core Responsibilities
Client Leadership & Account Management
Serve as the primary strategic partner for your clients, building strong, trust-based relationships.
Translate client goals into actionable plans, scopes, and prioritized roadmaps.
Hold clients accountable to decisions, deadlines, and commitments - with diplomacy and firmness.
Navigate challenging client dynamics with emotional maturity and clear, concise communication.
Business Strategy & Operational Clarity
Assess client needs across people, process, systems, revenue, and operations.
Bring a generalist lens to problem-solving, identifying root causes and proposing practical solutions.
Read between the lines and proactively surface risks, misalignments, or opportunities.
Utilize data and metrics to inform decision-making and measure impact.
Team & Project Leadership
Lead client project plans, ensuring clarity in scope, sequencing, owners, and timelines.
Support clients in change management, decision-making, and strategic alignment.
Provide feedback, advice, training, mentorship, and coaching to clients and their team.
Oversee high-quality deliverables and execution across all client touchpoints.
Step into hands-on execution for more advanced or high-value initiatives and projects.
Sales, Scoping & Budget Management
Support client expansion through scoping new work, identifying value, and setting realistic budgets.
Help prepare proposals, project outlines, and potential upsell recommendations.
Understand budget constraints and ensure alignment between scope and delivery.
Join sales calls as needed to represent operational expertise.
Internal & Team Leadership
Collaborate with Success Squad leadership, other Strategists, and the MT team overall.
Model reliable, articulate, emotionally mature communication.
Provide guidance, feedback, and clarity to your pod team members.
Act as a sponge - absorb context, patterns, and best practices from top performers and integrate them into your work.
Additionally Strategists lean into 1-2 specialty lanes of expertise:
Business (planning, KPIs, leadership)
Tech (tools, automations, systems design)
People (team management, performance, culture)
Recruiting (sourcing, interviewing, hiring systems)
Revenue (sales, marketing, CS, funnels, revops)
Finance (cash flow, budgets, P&L, metrics)
Ideally at least one primary lane of depth + one secondary lane of strength, while also functioning as a cross-functional business generalist.
We are not looking for someone who is “kind of familiar” with these areas.
We are looking for someone who can say:
“I have led in this lane in a variety of businesses. I have built systems, solved problems, delivered outcomes, and guided teams in this specialization.”
Skills That Will Enable You To Thrive:
You ramp ridiculously fast. You can drop into a messy business, spot what's off, and get oriented without needing hours of backstory or hand-holding.
You thrive in ambiguity. Give you half the picture and you'll figure out the rest - asking sharp questions and filling in gaps proactively.
You see the root causes. You understand how people, processes, tools, and priorities interlock - and you read between the lines and spot risks long before others see them.
You communicate like a leader. Direct. Clear. No fluff. You can shift a conversation, de-escalate a tense room, or reset expectations with calm authority.
You can hold boundaries with grace. You're diplomatic, but you don't get pushed around. Clients feel safe with you because you're steady, honest, and consistent.
You drive hard toward outcomes. You don't wait. You don't stall. You move things forward, unblock people, and keep momentum alive even when things get messy.
You are a strategist who executes. You're equally comfortable zooming out to analyze the goals + challenges and zooming in to move a project from 0→1 with speed and excellence.
You manage yourself like a seasoned operator. Multiple clients, shifting priorities, fires, deadlines - you can hold it all without dropping balls or needing babysitting.

You live our values. Clear communication. Shared ownership. Kindness. High standards. DEIB. Personal growth.
