Magic EdTech is seeking a senior, client-facing consultant to act as an embedded strategic partner for a key enterprise client. In this role, you will operate as the bridge between client leadership and Magic EdTech’s global delivery teams, ensuring strong governance, delivery excellence, and long-term account growth.
This is not a traditional delivery role. You will focus on strategy, program governance, stakeholder alignment, and solution shaping, while serving as a trusted advisor to senior client leaders.
Key Responsibilities
Embedded Program Governance
- Own oversight of multiple consulting-led programs across content, curriculum, and assessments
- Establish governance frameworks, KPIs, and delivery standards
- Proactively identify and mitigate risks related to scope, resourcing, quality, and timelines
- Align client intent with execution across onshore and offshore teams
Strategic Client Partnership
- Build strong advisory relationships with client product, content, and learning leadership
- Consult on pedagogical, accessibility, and AI-driven solutions
- Participate in client planning and roadmap discussions (1–3 year horizon)
Account Growth & Solution Shaping
- Identify whitespace and expansion opportunities within the account
- Partner with Sales/Client Relationship Managers on solution validation and scoping
- Lead technical and pedagogical inputs for SOWs and proposals
- Lead Quarterly Business Reviews using data and outcomes
- Support change management and vendor integration on the client side
- Act as a subject expert on Magic’s AI and digital learning capabilities
Core Skills & Experience Required
- 8+ years in EdTech, Publishing, Professional Learning, or Workforce Education
- Strong background in client-facing consulting, account management, or customer success
- Experience governing complex, multi-stream programs (Agile/Waterfall)
- Proven ability to translate ambiguous client needs into structured solutions
- Executive-level communication and stakeholder management skills
- Experience with high-stakes assessment, licensure, certification, or workforce learning preferred
Why Join This Role?
- Be the face of Magic EdTech for a marquee enterprise client
- Influence strategy, not just delivery
- High visibility, autonomy, and long-term impact
- Opportunity to define Magic’s embedded-consulting model for large clients
