Deployment Strategist

Procurement and supply chain is a $3 trillion problem that the world's largest companies haven't solved — until now. Magentic is building the first generation of agentic AI systems that actually work inside complex enterprise environments, backed by Sequoia and built by a team from OpenAI, Meta, Revolut, NASA, and McKinsey. We move fast, we ship real things, and we're looking for people who want to help build this from the ground up.

As Deployment Strategist, you're the person who takes what we build and makes it land. You'll own customer engagements end-to-end — from scoping through to live deployment — and you'll be the connective tissue between our product, our commercial ambitions, and our customers' outcomes. This isn't a support role. You'll be shaping how Magentic operates in the field.

You’ll have a huge impact on both Magentic’s commercial success and our product direction. This is a rare opportunity to help build a rocket ship. As we grow, you could develop into product management or engineering, into a leader in our customer engineering space, even into sales, as you discover your strengths and interests.

• Build strong relationships with our flagship customers—household names in the enterprise manufacturing space.

• Analyse large, unstructured data sets—dig around to discover value that our customers are missing and help configure our product to surface that value.

• Collaborate directly with executives & operators—run white-boarding sessions, turn ambiguous requirements into concrete specs, demo our product, and train users.

• Shape our roadmap—gather insights from customers to determine the highest-priority new features and products.

• Have 5–6 years of experience in a customer-facing engagement or delivery role

• Have managed complex, multi-stakeholder projects at senior levels and kept them moving when the customer’s priorities shifted

• Think commercially: you track outcomes, not just activities, and you understand how successful deployments translate into revenue

• Are energised by early-stage ambiguity — you can create structure where none exists and make decisions with incomplete information

• Communicate exceptionally well, both in the room with a VP and in a written handover to a colleague

Bonus Points

• Experience deploying AI, automation, or data products inside large organisations

• Familiarity with procurement, supply chain, or finance functions in enterprise settings

• You've worked in a high-growth startup before and thrived in the chaos

At Magentic, we recognise and reward the talent that drives our success. We offer:

• Competitive Equity: play a real part in Magentic’s upside

• A salary of £100-110k

• Enhanced parental leave

• 25 days holiday exc bank holidays, plus an extra day for our Christmas shutdown

• In-office lunches provided

• Salary sacrifice pension and nursery schemes

• Hybrid London HQ (WFH Thurs and every other Tues, with flex if you have appointments etc)

• Annual team retreat—a fully-funded off-site to recharge, bond, and build

We can move quickly through these stages, so let us know if you have any timelines we need to meet.

1. Initial call (30 mins): this first step is an opportunity for you to hear more about Magentic and the role, and for us to learn more about how your experience aligns with the role.

2. Skills interview (60 mins): in this step, we'll ask you to prepare a presentation and take Q&A, as well as giving you lots of time to ask questions of our CEO.

3. In-person interview (half-day, paid): for the final step, we invite you to come meet the team in-person. We find this is the best way for candidates to get a sense of what working at Magentic is like. This day will include a culture interview, founder interview and a presentation task / discussion with the team.
