Full job description
Wing Assistant places contractors across 25+ role types — GVAs, EAs, SDRs, CSRs, and more — for clients across the Philippines, LATAM, and global markets. Internal coordination runs through Discord as the single source of truth: pre-demo requests, mid-call heads-up, post-demo handoffs, and ongoing status all live in one place, so nothing gets lost between people.
This isn't a role for someone who wants a well-worn script.
The accelerated process rewards judgment — reading a client in real time, reading a candidate's fit on the fly, and knowing when to move before the moment closes.
The Account Placement Specialist is responsible for managing the end-to-end client engagement process at Wing Assistant.
You'll Own
- Understand potential customer input through intake forms and quickly leverage on organization-wide ATS systems to find candidates that match the skillset- interview candidates to ensure fit for what potential client is looking for
- Discovery & demo: Run full discovery calls and qualify what the client actually needs, then present
Wing's value and bring live, vetted candidates directly into the call — real people, no recordings, no async profiles. - The close: Read the room and close while interest is highest — propose next steps before the call ends, and formalize the deal in Discord/JRF within 30–60 minutes.
- Candidate bench: Keep the idle-pool current and taggable by role, industry, and availability, so you can pull 2–3 credible matches from a loose brief with 10–30 minutes' notice.
- Flake-proofing: Confirm candidate availability at T-24h and again at T-30min; always have a backup identified before the call, not after someone drops out.
- Post-close: Finalize compliance and formal matching once a deal closes, and keep CSM/TA aligned on onboarding status in real time.
