WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS
The Chief of Staff is the CEO’s most trusted operator and thought partner. You help absorb the strategic and operational weight that currently sits on one person: board prep, fundraising, planning rhythms, cross-functional execution, and the high-stakes projects that determine whether the next 12 months go fast or slow. You’re also the organizational connective tissue - the information funnel, filter, and facilitator between the CEO and every internal and external stakeholder that matters.
You’re not a coordinator. You’re a force multiplier. You make the CEO’s time worth 3x, give the leadership team clarity and accountability, and keep the company’s long-term vision from getting eaten by short-term noise.
This is a high-intensity seat. We move fast, give direct feedback without ego, and value those who can take ownership over outcomes. If you want a title, this is the wrong place. If you want to be in the room where the company gets built, keep reading.
WHAT YOU’LL OWN
Executive Office & CEO Leverage
- Build and lead the daily operations of the executive office — the processes, rhythms, and infrastructure that let the CEO operate with the highest leverage
- Act as an extension of the CEO with internal and external stakeholders: assess all incoming inquiries, determine priority and proper course of action, and route or handle accordingly
- Serve as the primary point of contact for the CEO’s direct reports; work in close partnership with the EA to ensure the CEO’s calendar is tightly aligned with company priorities
- Stand in for the CEO in selected meetings, challenge ideas, offer perspective, and drive follow-through on action items
- Manage the CEO’s external brand and reputation, including how they show up with investors, customers, and the broader ecosystem
Operating Rhythm & Planning
- Build and run the cadence for leadership meetings, board meetings, and leadership offsites - including structuring and helping deliver company-wide communications
- Drive quarterly planning cycles, OKRs, leadership reviews, and major business updates
- Own the company operating dashboard: define the metrics, instrument them, track them weekly, and flag what’s slipping before anyone has to ask. Nobody should know the state of the business better than you
- Design meetings so they’re decisive, not just informative - sharper agendas, cleaner decisions, ruthless follow-through
Cross-Functional Execution
- Lead strategic initiatives end-to-end that span Eng, GTM, and Ops - especially work that doesn’t neatly fit within the org chart or falls between departments. From “here’s a messy problem” to “it’s done, here’s the result”
- Proactively track high-priority initiatives, surface blockers and dependencie …
