This is not a traditional Chief of Staff role focused on coordination and administration. This is a builder and operator role designed for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, enjoys solving complex challenges, and wants a front-row seat to scaling a category-defining company.
Position Overview

The Chief of Staff will serve as a strategic partner to the CEO, helping drive execution across company-wide initiatives, operations, growth strategy, fundraising efforts, partnerships, and organizational scaling.

The ideal candidate is equally comfortable in the boardroom and in the trenches, someone who can move seamlessly between strategic planning and hands-on execution while helping create the systems, processes, and alignment necessary for sustainable growth.
Key Responsibilities
Strategic Leadership & Execution

• Partner directly with the CEO on strategic initiatives and organizational priorities

• Ensure alignment and execution across multiple stakeholders and workstreams

Partnerships & Business Operations

• Support strategic partnerships and enterprise customer relationships
• Assist in developing operational frameworks and scalable business processes
• Contribute to organizational planning and growth initiatives

Talent & Organizational Growth

• Partner with leadership on recruiting and talent acquisition efforts
• Help build and scale organizational infrastructure as the company grows
• Support initiatives that strengthen culture, communication, and team effectiveness

What We're Looking For

• Exceptional organizational and project management skills
• Strong executive communication and stakeholder management abilities
• Ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
• Highly proactive, resourceful, and execution-oriented mindset
