Requirements
We are hiring a high output Chief of Staff to directly support our CEO, lead our internal strategic projects, and use AI to modernize how we run the business. This is a hands-on role with a clear path to GM/senior operator scope. We are looking for smart, motivated individuals who are looking to "roll up their sleeves" and are hungry to make an impact by stewarding a business over the long-term.
This role reports directly to the CEO. You will work daily with finance, billing, operations and service leaders, and people operations. Interlaced is an Apple-focused managed IT provider within the Lyra Technology Group portfolio, so the role also touches portfolio reporting and engagement.
Key Responsibilities
- Strategic projects: own several high-impact internal projects at a time, from scoping to completion.
- AI and automation: find the manual, repetitive work across our business and automate it using Claude, n8n, Make and similar tools.
- Executive leverage: run the executive operating system (e.g. goals tracking, leadership offsite prep, L10 meetings).
- Reporting and insights: execute business reporting and analysis and bring insights and recommendations to the CEO.
- People operations support: support hiring and onboarding, and handle confidential matters with discretion.
- Whatever needs doing: roll up your sleeves and fix things yourself.
Required Skills & Experience
- You use Claude and tools like n8n or Make weekly, and have working automations or dashboards to show us.
- Sharp analytical and strategic judgment. You make good decisions with incomplete information, are comfortable in Excel and finance data, and can build a model and explain it.
- You work with extreme autonomy, move fast, prioritize ruthlessly, and finish what you start. You think like an owner and want to run a business one day.
- You are detail oriented and keep many initiatives moving at once.
- Executive presence and influence. You have exceptional EQ and build relationships and followership at every level. You are polished and direct with executives, and you push back with data.
- You have led others and persevere through adversity. You are humble, accountable, and growth-minded, with a positive attitude and competitive intensity.
