What you'll doWe're looking for an exceptional and ambidextrous early-career operator to help us build and scale this infrastructure. You will work across every altitude, from co-designing high-level team planning mechanisms to managing the granular details of a complex project to ensure that it lands successfully.

Other weeks, it's gaveling on the best lightning talks to feature during our onsite and pitching a mandatory jingle jam.
Responsibilities- Team systems & infrastructure: Create processes, onboarding resources, and shared playbooks that help the team prioritize, track, and execute work effectively.
- Workflow automation: Lead the transformation of the team's critical administrative engines such as inbound media requests, speaking inquiries, and team communication channels and aliases. You'll identify recurring patterns and build AI-enabled workflows and automations that make these processes faster, more reliable, and easier to scale.
- Project and program management: Act as the embedded PgM for complex comms programs (e.g., Stripe Sessions, the Annual Letter) from planning through execution. Translate fast-moving initiatives into clear objectives, plans, milestones, and reporting.
- Budget and resource management: Manage the team's resourcing and budget management process including contracting, POs, payments, tracking and budget reporting.
- Measurement and reporting: Build and maintain reporting systems and data dashboards that track communications impact, media coverage, and operational efficiency. Turn the data into clear insights that help the team make decisions.
