Chief of Staff, CEO

Responsibilities

• In one sentence: Be the CEO's strategic right hand - own the operating rhythm of the company, drive cross-functional alignment, and lead the highest-stakes initiatives from strategy through execution.
• Serve as a sounding board and sparring partner to the CEO on company strategy, competitive positioning, fundraising, org design, and executive hiring
• Own the cadence of the company - leadership meetings, leadership offsites, support all-hands preparation, goal-setting, planning, and cross-functional accountability systems
• Shape CEO communications for internal audiences (all-hands, leadership updates, sensitive HR matters) and external audiences (investor calls, candidate-facing materials)
• Drive alignment across the Leadership team and functional leads - mediate ten

Requirements

• 10+ years of professional experience across high-intensity environments. This role has no manager, no structured feedback loops, and no one scoping your work. You are expected to see what needs to happen across strategy, operations, communications, and people and drive it without being asked.
• Diplomatic backbone. You navigate leadership tensions, headcount negotiations, and hard conversations with both empathy and candor.
• AI fluency. You actively use AI tools in your workflows and see them as a leverage multiplier, not a novelty (experience building AI workflows and agents is a strong plus)
• Coaching background is a meaningful plus. Executive coaching certification, or equivalent.
