Job Summary
We are seeking an exceptional Chief of Staff to support two senior leaders: the Head of Global Real Estate and the Head of Global Energy. This role serves as a strategic and operational force multiplier, enabling both leaders to scale impact, drive disciplined execution, and maintain alignment across complex, globally distributed portfolios.
The Chief of Staff will operate at the intersection of enterprise strategy, capital-intensive operations, risk management, and organizational effectiveness, translating high-level priorities into cohesive plans while removing friction across teams. This role is ideal for a leader who thrives in ambiguity, excels at multi-threaded problem solving, and can seamlessly shift between strategic advising and hands-on execution across two distinct but interdependent functions.
