## About the role

The Chief of Staff is the CEO's most trusted operating partner. You will extend his reach across the company: representing him in rooms he cannot be in, carrying his priorities into the executive team, and making sure the decisions that matter get made, communicated, and executed. This is not a coordination or scheduling role. When you speak, the company should understand that you speak with the CEO's full context and backing.

## What they're looking for

- A track record of earning the trust of CEOs or C-level executives and credibly representing them to senior stakeholders
- Executive presence and influence: you can hold your own with, and when necessary push back on, experienced VPs and C-level leaders
- Exceptional judgment and discretion, you handle confidential, sensitive, and politically delicate matters with ease
- Strong analytical instincts: comfortable pulling metrics, spotting trends, and translating data into operational decisions
- Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to align stakeholders at every level, from the board to the front line
- AI-native mindset: you're already using AI tools to multiply your own output and you're excited to push further
