About the role

As the Chief of Staff for LUS, you will report to the Head of LUS serving as both a strategic thought partner and a hands-on executor. You'll help shape priorities and tradeoffs with the Head of LUS and their leadership team, then turn those priorities into plans, processes, and results. You'll own the planning, operating rhythm, and communications that keep a global, multi-function organization aligned, and you'll lead high-priority initiatives from scoping through delivery.

  • 5+ years of experience, including management consulting or a similar strategy role, ideally combined with in-house experience in strategy, operations, BizOps, or a Chief of Staff function
  • Track record of leading cross-functional programs across several teams and delivering high-quality results on time
  • Strategic problem-solver who can analyze complex, ambiguous situations and recommend a path forward, balancing long-term strategy with near-term execution
  • Equally comfortable shaping the strategy and doing the work to deliver it
  • Proven ability to influence without authority and hold stakeholders across levels accountable
  • Experience driving organizational or process change
