This is a high-trust, high-context operating role for someone who can move fluidly between strategy and execution. You will help the CEO translate company priorities into crisp operating plans, connect the right teams at the right moments, surface misalignment early, and ensure that important work does not stall between functions.
The ideal candidate is not looking for a purely administrative staff role. They are a strong operator who can take ambiguous company-level problems, structure them, drive them forward, and build durable systems so the company gets faster as it scales.
