    • Support executive communications, Board materials, planning sessions, and company-wide priorities
  • Keep the Executive Team Aligned

    • Facilitate executive meetings, Quarterly Business Reviews, annual planning, and leadership off-sites
    • Translate decisions into action plans with clear ownership and accountability
    • Identify risks, dependencies, and execution gaps early
  • Build Business Operations
    • Develop executive dashboards and KPI frameworks as the organization’s source of truth
    • Improve visibility into revenue, profitability, customer health, operational performance, and strategic initiatives
    • Lead business reviews and turn complex information into practical recommendations
  • Drive Company-Wide Execution
    • Lead cross-functional initiatives across Product, Engineering, Data Science, Finance, Revenue, Customer Success, Marketing, Partnerships, People, and Operations
    • Improve communication and collaboration and build scalable operating processes for growth
    • Remove friction that slows execution and keeps teams focused on highest-impact work

Requirements

  • 10+ years in Chief of Staff, Business Operations, Strategy, Consulting, Product Ops, Revenue Ops, Corporate Development, or similar roles
  • Proven ability to bring order to complexity by building systems that align organizations and drive follow-through
  • Experience partnering directly with senior executives in a high-growth technology environment
  • Strong facilitation skills for executive discussions and planning
  • Comfortable shifting between strategic leadership and hands-on problem solving
  • Known for being approachable and collaborative, with influence without formal authority

Nice-to-haves

  • Experience with executive dashboards / KPI frameworks and operating cadence development
  • Track record of accelerating cross-functional execution at scale
