The Role This is a Chief of Staff role first, with a light executive‑support element. You'll be the CEO's right hand — turning priorities into plans, plans into momentum, and momentum into things that actually ship. You'll sit close to the centre of the company, see how all the pieces fit together, and make sure the important work doesn't slip through the cracks.
~70‑75% Chief of Staff: driving cross‑team initiatives, prepping decisions, keeping leadership priorities on track, and acting as a trusted proxy for the CEO.
~25‑30% executive support: the calendar, travel, and logistics that keep the CEO's time well spent.
