Chief of Staff

Job Description:

We're looking for a Chief of Staff to work directly with a serial founder (the founder's previous startup reached unicorn status and was funded by the likes of Sequioa). The start up is currently operating in stealth mode in the AI x telecommunications space. Candidates have to be located in the Bay Area. As lots of collaboration is required in this early stage, the team has an in-office work policy though of course reasonable work-from- home requests are accommodated. Please note that as an early stage start up, we are not able to sponsor visas or contribute to relocation expenses.

​

This is a rare opportunity to be part of a 0-1 startup journey with experienced hands. The startup already has a stellar founding team, a group of senior advisors who believe in the mission, and top tier commercial partners.

​

The ideal candidate needs to be a hands on doer and be comfortable flexing roles in a fast changing environment. Organizational, project management and cat herding skills are essential as you'll be relied upon to run the organization's 'engine' - tracking and enforcing discipline on agreed OKRs etc. Facilitation activities are core to the role. 0-1 experience in a start-up environment is preferred but not necessary.

​

Tasks include but are not limited to:

• Oversight and management of OKRs and workplans
• Facilitation of meetings (e.g. problem solving sessions, all-hands calls)
• Fundraising and communications / PR support
• Operational support (setting up company infrastructure, hiring support etc)
• Business development support
• Sounding board to the Founder on strategy and operational topics

​

Experience in AI and/or Telecommunications will be a plus but not necessary. The willingness and ability to learn quickly and be proactive about self education is a must. Strong people skills are crucial.
