# Chief of staff to the CEO, [city] or hybrid

We are hiring our [first/second] chief of staff. You will sit alongside the [CEO/founder], run the operating cadence of the leadership team, write the memos that turn into decisions, and own the calendar problem nobody else owns. We are [N] people, [stage]. [Who you will partner with day to day].

## You will be good here if

- You have been a chief of staff or a senior operator at a [stage] company before, and you can describe in one paragraph what your CEO did with their last hour on a Friday.
- You write a one-page memo that lands a decision in one read. You have killed a recurring meeting as recently as you have set one up.
- [The third trait you actually care about].

## What you will not get

A team to delegate this to. The role is a force multiplier on the CEO, not a function in its own right.

## Compensation

[Currency][low] to [high] base. [low] to [high] percent equity. We post the band because we mean it.

## How we hire

30-second post, screen plus assessment via Picked, 20-minute interview via Picked, one on-site half-day with the CEO and one direct of theirs. We aim to give a yes or no in 7 days.

## What is the rubric

Pattern recognition, comms across the org, operational triage, discretion, quiet ambition. Not your last title.

That is the JD. Apply via [link] or just send a paragraph about the last process you ran that retired itself.
