KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Strategy & Business Operations

• Own the day-to-day operations of the CEO Office — designing, documenting, and managing processes end-to-end to ensure smooth execution across all initiatives.
• Build frameworks, operating rhythms, and accountability structures that scale the CEO Office and Executive Team’s impact without adding headcount.
• Identify inefficiencies, diagnose root causes, and implement structured, sustainable solutions using lean, agile, and continuous improvement principles.
• Translate strategic priorities into executable plans, defining owners, milestones, and success metrics while keeping the CEO and leadership team aligned and focused.
• Serve as the operational backbone of the CEO Office — ensuring strategy, programs, and cross-functional initiatives are coordinated, tracked, and delivered with impact.

Growth Strategy Programs

• Lead cross-functional growth initiatives from problem definition and planning through execution and measurement, focusing on strategic priorities rather than GTM operations.
• Build business cases, impact models, and frameworks to prioritize high-leverage growth opportunities and initiatives.
• Support international growth readiness (e.g., EU/Japan) by structuring cross-functional workstreams, aligning stakeholders, and tracking progress toward strategic objectives.
• Provide analysis and recommendations for pricing and packaging initiatives — including segmentation, business cases, rollout plans, and internal enablement — ensuring alignment with overall growth strategy.
• Own end-to-end project and program management for CEO Office initiatives, tracking owners, milestones, risks, and outcomes.
• Drive multiple complex, cross-functional workstreams simultaneously while ensuring progress, ownership, and measurable outcomes.

Executive Preparation & AI-Enabled Execution

• Produce executive-ready memos, briefings, and slide decks for high-stakes meetings, board reviews, and key customer interactions.
• Frame strategic options and recommendations for leadership decisions, ensuring trade-offs, risks, and implications are clearly articulated.
• Build institutional knowledge of the business, customers, partners, and competitors to anticipate what executives need.
• Use AI to accelerate analysis, synthesis, and the creation of repeatable workflows across CEO Office initiatives.
• Prototype lightweight tools, templates, automations, and repeatable analyses to scale CEO Office execution capacity.

Anything It Takes / Cross-Functional Support

• Show up as a true strategic partner to the CEO Office — ready to take on the unexpected, fill gaps, and do what the business needs at the moment.
• Engage in real-time prioritization conversations with the CEO, Chief of Staff, and COO — flagging trade-offs, surfacing risks, and offering a clear point of view.
• Bring a company-builder mindset — proactively improving workflows, processes, and execution across the organization.
