CHIEF OF STAFF ROLE OVERVIEW

As Chief of Staff to the CEO of JobEcademy, you’ll help lead a small, fast-paced startup to launch and scale nationally within months. You’ll work closely with a seasoned founder & team to help manage and execute on almost every aspect of the company. Just weeks away from the soft launch of our platform, you will immediately jump in and start executing on critical day-to-day tasks from product development to recruiting, project management, legal, go-to-market strategy & execution and more. You will take and run projects from concept to execution and should have the ability to zoom in from the big picture to incredible attention to detail all while balancing often competing and changing priorities. You should have exceptional organizational abilities and manage up to the CEO while helping translate his priorities into action. This role is not an executive assistant or glorified manager one but rather a former founder or former early startup employee who has experience in management and making big decisions and can also dive into the weeds when necessary and get their hands dirty. Early market entry, digital marketing, sales / business development are a plus for this role.

You love solving hard problems; there is no challenge too great for you.
You have no desire to stop at 5pm; you want to be part of a fast-paced team.
