About The Position

Sonar is seeking a highly motivated, organized, and resourceful Analyst to join the CEO Office. The Analyst works directly with the Chief of Staff (CoS) and CEO, providing flexible support across a varied mix of analysis, planning, writing, coordination, and execution. The role supports the CoS, CEO, and Executive Leadership Team (ELT), helping the CEO Office run smoothly and keeping the company aligned. Work may range from preparing the CEO for high-profile events to analyzing business metrics and supporting company-wide events. The position requires comfort with ambiguity, fast learning, attention to detail, rapid prioritization, and the ability to switch between ongoing responsibilities and urgent, one-off requests. Alongside ad hoc projects, the Analyst owns ongoing workstreams covering the company's internal knowledge base, internal events and presentations, and practical use of AI tools to improve how the CEO Office operates. Sonar's in-office culture has three anchor days—Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday—and candidates must be genuinely based in the location where the role is posted. Relocation may be supported for the right person.
