Chief of Staff to the CEO

Textio•San Francisco, CA

2d•$155,000 - $185,000•Hybrid

About The Position

We're at a turning point: new product in market, new operating model, a lot of moving pieces. We need someone who can translate strategy into action, cut through organizational friction, and make sure the things that matter actually get done. This role touches everything. You'll work across every function, sit in on the conversations that shape where we're going, and own outcomes that directly impact our trajectory. It's high-intensity, high-stakes, and probably the fastest way to learn what it actually takes to scale a company. San Francisco–based. 1–3 days in person. This is not a 40-hour-a-week job. The pace is demanding, the learning curve is steep, and the work carries outsized impact.

Requirements

3+ years in a startup, high-growth, or consulting environment
Experience leading cross-functional projects and supporting executive leadership
Strong data skills —you're comfortable digging into numbers and turning them into decisions
Clear, sharp communication skills—written and verbal
You have a bias toward experimenting with AI and helping the team adopt what actually works

Nice To Haves

Familiarity with tools like PostHog, Salesforce, and AI applications (Claude, Motion, etc.) is a plus

Responsibilities

Run the operating rhythm of the company. You'll own leadership team coordination, planning cycles (quarterly and annual), and make sure priorities stay aligned across functions.
Be the connective tissue between strategy and execution. When something's falling through the cracks or a project needs someone to drive it home, that's you.
Own board prep and executive communications. You'll prepare materials, shape the narrative, and make sure we're telling a clear, accurate story to stakeholders.
Translate customer signal into action. You'll sit close to what customers are telling us and help turn those insights into decisions that move the product and company forward.
Support the CEO's external presence. This includes LinkedIn, social content, podcast prep, and research—making sure it's sharp and aligned with how we talk about ourselves.
Find the gaps and fix them. You'll spot where we're losing momentum or operating inefficiently, and propose solutions before things break.
