About The Position

The Special Officer, Office of the CEO – United States is a foundational, execution-focused role supporting A1’s US market entry and office setup. You will work closely with the CEO and early leadership team to support the practical, day-to-day execution required to establish A1’s US presence. This includes office setup, coordination across teams, early hiring support, and keeping launch-related activities moving forward. This role is intentionally broad and flexible, suited for someone who enjoys building from zero, handling ambiguity, and taking ownership of follow-through. It is not a pure administrative role - while coordination and logistics are core, you will also be involved in building local networks, engaging recruiters, supporting early hiring efforts, and helping maintain launch momentum.

Requirements

  • Experience in office administration, operations, executive support, startup operations, or business coordination
  • Strong organisational skills and ability to manage multiple moving pieces in an unstructured environment
  • Comfort working closely with senior leadership and handling sensitive information
  • Strong communication skills and confidence engaging external parties (e.g. recruiters, vendors, partners)
  • Hands-on, proactive mindset—comfortable figuring things out without a playbook
  • Willingness to take on both operational and business-facing tasks as needed
  • (Background is flexible. What matters most is your ability to execute, adapt, and build from zero.)

Responsibilities

  • Support the CEO directly on US launch activities, including scheduling, preparation, follow-ups, and execution of priorities tied to office and team setup.
  • Help set up the US office from scratch, including basic operational arrangements, vendor coordination, documentation, and local admin workflows.
  • Build and maintain a network of recruiters, hiring partners, and service providers in the US to support early-stage hiring needs.
  • Coordinate early hiring and interview logistics, working closely with internal TA teams and external recruiters.
  • Act as a central execution point across HR, Finance, Operations, and Product teams to ensure US launch activities stay on track.
  • Prepare materials, summaries, and briefing notes to support meetings, pitches, and discussions related to hiring, partnerships, and setup.
  • Handle ad-hoc requests, last-minute changes, and urgent execution needs with speed, flexibility, and sound judgment.
