Our client is a fast-growing AI finance startup seeking a Chief of Staff to work directly with both founders daily — owning recruiting, sales ops, GTM experimentation, and internal execution across every function.
This is an early-career, high-slope role for someone who is exceptionally organized, moves fast, and is eager to break into the startup world — with a clear path to growing into a senior operator as the company scales.
What You'll Do
Manage hiring and recruiting operations — sourcing, interviewing, and tracking candidates as the team scales
Own pilot success for sales engagements — sit in on client calls, project manage proof-of-value steps, and ensure clients have a seamless experience
Drive GTM experimentation — identify which channels are working, optimize outbound email and ad campaigns using AI tools, and double down on what's performing
Work directly with both founders daily across recruiting, customer follow-up, sales ops, investor relations, and internal execution
Make decisions autonomously while executing on founder priorities with speed and precision
Leverage AI tools extensively — Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, and Codex — to automate and accelerate operations
Key Requirements
1–4 years of post-grad experience; sweet spot is 1–2 years out with high slope
MBB consulting strongly preferred; banking or PE analyst program also a strong fit
Early-stage startup Chief of Staff, BizOps, or Strategy & Ops experience considered
Hands-on daily use of AI tools — must be able to speak to what they've automated or built
Project management and implementation experience — ran workstreams end-to-end
Strong school pedigree — top-20 or Stanford/Harvard tier preferred
Ability to use or interest in learning Claude Code and Codex
