So even if you don't meet every single requirement, please consider applying if you like what you see. Though many of our roles are assigned to a particular office location, most are a hybrid of remote and in-person work.
The Chief of Staff (CoS) provides operational and communications partnership to the COO and ELT. Reporting to the COO, the individual will play a key enabling and facilitating role acting with, and on behalf, of the COO working with senior leadership, employees, and other important stakeholders.

The position is multi-dimensional in nature and requires an ability to quickly learn and understand A360's business, not only from an operational perspective, but also from a technological perspective. The individual will be able to appreciate the key elements that drive success today, as well as position A360 for our continued success into the future.

- Partner with the Executive Assistant to drive overall management of the CEO's calendar to ensure it maximizes productivity and effectiveness. This also includes an ability to proactively "connect the dots" to identify where issues and conflicts might arise
- Provide a critical role in driving the cadence of updates and follow-up actions related to senior leadership initiatives
What You'll Do In This Role:
- Analyze A360's opportunities for expansion
- Lead and contribute to special projects as assigned by the COO and/or senior leadership
- Design and implement processes to improve executive decision-making, monitor progress, communication and execution. Maintain order in a fast-paced environment
- Create, edit and project manage presentation materials (external and internal)
- Assist in Board, and investor meeting preparations, including pitch decks
- Run regular leadership meetings, and offsites, including formulating and managing the strategic agenda of the team
- Collaborate with internal stakeholders on effective organizational structures and practices, looking for opportunities to improve inefficiencies within the organization
What We're Looking For:
- Extremely organized with project management experience, and the ability to ruthlessly prioritize
- Experience working in a fast-paced environment with a focus on results
- Analytical and strategic thinker who is able to align detailed work to the big picture objectives

- Personal integrity, with the demonstrated ability to handle sensitive and confidential information. Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Thrives in ever-changing environments and is excited by ambiguity
- Startup experience preferred
- Minimum 6 years of experience in roles working with executives
Don't Bother Applying If Any Of These Things Are True About You:
- You're afraid to get your hands dirty (really)
- You're afraid to "carry the water"
- You're concerned with work/life balance and are looking for a 9-to-5 job
