SUMMARY

The Chief of Staff serves as the Chairman's strategic partner, operational anchor, and execution engine across a wide portfolio of businesses, investments, and new ventures. This role supports the Chairman's highest priorities by driving clarity, velocity, and alignment across projects, ensuring that vision is consistently translated into action. The Chief of Staff will streamline decision-making, manage complex multi-stakeholder initiatives, oversee information flow, and proactively remove barriers so the Chairman can operate at maximum impact. This position also includes managing select personal scheduling, meetings, and commitments to protect the Chairman's time and enable focus. It is ideal for a highly intelligent, resourceful operator who thrives in a fast-paced environment, navigates ambiguity with confidence, and brings a disciplined, solutions-oriented approach to every challenge.

Operational Leadership

    • Project and Venture Management

  • Lead high-impact projects from concept through execution, coordinating across teams, partners, and external vendors.
  • Manage special initiatives related to new business development, investment diligence, strategic partnerships, and corporate innovation.
  • Track progress, risks, deliverables, and KPIs, ensuring alignment with the Chairman's goals and expectations.

    • Stakeholder and Relationship Management

  • Act as an extension of the Chairman in select meetings, communications, and negotiations, ensuring seamless representation and continuity.
  • Prepare briefs, talking points, memos, and follow-ups for internal and external engagements.
  • Help maintain and strengthen relationships with senior executives, partners, investors, boards, founders, and strategic collaborators.

    • Executive Enablement and Personal Coordination

  • Manage and prioritize the Chairman's calendar, meetings, and commitments across professional and personal domains.
  • Coordinate select personal matters that directly impact the Chairman's ability to focus on priority initiatives.
  • Create boundaries and structure that protect high-value strategic time.

    • Communications and Analysis

  • Produce executive-level summaries, recommendations, presentations, and research that support strategic choices.
  • Synthesize information across businesses, markets, and teams into concise, actionable insights.
  • Drive follow-through to ensure decisions become outcomes.
