The Company
We are hiring a high-agency Chief of Staff to support a fast-moving founder-led team in scaling operations, improving execution speed, and driving cross-functional coordination across business priorities.
This role is ideal for a resourceful, proactive generalist who thrives in ambiguity, communicates clearly, and can operate as a force multiplier across multiple areas of the business.
What you’ll do
* Act as a right hand to the founder, helping manage priorities, execution, and day-to-day operational flow
* Coordinate across projects, ensuring deadlines are met and nothing falls through the cracks
* Support business operations with research, problem-solving, and structured thinking
* Help manage communications, documentation, and internal alignment across stakeholders
* Identify issues early and take initiative to solve problems without needing heavy direction
* Support social media and creator economy-related initiatives where needed
* Assist with light strategic work, including analysis, planning, and execution support
What we’re looking for
* A “jack or jill of all trades” who is highly adaptable and eager to learn
* Strong written and verbal communication skills
* Excellent critical thinking and problem-solving ability
* Proactive, self-directed, and able to take ownership without constant oversight
* Highly reliable, trustworthy, and comfortable handling sensitive information
* Familiarity or interest in social media, digital business, or the creator economy
* Comfortable working EST-aligned hours (or having worked EST hours for multiple years)
* Strong preference for candidates based in Latin America or South Africa
Hiring process
* Candidates submit a short video introduction before interviews
* Async-first evaluation process to respect time and efficiency
* Fast-moving selection with emphasis on execution ability and communication quality
Compensation
* Typically $1,500 to $2,500 USD/month depending on experience and location
If you are someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, enjoys owning outcomes, and wants direct exposure to building and scaling a business, this role will be a strong fit.
