Chief of Staff

The Role:

EVERY is seeking a Chief of Staff to the CEO who is adaptable, fast-paced, business-savvy, and a strategic communicator. The Chief of Staff is responsible for ensuring the Office of the CEO delivers against its goals. In partnership with the CEO's Sr. Executive Assistant, the Chief of Staff will not only ensure the CEO delivers against his priorities, but also manage end-to-end workstreams and Special Projects. The Chief of Staff will be heavily involved in fundraising efforts, and responsible for investor relations and Board of Directors management. This role serves as a strategic thought partner to the CEO on all company matters, and must be able to readily pivot to new  priorities that enter the fold.  Qualitatively, the Chief of Staff must also have high EQ as the role requires cross-functional facilitation between myriad internal and external relationships. This person must also not be afraid to push for clarity when tasks/workstreams are ambiguous, and even be aggressive/assertive internally to push for timely delivery of materials from other parts of the organization.

• Maintain strong relations with and manage Board of Directors comms with the CEO. Attend, take notes, capture follow-ups, and prepare the CEO for all monthly 1-1 check-ins with Directors.

• Office of the CEO Day-to-Day Management. Work with Sr. Executive Business Partner to ensure CEO's priorities are worthwhile, and accelerate all items that can move without the CEO's direct attention (e.g., quick email replies). Sr. Executive Business Partner is responsible for the CEO's calendar, but the Chief of Staff is the strategic lens in the Office of the CEO to ensure that the calendar "makes sense" including suggesting adjustments to the calendar, proposing meetings that should happen, and capturing CEO requests for meetings.
