Junior Chief of Staff
You'll work directly with a founder or senior executive running a high-growth company in the US or Europe. Not as a task-taker. As the operational layer that keeps everything moving.
You'll own the full picture: priorities, people, open loops, and decisions. You'll know what's coming before they do. You'll handle what you can without asking, and brief them cleanly on what you can't. You'll be the reason things don't fall through the cracks.
This is not an admin role. It's a high-trust, high-ownership position for someone who wants to build a career in operations, chief of staff, or founder-adjacent leadership.
What you'll own
Track and close open loops across the executive's full workload
Calendar, inbox, and communications management
Meeting prep, decision briefs, and post-call follow-up
Task and priority management across the executive and their team
Research, structured recommendations, and scenario planning
CRM management and reporting
Proactive identification of problems before they surface
Long-term projects with real business impact
Who this is for
3 to 4 years of experience in operations, EA, founder's associate, or a similarly high-ownership role
You move before being asked, and you close the loop without being reminded
Strong written and spoken English, you communicate clearly at executive level
Comfortable managing up: you push back when something doesn't make sense
What you get
Monthly salary up to R 30,000
Performance-based bonuses that can add up to 3 months salary
Modern laptop/hardware provided by us
Specialized training in AI and LLM tools
Access to a community of automation engineers, designers, and senior operators
How we hire
Selection is rigorous. We care about judgment, ownership, and the ability to operate in ambiguity. If you meet the bar, you'll know it quickly.
