[Hiring] Chief of Staff to the CEO @Axonify

Role Description

The Chief of Staff is the CEO’s strategic and operational partner. You’ll extend the CEO’s reach across the company: shaping priorities, preparing the executive team and board to make decisions, and making sure those decisions turn into owned, tracked action.

You’ll also drive how the company runs: the planning cycle, the meeting cadence, the performance metrics framework and internal communications. This is an individual contributor role on the Executive Leadership Team, reporting to the CEO and working across Product, Engineering, Marketing, Revenue, Customer Success, Finance, People and Legal. You’ll lead through influence, with executive peers and their teams.

What You’ll Build

• Strategic Partnership with the CEO, Executive Team and Board
  • Act as the CEO’s primary strategic and operational sounding board, and a trusted thought partner to the executive team.
  • Turn operational data, functional updates and market intelligence into concise briefs that speed up decisions.
  • Track decisions from executive sessions and board meetings so each has an owner, a date and a follow-up.
  • Own the end-to-end prep cycle for quarterly board meetings, and partner with the Chief Financial Officer and Legal on investor updates, committee deliverables and governance reporting.
• Operating Rhythm and Performance
  • Design and run the company’s operating rhythm: weekly executive meetings, monthly performance reviews, quarterly business reviews, town halls and annual offsites, including the agenda, prep and synthesis for each.
  • Partner with Finance on annual and multi-year planning, owning the process and narrative that connects company goals to functional plans and budgets.
  • Define the company’s top-level performance metrics, standardize reporting, and build a corporate dashboard as the single source of truth on company health.
  • Hold leaders accountable to milestones through regular performance reviews.
  • Own the internal comms agenda, from leader-led cascades to town halls, and shape executive messaging for high-stakes announcements.
• Cross-Functional Initiatives and Change
  • Lead or sponsor the company’s highest-priority, multi-department initiatives.
  • Find bottlenecks, dependency risks and communication gaps between functions, and put processes in place to fix them.
  • Drive change management for key growth initiatives.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of progressive leadership in Chief of Staff, Business Operations, Corporate Operations or GTM Operations roles at fast-growing B2B technology companies, including working alongside or at the executive level.
• Deep understanding of enterprise SaaS business models, unit economics and how functions depend on each other.
• A track record of partnering directly with a CEO, leading board preparation and aligning executive peers.
• Experience designing planning cycles, meeting cadences and KPI frameworks that outlasted you.
• Comfort with operational models, and the ability to work with Finance to define key model drivers, the KPIs to monitor, and targets.
• Crisp writing, discretion with confidential matters, and the ability to earn trust at every level of the company.
