About the company
Our client is a fast-growing software company.

- Set up the management rhythm for the business, including goal setting, named owners, performance measures and decision follow-up.
- Act as a trusted extension of the founders on high-visibility efforts, seeing them from concept to completion.
- Create lightweight internal processes and apply AI tools to reduce manual, repetitive tasks.
- Pick up new issues that lack a clear owner, develop a workable process for them and transition it to others as the organization expands.
