The Chief of Staff will work closely with the CEO in key business functions such as strategy, recruiting, and operations.

This is one of the most important roles within the company. As Chief of Staff, you will work closely with the CEO across many of the most important business functions – strategy, recruiting, operations, fundraising, culture, and more. We’re willing to take 6 months to find the right person for this role, and want to make sure that we are incredibly aligned.


We're looking for traits rather than credentials. These include:

  • Strong taste

  • High IQ (>130)

  • High EQ

  • Low or medium ego

  • High ambition

  • Strategically sharp

  • Brilliant writing skills

  • Extremely reliable

  • Strong talent radar

  • Great cringe radar

  • Passion for health


Your role as Chief of Staff extends many of the CEO's roles as a founder. As a result, the bar is high. We care more about who you are than what you have done. We believe in potential more than credentials. Whilst we don’t have requirements around years of experience, I do believe that just about each of the above criteria should be met.


People who are suited to this role might have a background in venture capital or as a founder. You are likely conscientious, have high attention to detail, great people skills, and a strong intuition, particularly when it comes to identifying talent and understanding people. You are likely a strong communicator, both written and verbal, and can represent the company the way the CEO would. Importantly, you likely have good taste, are aesthetically inclined, and can effectively make decisions that required subjective or intuitive judgments.


An effective CoS will take over entire parts of the CEO's job and do them as or more effectively than he can. Such a CoS will be highly reliable, manage up, and level up the quality of the CEO's execution and the execution of the entire company.


Your role will change often, depending on where the biggest gaps are within the company and areas where you should focus. In particular, your role might include:

  1. Recruiting

  2. Investor relations

  3. Internal comms

  4. Brand

  5. Culture

  6. Special projects

  7. Modeling and analytics

  8. Company goal-setting
