Chief of Staff, Strategy & AI Enablement

About the role

This is not a coordination role. This is a company-building role. Starting in the CEO office, you will shape how decisions are made, how priorities are set, and how execution happens across the entire organization — from the CEO level into the C-level layer, and from there into the company.

What you'll do

• Drive the CEO agenda across all functions and build and enforce a clear operating cadence (weekly, monthly, quarterly)
• Create full transparency on performance: GMV, Net Revenue, margin, working capital
• Break down company strategy into concrete, executable plans and align all CEO direct reports on priorities and timelines
• Work closely with Finance on P&L, balance sheet, and liquidity; understand and challenge core drivers: pricing, margin, AR/AP, capital efficiency
• Support investor communication and board preparation
• Apply AI to how the company runs — identify where workflows can be automated or improved and deploy tools that increase speed, quality, and leverage across teams
• Own cross-functional initiatives end-to-end (e.g. M&A, market expansion, funding) and run due diligence and support integration efforts

What you'll need

• 5+ years at McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group, or Bain & Company — or top-tier investment banking with strong M&A exposure
• Proven track record of applying AI tools in real operating environments
• Strong financial understanding (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow)
• Exceptional structuring and problem-solving skills
• Ability to operate under pressure in a high-performance environment
• Native-level English required; German strongly preferred

What they offer

• Direct exposure to board-level thinking and decision-making
• Full visibility across the company
• Steep learning curve with real responsibility from day one
