Chief of Staff / Executive Assistant to the CEO

Utah County, Utah

$80K+/year (DOE)

Position Summary

You are the engine behind the engine. You’ll partner directly with the CEO/founder to manage high-impact projects, align stakeholders, and ensure nothing slips through the cracks. You’ll take ownership of execution, accountability, and coordination across ventures. Your goal: allow the CEO to operate at the highest level, free from operational friction.

You will:

+ Serve as an integrator, driving alignment across businesses

+ Be your leader’s “air traffic controller” — surface what matters, triage noise, orchestrate priorities

+ Communicate and hold teams accountable — you are the glue between ideas and execution

Key Responsibilities

Strategic & Operational Execution

+ Lead cross-functional projects end-to-end (from planning to execution to tracking to closure)

+ Manage and enforce stakeholder commitments and deadlines

+ Design, monitor, and optimize processes and workflows to scale execution

+ Generate reports, dashboards, summaries, and insights for leadership

Communication & Stakeholder Management

+ Serve as primary liaison with internal and external stakeholders

+ Ensure alignment, follow-ups, and clarity of expectation across teams

+ Proactively surface issues, risks, and decisions requiring executive attention

Calendar & Time Leverage

+ Own the leader’s calendar: prioritize, protect, and optimize their time

+ Anticipate scheduling conflicts, buffer time, and context-switch impact

+ Prepare briefing docs, agendas, pre-reads, and post-mortems for meetings

Meeting Logistics

+ Organize, run, and follow-up on key meetings (leadership, board, etc.)

+ Prepare presentations, decks, memos, and strategic summaries

Personal & Boundary Support

+ Handle select personal/administrative overflow (as agreed)

+ Protect the leader’s energy, focus, and mental bandwidth

Qualifications & Attributes

Must-Have

+ 7–10+ years of high-level support, operations, or project roles

+ Experience in scaling startups or growing companies

+ Strong project management skills (e.g. Asana, Monday, Notion, Airtable, or equivalent)

+ Background in marketing, operations, or product

+ Exceptional written and verbal communication skills

+ MBA or comparable training

+ Proven ability to influence and lead without authority

+ Experience supporting multiple ventures simultaneously

+ Extreme discretion and trustworthiness

+ Experience with board-level or investor relations

+ Ability to think 2–3 steps ahead, anticipate needs, and self-manage

+ Experience with personal/team financials, contracts, or legal admin

Nice-to-Have

+ Experience in scaling startups or growing companies

+ Background in marketing, operations, or product

+ MBA or comparable training

+ Experience supporting multiple ventures simultaneously

+ Experience with board-level or investor relations

+ Experience with personal/team financials, contracts, or legal admin

Compensation & Structure

+ Competitive base salary (depend on your market) + performance bonus tied to company and project outcomes

+ Paid for leadership-level contribution, not just hours

+ Clear growth path (e.g. transition toward full Chief of Staff, operations lead, or oversight of EA team)

How to Stand Out / Why Work Here

+ You’ll be working across multiple ventures, meaning exposure to many domains

+ High autonomy and ability to shape your own domain

+ You will not just “manage the calendar” — you’ll help build the company

+ You’ll be backed by a founder who expects excellence, gives freedom, and deeply values the right partner
