Chief of Staff

Chief of Staff

You'll serve as a force multiplier for the CEO — owning the company's operating rhythm, enabling strategic clarity, and driving execution across Browzwear's global leadership team. You'll also be the CEO's primary point person on AI, identifying opportunities, making investment recommendations, and leading implementation of AI-driven process improvements across the business.

This role is ideal for a high-potential operator with 5–8 years in consulting, banking, corporate strategy, or a high-growth tech company — someone who thrives without formal authority, moves fast with incomplete information, and can hold the thread across board presentations, cross-functional escalations, and special projects on the same day.

Role details

Reports to: Chief Executive Officer

Level: Senior Manager / Director

Location: Remote — East Coast US to Central Europe (UTC−5 to UTC+2)

Travel: International travel required; ~15–25% annually

Languages: English (fluent); Mandarin Chinese (professional proficiency preferred)

What you'll own

CEO leverage

• Manage CEO and ELT priorities and meeting agendas to ensure time is allocated to the highest-leverage decisions.
• Prepare and quality-control board materials, investor decks, ELT pre-reads, and briefing documents.
• Act as a trusted proxy in cross-functional discussions; draft communications on behalf of the CEO to internal and external audiences.
• Own follow-through from ELT meetings, QBRs, and external commitments — closing the loop on open decisions.

Operating rhythm

• Own the company's planning and review calendar: annual planning, OKR cycles, QBRs, and monthly performance check-ins.
• Drive cross-functional accountability on strategic initiatives — tracking progress, surfacing drift, and escalating where needed.
• Synthesize signals from Sales, Product, CS, R&D, and Finance into an integrated view of business health for the CEO and ELT.

AI strategy & implementation

• Serve as the CEO's primary point person on AI — evaluating opportunities, making recommendations, and driving adoption across the business.
• Identify high-value process improvement opportunities enabled by AI; lead implementation in partnership with R&D, Product, and functional teams.
• Measure and report on AI initiative impact against productivity, quality, and cost objectives.

Special projects

• Lead time-bound, cross-functional projects with ambiguous scope — M&A processes, investor presentations, partnership development, or organizational design.
• Prepare executive-level materials for PE investors, strategic partners, and board members.

What we're looking for

Required

• 5–8 years in management consulting, investment banking, corporate strategy, or a high-growth technology company.

• Hands-on proficiency with AI tools (LLMs, automation platforms); able to pilot and implement AI-driven workflows without technical mediation.
• Highly organized with high tolerance for ambiguity; makes progress without waiting for perfect information.
• Ability to build credibility and work effectively across all levels of seniority, globally.

Strongly preferred

• Professional proficiency in Mandarin Chinese (spoken and written).
• Experience in B2B SaaS, enterprise software, or a PE-backed technology company.
• Exposure to M&A, due diligence, or investor relations.
