  • Collaborate deeply with legal, privacy, and compliance teams, embedding operational risk management into product development timelines.
  • Draft and deliver executive communications (internally and externally) that reinforce clarity and confidence across stakeholders.
  • Facilitate structured collaboration across domains, aligning strategy and execution through clear operating cadences.
  • Champion continuous improvement, bringing an agile, data-informed mindset to operational tooling, reporting systems, and team enablement.

Requirements

  • Extensive operational leadership experience in early-stage or high-growth environments, ideally within product, technology or innovation portfolios.
  • Background as a Chief of Staff, senior program manager, or operations lead, with both strategic foresight and tactical capability.
  • A builder's mindset with proven experience designing new teams, workflows or operational systems from scratch.
  • Executive presence and exceptional communication skills, with the ability to influence senior stakeholders, facilitate alignment, and represent venture progress at the highest levels.
  • Strong command of Agile and Scrum frameworks, with the fluency to guide execution approaches, not just participate in them.
  • Operational rigor and technical fluency that's comfortable managing workflows, reporting systems and PM tools.
  • Experience integrating and aligning with privacy, legal and compliance functions within a fast-paced development context.
  • Proven ability to lead resource planning, budgeting, and hiring efforts in collaboration with senior functional leads.
  • Adept at driving clarity and alignment across complex stakeholder networks, ensuring accountability and execution at scale.
