Job Description: Chief of Staff to Founder & Managing Director

Location: Greater Noida, WORK FROM OFFICE

Reporting to: Founder & Managing Director

Experience: 4 - 9 years

Employment Type: Full-time

About the Opportunity:

We are a high-growth company that closed the last financial year at approximately 350 crore in turnover and is targeting 500+ crore this financial year - a step-change in scale that is reshaping how we operate, hire, and make decisions.

To support this next phase of growth, we are looking for a Chief of Staff who will work in direct partnership with the Founder & Managing Director - effectively becoming an extension of their thinking, judgment, and execution capacity. This is not a traditional support role. It is a high-trust, high-ownership position for someone who wants to operate at the center of a fast-paced, rapidly scaling organization.

What This Role Really Is:

Think of this as being the shadow of the Founder - present in the rooms that matter, aware of the priorities that matter, and trusted to drive them forward even when the Founder isn't in the room. You will move fluidly between strategy and execution: one day building a board deck, the next day chasing a cross-functional deliverable to the finish line, the next day sitting in on a critical client or investor conversation.

Key Responsibilities:

- Extend the Founder's bandwidth - act as a trusted proxy in meetings, follow-ups, and decision-making where appropriate, ensuring nothing critical falls through the cracks.

- Drive strategic initiatives - own special projects end-to-end, from market entry plans to internal transformation programs, coordinating across functions to get things done.

- Bridge the Founder's office and the rest of the organization: translate high-level priorities into clear action plans for department heads, and surface ground realities back to the Founder.

- Prepare for high-stakes moments - board meetings, investor updates, leadership offsites, and key client/partner conversations, including data, narrative, and briefing notes.

- Track what matters - build and maintain a system to monitor progress on the company's top priorities and flag risks early.

- Operate as a thinking partner - pressure-test ideas, bring structure to ambiguous problems, and help the Founder prioritize ruthlessly in a fast-moving environment.

- Represent the Founder's office internally and, at times, externally, with judgment and discretion.

What We're Looking For:

- A track record of working in high-ownership, high-ambiguity environments - consulting, investment banking, startups, or a prior Chief of Staff or Founder's Office role are all relevant backgrounds.

- Strong first-principles thinking and structured problem-solving ability.

- Excellent communication skills - able to write a crisp board note as easily as they can align a room of function heads.

- Comfort with ambiguity and speed - this role will not have a fixed playbook; you will often be building the plane while flying it.

- High EQ and discretion - you will be privy to sensitive, confidential information and need to be trusted implicitly.

- A genuine hunger to learn how a business scales from 350 crore to 500+ crore and beyond, and the willingness to go wherever the business needs you - literally and figuratively.

- Founder-mindset: someone who takes ownership like it's their own company, not just their job.
