What you will do

Note that this is a primarily office-based role (~4 days per week).

We are seeking a Chief of Staff (CoS) to report to our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and sit on our leadership team (LT). In this role, you will own a portfolio of strategic, cross-functional projects, manage core LT business operations, and deliver industry research and financial analysis that influences company strategy and priorities at the highest level. The ideal candidate will seek to use this position as a springboard for a broader role within the organization after 1-2 years.

The successful candidate is highly strategic yet deeply connected to the details. You have strong project management skills, a proven track record building productive working relationships with C-level customers and internal stakeholders, a very high bar for written and verbal communication, and an ability to put structure around ambiguous situations to ‘cut through the noise’, remove blockers, and deliver results at pace. Beyond the day job, we are looking for candidates who share our enthusiasm about the potential for Zero100 to have a positive impact on the supply chain profession and (more broadly) the planet.
