You'll report to the Chief of Staff to the CEO, rounding out the support functions for the CEO's office.

At the same time, our VP of People requires dedicated calendar and administrative support as the team scales, and our growing New York City office needs steady, consistent support during this period of growth. This role sits at the center of all three, offering a high-trust vantage point across executive leadership, People Operations, and office operations, with meaningful variety in scope from week to week.
