Chief of Staff, Strategy & AI Enablement

About the Role

We are hiring a Chief of Staff to the CEO. This is not a coordination role. This is a company-building role.

You will operate at the center of how Andercore runs. Across strategy, execution, finance, and operations. With exposure to the board and full proximity to the CEO.

• Your job is not the product. Your job is the company itself.
• Starting in the CEO office, you will shape how decisions are made, how priorities are set, and how execution happens across the entire organization. From the CEO level into the C-level layer, and from there into the company.
• Your mandate is simple: make the company run better, faster, and more intelligently – every single day.

What You Will Do

Run the Company Operating System

• Drive the CEO agenda across all functions
• Build and enforce a clear operating cadence (weekly, monthly, quarterly)
• Create full transparency on performance: GMV, Net Revenue, margin, working capital
• Identify bottlenecks early and force resolution

Translate Strategy into Execution

• Break down company strategy into concrete, executable plans
• Align all CEO direct reports on priorities and timelines
• Track execution rigorously and intervene where needed
• Act as sparring partner to senior leadership

Own Business and Financial Steering

• Work closely with Finance on P&L, balance sheet, and liquidity
• Understand and challenge core drivers: pricing, margin, AR/AP, capital efficiency
• Support investor communication and board preparation
• Ensure decision-making is data-driven and fast

Drive AI in How We Operate

• Apply AI to how the company runs – not to the product itself
• Identify where workflows can be automated or improved
• Deploy tools that increase speed, quality, and leverage across teams
• Push for continuous improvement in execution

Lead High-Impact Projects

• Own cross-functional initiatives end-to-end (e.g. M&A, market expansion, funding)
• Run due diligence and support integration efforts
• Solve ambiguous, high-stakes problems with speed and clarity

What We Are Looking For

• 5+ years at McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group, or Bain & Company
  or top-tier investment banking with strong M&A exposure
• Proven track record of applying AI tools in real operating environments
• Strong financial understanding (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow)
• Exceptional structuring and problem-solving skills
• Ability to operate under pressure in a high-performance environment

Languages

• Native-level English required
• German strongly preferred

What Success Looks Like

• Decisions are faster, better, and data-driven
• AI meaningfully improves internal execution
• The CEO is focused on the highest-leverage topics
• The company runs on a clear, enforced operating system
• Leadership is aligned and executes with speed and clarity

Why Join

• Work directly with the CEO on the most critical topics
• Exposure to board-level thinking and decision-making
• Full visibility across the company
• Opportunity to shape how a high-growth company is run
• Steep learning curve with real responsibility from day one
