Why this role exists
We're a founder-led company running two business lines across four countries. Things get committed to in meetings and Slack threads — and then don't close unless the CEO personally chases them. That's a cadence problem, not a talent problem, and it's the problem you're here to solve.
You will own the company's operating rhythm and drive decisions from made to done — across a senior leadership team you don't manage. When you're doing this well, follow-up becomes structural instead of the CEO's job.Fractional Chief of Staff
Company: Workday consulting + AI/SaaS products company (~40 people, US HQ)
Location: Remote, US-anchored hours; team spans US, India, Singapore, and Switzerland
Commitment: ~2–3 hours/day (fractional), monthly retainer
Reports to: Founder & CEO Start: 60–90 day trial → ongoing

What you'll own
- Operating cadence. Design and run the weekly and monthly operating reviews: agenda, pre-reads, decisions logged, owners and dates assigned, progress tracked between meetings.
- Accountability tracking.



Maintain a single source of truth for commitments across the leadership team. Know the status of every open loop and surface what's slipping before it's late.
- Follow-through, on the CEO's behalf. Chase progress with senior leaders — a revenue leader, a practice lead, a delivery lead, country heads — with the CEO's authority behind you, and without creating friction. Delivery is where commitments most often slip against client timelines, so keeping the delivery lead on track is a core part of the mandate.
- Meeting-to-action discipline. Turn leadership discussions into clear owners, deadlines, and next steps. Close the loop.
- CEO leverage. Prep the CEO for the week, flag what needs attention, and keep priorities visible so nothing key goes cold.

Who you are
- You've been a Chief of Staff, COO-lite, or head of operations at a 30–150 person company, ideally distributed / multi-timezone.
- You've held peers and senior leaders accoun
