About the Role
Matter is seeking a Chief of Staff to collaborate directly with the CEO on critical strategic initiatives spanning engineering, commercial, finance, legal, and operations. This role requires a blend of strategic thinking and execution, translating company priorities into actionable plans, facilitating cross-functional alignment, and ensuring project momentum.
Responsibilities
- Drive strategic initiatives directly for the CEO, from problem definition through execution, follow-through, and operating cadence.
- Connect engineering, commercial, finance, legal, and operations teams to keep priorities aligned and dependencies visible.
- Turn executive priorities into clear workstreams, owners, timelines, decision points, and communication rhythms.
- Identify where the company is blocked, misaligned, or under-resourced, and help resolve issues before they become bottlenecks.
- Support company planning, leadership meetings, board and investor materials, operating reviews, and cross-functional decision-making.
- Partner with commercial and product leaders to ensure customer commitments, product direction, delivery requirements, and business priorities stay connected.
- Partner with finance and legal on contracts, approvals, budgets, procurement, compliance, and other operating systems as the company scales.
- Build lightweight processes that improve execution without adding bureaucracy.
- Take on special projects where the company needs focused ownership and there is not yet a clear functional home.
Requirements
- 4+ years of experience in a high-performance operating environment such as an early-stage startup, strategy / business operations role, management consulting, investing, product operations, or a founder / founding-team role.
- Exceptional judgment, organization, and follow-through in ambiguous situations.
- Demonstrated ability to drive cross-functional work across technical, commercial, financial, legal, or operational stakeholders.
- Strong written and verbal communication; able to turn complexity into clear decisions, narratives, and operating plans.
- High ownership: willing to take responsibility for outcomes, not just coordination.
- Strong analytical ability and comfort working with financial, operational, customer, and product information.
- Low ego and high trustworthiness; able to operate with sensitive information and work closely with senior leaders.
- Bias to action, resourcefulness, and comfort building structure where none exists.
- Technical curiosity and the ability to earn credibility with engineers and scientists without needing to be the technical expert.
