Job Description

About the Role

Join an early-stage legal technology company as its founding Chief of Staff, partnering directly with the CEO. You will help shape strategy, operations, and growth while establishing AI-first ways of working across the organization.

What You'll Do

  • Partner with the CEO on strategic initiatives, including fundraising and investor relations.
  • Build go-to-market, sales, content marketing, and hiring processes from the ground up, then transition ownership to dedicated leaders as the company scales.
  • Drive the adoption of AI-native operations in collaboration with leadership.
  • Lead high-impact, hands-on projects across multiple functions.

What We're Looking For

  • Typically 2 to 10+ years of experience, including experience as a Chief of Staff or in a comparable cross-functional founder-support role.
  • Experience at an early-stage startup or as a company founder, and a track record of building processes from zero to one in go-to-market, sales, marketing, or hiring.
  • Experience working directly with a CEO or founders on strategic initiatives; fundraising or investor relations experience is helpful.
  • Daily, practical use of AI tools in core workflows, with strong analytical thinking and first-principles problem-solving skills.
  • Fluency in German and English, an entrepreneurial mindset, and comfort working in a fast-paced, unstructured environment.
  • Management consulting experience and an interest in founding a company are valued.
