About the Company

Our client is a seed-stage HealthTech startup leveraging AI to transform breakthrough behavioral healthcare. They are developing the foundational infrastructure for the next generation of in-person behavioral health — a data-driven operating system designed to empower practices to prioritize what matters most: patients.

The Role

As Chief of Staff, you’ll work directly with the CEO as an operator, strategist, and builder, turning ambiguity into clarity and driving key initiatives across product, operations, and partnerships.

Partner with the CEO and COO on strategic planning, board/investor communications, quarterly objectives and special projects
Drive cross-functional execution and collaboration between product, operations & clinical to deliver results
Lead high-priority special projects and initiatives that don’t yet have a dedicated owner — building the systems and processes that allow the company’s scalability.
Turn strategy into execution, from account management to data analytics to new business development.
Own the internal operating cadence (OKRs, leadership meetings, company-wide updates, and documentation).
Support hiring & org design as they scale, ensuring the continued success of the business with the right people & processes in place.
Serve as a thought partner to the CEO, identifying gaps, simplifying complexity, and helping anticipate what’s around the corner.

What They’re Looking For

This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast, and loves turning ideas into structure & execution.
