Chief of Staff

Why Crucibl Management consulting is a $400B industry built on selling intelligence-for-hire. The model is breaking - not slowly, but now. The biggest frontier in enterprise AI isn't better models. It's judgment at scale: taking the messy, ambiguous decisions that run 85% of the global economy and making them faster, crisper, and more defensible. Crucibl is building that. We're profitable, growing fast, and delivering for Fortune 500 clients. We raised a $10M seed from Tier 1 VCs - then kept growing on revenue. The client pipeline is full. We're scaling to meet it. The Role You are the force multiplier for the CEO and the founding team. Not just an operator - a strategic partner who ensures the company scales as fast as the product. You'll bridge high-level strategy and relentless execution at a moment when both matter enormously: we have paying Fortune 500 clients and more demand than we can serve. Now we need to build the machine. What You'll Do Strategic Projects Own high-impact initiatives that cut across the business - vertical expansion, pricing strategy, and partnership development. Operating Cadence Design and run the drums of the company - leadership meetings, goal-setting, and internal comms - to keep a fast-growing team aligned and moving. Founder Extension Represent the founding team in meetings, synthesizing information and moving decisions forward when founders are deep in product or client delivery. This includes investor‑facing communication - roadshows, updates, and high‑stakes capital conversations where you're the credible extension of the CEO. GTM & Growth Partner with the founding team to expand the sales pipeline, deepen client relationships, and build the commercial motion that scales beyond founder‑led selling. Client Delivery Help structure and scale engagement models as we grow from a handful of clients to many. You're accountable for delivery quality, not just coordination. Engineering Partnership You're one of the conduits between client feedback and engineering. You ensure what clients need is what the team builds - fidelity and speed matter here.
