Chief of Staff

ABOUT FOUNDERS FUTURE Founders Future is a transatlantic venture and growth platform backed by leading European families and institutions. We back ambitious entrepreneurs reshaping industries across Europe and the United States, with a deep conviction in AI-native companies and technology-driven transformation. Our mission is threefold: empower exceptional founders, engineer the bridge between Europe and the U.S., and build enduring value at the intersection of capital, operational excellence, and strategic access. Our portfolio includes some of the most exciting companies being built today — from Perplexity and Databricks to Function Health and many more defining success stories across the U.S. and Europe. Operating across early-stage, growth, and co-investment vehicles, we are builders as much as we are investors. We put capital to work with conviction, move with founder-speed, and use AI not as a buzzword but as an operational edge — in how we source, decide, support, and scale. That distinction matters to us. It should matter to you too. THE ROLE We are looking for a Chief of Staff to work directly alongside the Founder — a strategic operator who can hold complexity, move fast, and deliver with institutional precision. Someone who makes the whole organization sharper, faster, and better aligned. You will be a force multiplier across strategy, fundraising, performance management, and AI-enabled operations. You will own high-stakes workstreams from inception to delivery, represent the Founder’s thinking when he is not in the room, and ensure that ambition translates into execution, every single week. This role is for someone who is done learning from the sidelines and ready to build. WHAT YOU WILL OWN Strategic Execution & Special Projects You will lead cross-functional initiatives across our funds, geographies, and portfolio — structuring problems, aligning stakeholders, and driving outcomes. You will prepare materials for LPs, boards, institutional partners, and co-investors. You will serve as a true sparring partner to the Founder on capital allocation, organizational decisions, and platform strategy — offering structured thinking, honest pushback, and rigorous follow-through. Fund Go-to-Market & Investor Strategy You will support the design and execution of fundraising strategy across our venture and growth vehicles. This means structuring positioning and messaging, building compelling investor materials, analyzing competitive dynamics, and coordinating outreach with Investor Relations. You will understand what LPs want before they ask — and architect the narrative accordingly. Data, Performance & AI Enablement You will own the fund’s performance intelligence layer: KPI dashboards, portfolio reporting, and internal data architecture. More importantly, you will drive the integration of AI tools and automated workflows across the organization, replacing manual processes with intelligent systems, and elevating the quality and speed of every decision we make. A strong command of AI tools, LLMs, and applied automation is not a nice-to-have here. It is foundational to how we expect this role to operate. We want someone who actively uses AI to think faster, structure better, and execute smarter — and who brings that culture to the entire team. Communication & Executive Leverage You will draft LP letters, strategic memos, key communications, and high-visibility content on behalf of the Founder. You will ensure that Founders Future speaks with a single, consistent voice , whether addressing institutional investors in Paris, tech founders in SF, or partners in New York. You will coordinate fluidly across our U.S. and European teams, bridging time zones and cultural contexts without friction. WHO YOU ARE You have 3 to 7 years of experience in strategy consulting, venture capital, private equity, or a high-performance corporate strategy environment, ideally with US/EU exposure. You understand fund structures, capital stacks, and the mechanics of venture financing. You are fluent in the language of institutional investors and know how to earn their trust. You are deeply embedded in the technology and AI ecosystem, not as a passive observer, but as an active practitioner. You build with AI. You automate intelligently. You know the difference between using ChatGPT for a summary and rebuilding a workflow from the ground up with Claude. You write with precision and authority. You think in frameworks but communicate in narratives. You are discreet, structured, and extraordinarily high-ownership. You do not wait to be told what matters, you already know. Above all, you are someone who wants to operate at the center of capital, technology, and global strategy, and who is ready to play a decisive role in building one of Europe’s most ambitious investment platforms from its American base. WHAT THIS OFFERS YOU Direct access to fund strategy and capital deployment decisions at the highest level. A front-row seat and an active role, in building a transatlantic investment platform. An AI-first, intellectually rigorous environment where your judgment is trusted and your impact is visible. And a growth trajectory shaped not by title progression, but by the scope of what you are capable of building. #J-18808-Ljbffr
