Chief of Staff - Guideline : Job Details

Guideline is looking for a Chief of Staff, reporting directly to the CEO & Founder. This is an in-person role based in our Burlingame, CA office, with regular travel.

Chief of Staff is a rare role that can make an impact in all corners of the business. Think of this role as the CEO's right hand and the Executive Team multiplier, where you move the business forward through sound business decisions.

The ideal candidate is proactive, independent, resourceful, and with excellent judgment. They don't need the CEO to tell them what to do on a regular basis – instead, they bring opportunities up and take things on. A “doer” with a “no task is too small” approach to getting things done.

What We're Looking For

Able to build trust across the organization and influence stakeholders

Intellectually curious, willing to dive deep and learn new things, strong analytical skills

Resourceful, proven ability to manage multiple priorities in parallel and make sure things don't slip thru the cracks

Ambitious - you want to be a Founder, CEO, or COO one day and are looking for the quickest way to get experience

Fast-paced - you move fast and make things happen

Excellent judgment - you know how to spend your limited time and have a high level of integrity with sensitive information
