Description

Chief of Staff - Fast-Growing UK Business

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who loves being close to the heart of a business.

We're looking for a Chief of Staff to work alongside the senior leadership team, helping turn strategy into action and making sure the business is focused, aligned and moving forward at pace. It's a role with real influence, visibility and variety, perfect for someone who enjoys connecting the dots and making things happen.

The role

This is a broad, trusted partner role. You'll act as a right hand to leadership, supporting priorities across strategy, operations, people and delivery. You'll help bring clarity, structure and momentum, making sure ideas don't just stay ideas.

No two days will look the same. One day you might be preparing leadership materials or driving key initiatives forward, the next you'll be unblocking challenges, coordinating across teams or helping shape how the business scales.

What you'll be doing

* Acting as a strategic partner to senior leaders, helping translate vision into clear plans and action
* Supporting the delivery of key business initiatives and cross-functional projects
* Creating structure, rhythm and accountability across leadership priorities
* Preparing board and leadership materials, papers and insights
* Acting as a connector between teams, ensuring communication flows clearly and effectively
* Helping spot risks, challenges and opportunities early and bringing solutions to the table
* Supporting organisational planning, ways of working and continuous improvement
* Being a trusted sounding board, able to challenge and support in equal measure

What we're looking for

We're looking for someone highly organised, commercially minded and comfortable operating at pace. You'll be confident working with senior stakeholders and able to balance strategic thinking with hands-on delivery.

Ideally, you'll bring:

* Experience in a Chief of Staff, Strategy, Operations, Consulting, People or similar role
* Strong project management and prioritisation skills
* Confidence influencing at senior level and working with ambiguity
* Excellent communication skills, written and verbal
* A proactive, solutions-focused mindset
* The ability to zoom out strategically, but also roll your sleeves up when needed
* A genuine interest in how businesses grow and how people work best together

Why join us

* A fast-growing, values-led business with ambitious plans
* A highly visible role with real influence and exposure
* The chance to work closely with senior leadership and shape how the business operates
* Hybrid working and flexibility
* Ongoing development and progression as the business grows
* A competitive package including bonus, benefits and wellbeing support

This role would suit someone who enjoys being at the centre of things, bringing clarity to complexity and helping a business do its best work.
