Hi there,

Here’s something we keep seeing again and again: the people who actually run companies rarely have “CEO” in their title.

They’re Chiefs of Staff. Operators. The ones who turn strategy into systems, align teams when things get messy, and make sure the plan actually happens.

In our latest podcast, Sarah Kislak shares her journey from Executive Assistant → Chief of Staff at Box → Product Manager, and what it really takes to move between those seats. Sarah shares why operators who learn how to build leverage end up shaping the company.

This week’s roles reflect that shift — from Chief of Staff at AMD helping steer global engineering, to strategy and operations leadership at Adobe, Brooklinen, and ADP, plus product, revenue, and people operators across fast-growing teams.

Scroll down to explore the latest set of openings or dive straight into the job board to find your next role.
