Hi there,

24 operator roles this week, from a mission-driven nonprofit COO to a $390K seat at McMaster-Carr, with Chief of Staff openings in Madrid and Amsterdam. The operator market isn't one market.

Here's this week's top Operator jobs.

✏️ New: How to identify a good Chief of Staff role

Before you apply to anything below, read this. The framework every operator should know for spotting a career-defining CoS seat, and avoiding a title-only one.

Architect the growth strategy for a mission-driven nonprofit advancing science for humans and animals. Lead operational scale-up, structure teams, and drive impact as the organization grows.

💰 Not listed  |  📍 Chicago, IL (occasional onsite)

Level up: Chief of Staff Launchpad (now upgraded)

Master the CoS role in one intensive week. Launchpad is our cohort-based certification: on-demand lessons plus live, expert-led workshops on the CoS operating system, strategic execution, influence, and AI-driven leverage. You walk away with frameworks and templates you can put to work the next morning. Not theory. Tools you'll use.

Pick your track:

  • Cohort ($2,450): on-demand modules, the full template library, two live workshop days, group office hours, a capstone, a digital certificate, and private cohort + Exchange access.

  • Cohort + Coaching ($3,950): everything in Cohort, plus three 1:1 coaching sessions, a job-search and leveling lab, and priority PRO membership.
