Job description

Mission

Maximize the CEO’s impact and turn strategy into concrete execution and measurable results.

You are the CEO’s right-hand person: you increase their leverage, structure decision-making, and ensure that strategic priorities are translated into clear, tracked, and executed actions.

Responsibilities

Maximizing the CEO’s leverage

  • Prepare the CEO’s key meetings (objectives, context, expected decisions).

  • Structure, prepare, and ensure follow-up for executive committee meetings, board meetings, and all-hands.

  • Reduce distractions and back-and-forth to improve the quality of strategic decisions.

  • Represent the CEO in certain meetings and carry their vision in their absence.

Structuring and steering strategy

  • Help formalize the long-term vision with the founders.

  • Prepare strategic materials (executive committee, board, presentations).

  • Clarify options, trade-offs, and impacts on structuring topics.

  • Act as a sparring partner to the CEO on key decisions.

Translating strategy into execution

  • Turn strategic priorities into concrete roadmaps and action plans.

  • Implement and run an OKR / KPI framework.

  • Ensure executive committee decisions are followed by actions and executed on time.

  • Align tech, business, and operations teams around priorities.

Alignment and governance

  • Structure governance rituals (executive committee, key forums).

  • Track decisions and trade-offs, and address misalignments or tensions.

  • Ensure smooth and consistent information flow across the organization.

Targeted operational interventions

  • Temporarily take ownership of critical or poorly managed business or operations topics.

  • Run rapid diagnostics (consulting-style) on urgent situations.

  • Clarify issues, build an executable action plan, and hand ownership back to teams.

Communication and culture

  • Structure and roll out the internal communication roadmap.

  • Organize key leadership moments (extended executive committees, offsites).

  • Strengthen the founders’ internal and external credibility.

  • Actively contribute to the animation of Vizzia’s culture.

Your profile

  • Strong experience in Chief of Staff, strategy, consulting, or a senior cross-functional role.

  • Excellent strategic vision with a strong ability to move quickly into execution.

  • Very strong project management, coordination, and PMO skills.

  • Comfortable with data, KPIs, and performance management frameworks.

  • Ability to solve complex problems quickly and in a structured way.

  • Leadership, assertiveness, and managerial courage.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication.

  • Strong sense of confidentiality.

  • High adaptability and stamina.

  • Strong personal fit with the CEO and co-founders.
