Job description

We are looking for a Chief of Staff. You’ll be the CEO’s right hand, truly owning all high-friction operations that slow the company down. You’ll be a key operator at the heart of the company, handling all the essential but time-consuming tasks that keep a growing startup running smoothly. From admin and HR to coordination and process improvement, your work will unlock time and focus for the entire team — helping product, technical, clinical and business functions move faster and more efficiently. You’ll bring structure where there’s chaos and momentum where things get stuck.

What You’ll Do

  • Establishing and improving internal processes, avoiding bottlenecks,

  • Owning general administration,

  • Drafting and proofreading documents (contracts, reports, presentations)

  • Supporting HR: contracts, onboarding, payroll, insurance, etc.

  • Handling accounting follow-up and coordination with our accountant

  • Coordinating internal team requests

  • Managing agenda, inbox, priorities, travel planning

  • Following up on to-dos, reminders, deadlines

What We Offer

  • A key role in an innovative DeepTech start-up with a strong mission,

  • Competitive market salary,

  • Nice office in the center of the city of Lyon,

  • A dynamic and collaborative team in a fast-growing environment.


Preferred experience

We are looking for the following qualifications but do not worry if you don’t match all of them:

  • Master degree in Business/Marketing/Communications or a related discipline.

  • Problem solver

  • Exceptionally organized, proactive and reliable

  • Previous experience in a startup or fast-paced tech environment

  • 2-3 years of experience in a similar role (Executive Assistant, Operations Manager, Chief of Staff, etc.)

  • You enjoy working behind the scenes, solving problems quietly and fast

  • Professional in French and English (written & spoken)

  • “This cannot work” is a sentence you use very carefully


Recruitment process

  • A first interview with our founder and CEO

    • Get-to-know and discussion about experience, motivation and interests
  • A second interview with our CTO and CMO.

    • Get-to-know and discussion about experience, motivation and interests
