About the Role

We are seeking a high-capacity, strategic Chief of Staff to partner directly with the Founder of a late-stage Fintech startup during a critical period of scale. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in fast-paced, high-growth environments and can operate as a true force-multiplier—bridging vision and execution, improving operational clarity, and driving cross-functional alignment across a complex, regulated domain like fintech.

Responsibilities

Strategic Execution & Planning

  • Convert the Founder’s fintech vision into structured operating plans, OKRs, and measurable outcomes.

  • Identify gaps, risks, and opportunities across the organization and recommend data-backed solutions.
  • Lead quarterly and annual planning cycles and ensure cross-functional alignment.

Founder Leverage

  • Serve as a strategic thought partner—bringing clarity, structure, and insight to Founder priorities.
  • Prepare briefs, insights, and recommendations for board, investor, regulatory, and leadership meetings.
  • Represent the Founder in internal and external forums when needed.
  • Manage the flow of communication to ensure effective decision-making and follow-through.
  • Cross-Functional Coordination

  • Facilitate collaboration across product, engineering, compliance, credit, finance, and GTM teams.
  • Own and optimize key operating cadences : leadership syncs, business reviews, and all-hands.
  • Ensure fintech-specific priorities (risk, compliance, regulatory requirements, fraud, payments operations) are aligned across teams.
  • Special Projects & Strategic Initiatives

  • Lead high-impact cross-functional projects such as :
  • New fintech product launches
  • Regulatory readiness initiatives
  • Credit, risk, and fraud optimization
  • Strategic partnerships with banks, NBFCs, networks, or ecosystem players
  • Conduct research, analysis, and due diligence to support strategic decisions.
  • Build new processes, systems, or internal structures to support scale and compliance.
  • Board, Investor & External Stakeholder Management

  • Own preparation for board meetings—fintech KPIs, unit economics, risk metrics, and growth narrative.
  • Support investor reporting, fundraising materials, and strategic partnerships.
  • Coordinate select engagements with financial institutions, auditors, regulators, or partners.
  • Qualifications

  • 5–8 years of experience in one of the following :
  • Top-tier consulting (MBB)
  • Venture Capital (with fintech exposure preferred)
  • High-growth startup operator roles (strategy, bizops, product, risk, or special projects—fintech experience a plus)
  • Strong strategic thinking with the ability to operate in both high-level vision and granular detail.
  • Exceptional communication—clear, structured, and executive-ready.
  • Proven ability to lead complex, cross-functional initiatives without formal authority.
  • Comfort working in a regulated, data-driven, fast-moving fintech environment.
  • High EQ, strong stakeholder management, and ability to handle confidential information.
