About STEPS Talent

STEPS Talent is a high-performance hiring and intelligence firm helping growth-stage and enterprise companies scale with precision. As we transition from a services-only model into a product-driven platform company, maintaining founder leverage and operational clarity is mission-critical. We operate at speed—with rhythm, intention, and structure. This role is central to sustaining that momentum.

Role Overview :

  • This is a high-trust, execution-focused role supporting the Founder directly.
  • You will act as a central integrator—managing tasks, tracking deliverables, maintaining visibility across sales, operations, and internal initiatives, and ensuring the founder’s energy stays focused on high-leverage outcomes.
  • You’ll be the filter between the founder and operational noise. You’ll surface the right information at the right time, ensure follow-through, and create systems for daily accountability.
  • This role is for someone who brings structure to chaos, communicates with clarity, and thrives in a founder-led environment.

Responsibilities :

Founder Execution Support

  • Manage daily and weekly task trackers, meeting prep, and follow-ups
  • Coordinate calendar flow, protect focus blocks, and preempt conflicts
  • Prioritize founder action items across internal and external commitments
  • Sales & CRM Flow

  • Maintain Close CRM data : leads, deals, stages, and hygiene
  • Track sales and outreach activity, surfacing gaps or follow-ups
  • Support outbound coordination and light-touch lead tracking
  • Operational Coordination

  • Maintain a centralized tracking spreadsheet of key accounts, warm allies, referrals, and opportunities
  • Coordinate meetings across stakeholders and ensure updates are captured
  • Manage communications cadence and internal check-ins
  • Product, Project & Reporting Visibility

  • Follow up on key deliverables across product, GTM, internal ops, and financial tracking
  • Monitor open loops, missed updates, and status changes
  • Elevate risks, blockers, or delays with clear, proactive communication
  • Track alignment between founder directives and actual execution timelines
  • LinkedIn & External Support

  • Support content flow and outreach via LinkedIn (optional, based on experience)
  • Track responses, warm intros, and engagement with prospective contacts
  • Draft or coordinate light communications on behalf of the founder
  • Tools & Skills Required

  • Microsoft 365 : Excel (advanced), Outlook, Teams, Word
  • Close CRM (or willingness to learn quickly)
  • Notion (task tracking, light dashboards)
  • Strong written and verbal English communication
  • High follow-through, discretion, and organizational integrity
  • Ideal Candidate

  • Based in India and available during full US hours
  • 3+ years supporting founders or senior operators
  • Structured, fast-moving, and clear in both planning and communication
  • Comfortable tracking multiple projects and surfacing what matters
  • Tech-fluent and able to work independently without micro-management
  • Bonus : experience with sales ops, product ops, recruiting, or reporting functions
  • Why This Role Matters

  • The right hire will keep the founder focused on leverage, clients, and leadership.
  • You will remove friction, close loops, and ensure the business runs with rhythm and clarity.
  • You won’t just track tasks—you’ll help drive momentum.
  • To Apply

    This role requires initiative, consistency, and execution—not just experience.
