Partner

Role Summary : COO / Partner

Adara is building its next-generation leadership team. We’re seeking a Partner / Chief Operating Officer (COO) who will take end-to-end ownership of multiple client and venture projects, drive business development, and strengthen our venture-building operations.

This is a builder’s role , not a managerial one. You will work directly with the founding partners to lead delivery , drive execution , and scale the consulting-plus-venture-building model across sectors. Over time, this role may transition into equity shareholding or partnership within Adara Partners, based on performance and contribution.

You’ll help shape a firm that combines strategic depth with startup agility —a place where you can both advise and build.

Responsibilities

• Take full ownership of assigned projects—from scoping to delivery and outcomes.
• Translate strategic recommendations into operational roadmaps and measurable execution.
• Drive cross-functional coordination between Adara, clients, and external collaborators.
• Lead and mentor project teams; ensure quality, speed, and accountability.
• Support business development —prepare proposals, lead client discussions, and strengthen key relationships.
• Co-lead venture-building initiatives with Adara partners; identify and develop new opportunities in the ecosystem.
• Oversee internal process excellence, knowledge management, and delivery frameworks.
• Participate in firm-level leadership discussions and contribute to growth strategy.
