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 :

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.
