Chief of Staff, One Health Studio

Alloy Partners Operational Role

Alloy Partners is a venture builder that co-creates advantaged startups and venture studios with large corporations. Founded in 2020, our team helped pioneer the venture studio model and has since co-created 50+ companies, built 8+ studios, and grown a portfolio of 40+ companies. Our mission is to co-create and scale advantaged companies with corporations and entrepreneurs. We are bold, we take action, and we win together.

This role is hired by Alloy and dedicated to One Health Studio.

One Health Studio is Alloy's AI-native venture studio focused on human, animal, and planetary health. We co-create companies at the intersection of corporate innovation, early-stage startups, and applied AI. The portfolio spans animal diagnostics, genomics, infectious disease detection, robotics, computer vision, and health infrastructure. We're a small, high-judgment team that moves fast — founder-caliber EIRs, sophisticated corporate partners, and investors who expect results.

You are the operational engine of One Health Studio. Working shoulder-to-shoulder with the Managing Director, you keep the studio and its growing portfolio running — hands on the details, not hovering above them. You own the connective tissue across every concept and company: tracking deliverables, keeping EIRs accountable, managing partner and investor logistics, and making sure nothing slips.

This is an execution-first role for a specialized generalist — someone who translates strategy into action and keeps the train on the tracks. You'll live in the systems, the trackers, the follow-ups, and the day-to-day that keeps a studio moving. You'll shape how the work gets done, not just do it, measuring yourself by the actual outcomes. We move in tight loops, and you close them.

Because the role sits inside Alloy, you won't operate alone. You'll draw on Alloy's centralized resources — Legal, Finance, HR, Marketing, Talent, and Operations — the same way every Alloy studio does, and you'll pull in the broader Alloy team, AI agents, and outside contractors to cover the full stack of work. One person owns the whole, and marshals the resources to get it done.

• Studio operations:
  Keep a real-time view of progress across every concept and portfolio company — milestones, blockers, EIR status, key vendor and partner relationships. Maintain the data and the trackers yourself, and coordinate the cross-functional lift with Alloy's shared services (Operations, Legal, Finance, Marketing, HR, Talent).
• Portfolio support during incubation:
  Help One Health portfolio companies get up and running — systems onboarding, research projects, and connecting founders to the right resources across Alloy and our contractor network. Track portfolio metrics on a per-company basis. This is operational support, not founder coaching.
• Founder and EIR support:
  Be the day-to-day operational point of contact for EIRs. Help them navigate Alloy resources, coordinate introductions, and clear operational friction so they can build.
• External relationships:
  Manage follow-up with corporate partners, investors, academic institutions, and service providers (CDMOs, legal, IP).
• Contracts and agreements:
  Track MOUs, EIR agreements, option agreements, and licensing deals across the portfolio. Flag expiration dates and key milestones in coordination with Legal and Finance.
• Investor and partner communications:
  Draft updates, coordinate diligence requests, and prepare materials for key meetings.
• Systems and execution:
  Build and run the systems that keep the studio moving — onboarding playbooks, reporting templates, partner communication cadences. Improve the playbooks that already work across Alloy, stand up new ones where there's a gap, and use AI tooling to do the work of a larger team.
• Whatever it takes:
  Own the high-priority one-offs as they land — research reports, competitive landscapes, regulatory filing coordination, grant applications. If it needs doing and no one else has it, it's yours.
