Chief of Staff

The client is seeking a commercially astute and ambitious Chief of Staff to work closely with the Managing Director and support the organization through its next phase of development and growth. This role involves evaluating opportunities, coordinating strategic priorities, and ensuring that decisions are effectively implemented.

The successful candidate will demonstrate the ability to influence senior colleagues, offer constructive challenge, and drive delivery, while showing curiosity and ambition to develop broader commercial and operational leadership experience.
