About the Company
RNGD is a rapidly scaling organization emerging as a nationally recognized leader in construction through our unique Renegade mindset focused on innovation, creativity, and culture. The team is made up of a highly engaged group of seasoned professionals and emerging leaders. We are creators who believe that what we build drives the growth of our cities and that to fulfill our mission, we must constantly challenge the old way of doing things.
Headquartered in New Orleans, Louisiana, we thrive on building communities, building teams, building leaders, and growing the business throughout the Southeast region with additional offices in Mississippi, Tennessee, and Alabama. RNGD is a fast-growing, purpose-built construction enterprise on a path from roughly $500M toward a $1B goal. We were founded on a renegade belief — that a great company should not be owned or run by one person — and we are building a leadership engine that outlasts its founder.
This is a rare seat at the center of that work.
We’re looking for an Executive Business Partner to the Founder/CEO. This role exists to increase CEO leverage, not CEO dependency.
The Executive Business Partner (EBP) is the CEO's right-hand — not a scheduler. You are one of two roles in the Office of the CEO, and your single job is to multiply the CEO's personal leverage: protect and orchestrate his time, and steward the relationships that today live in his head. You directly attack the two most mechanical constraints on a founder-led company — the calendar and relationship concentration — so the CEO can lead solely as CEO.
This is a high-trust, high-discretion role with a direct line to the Founder & CEO and exposure to the full executive team and the company's most important external partners. It is also a high-intensity seat that demands long hours and the personal capacity to keep pace with a relentless, fast-moving founder-CEO.
This role exists to increase CEO leverage, not CEO dependency. The EBP must quickly learn how the CEO thinks, prioritizes, communicates, and makes decisions so they can protect his time, prepare him well, close loops, and manage the relationship systems that enable RNGD to scale beyond founder dependency.
Core Responsibilities- CEO Calendar and Inbox Leverage
- Protect and orchestrate the CEO's calendar and inbox.
- Run an enforced “calendar gate” that moves the founder's hours into the work only a CEO can do — vision, capital, culture, top relationships, and governance.
- Strategic and External Engagement Preparation and Follow-Through
- Prepare briefs before important CEO meetings, including context, relationship history, objectives, open items, talking points, and likely next steps.
- Ensure the CEO enters strategic and external engagements with the right information, priorities, and context.
- Capture actions, decisions, commitments, follow-up items, and relationship notes after meetings. Make every meeting land and every commitment get followed through.
- CEO Top-Relationship Pipeline Stewardship
- Turn the marquee client, capital, and recruiting relationships that live in the founder's head into a shared, documented system that can be paired to successors and transferred over time.
- Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Management, Finance, Communications, Organizational Leadership, or related field preferred.
- MBA or equivalent business experience strongly preferred.
- Five or more years of experience supporting senior executives, founders, CEOs, investors, entrepreneurs, or high-growth business leaders preferred.
- Experience in executive operations, strategic support, business operations, professional services, construction, real estate, private equity, consulting, or entrepreneurial environments preferred.
- Strong business acumen with the ability to understand company priorities, client relationships, capital relationships, governance needs, and strategic business discussions.
- Exceptional organizational skills with the ability to manage high volume, competing priorities, shifting schedules, confidential information, and time-sensitive commitments.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills…
