About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Own the executive team's operating rhythm ****— agendas, pre-reads, making sure decisions get made rather than deferred, and following up on the things people committed to but haven't done yet
Be the connective tissue across functions — when something falls between two teams, or a decision needs more than one ELT member in the room, you'll see it and do something about it; whether that's facilitating the conversation, flagging it up, or owning it yourself
Help our co-CEOs get the most out of their time — making sure they're well-prepared for the meetings that matter, protecting their focus during high-demand periods, and handling the things that don't need to reach them at all
Allow information to flow better across the organisation — translating what's happening at the exec level into clear, consistent messages, and making sure they actually reach the people who need to hear them
Form and lead the ELT+ group — our extended leadership layer that sits just below the executive team — setting the rhythm, keeping information flowing across it, and helping it become a genuinely useful part of how Amber runs
Pick up whatever needs a trusted owner — new initiatives, time-sensitive projects, things that don't fit neatly anywhere else

Requirements

What you’ll need

You've spent time (4+ years) in a fast-moving and high-pressure environment — ideally in a Chief of Staff role (1-2 years), or in strategy or business operations, where you were genuinely part of the leadership team, not just adjacent to it
Perhaps you’ve worked in an industry such as start-ups, tech, VCs, consulting, investment banking, etc.
You may have a strong academic background - one that has set you up with the foundational knowledge you need to speak organisational language.
You've seen a company scale — you understand what breaks when an organisation grows quickly, and you've got instincts for how to fix it before it becomes a problem
You're a strong communicator. You write clearly, speak plainly, and know when to say less. You can hold your own in a room full of experienced people without needing to be the loudest voice in it
You're comfortable with ambiguity — this role doesn't come with a fixed set of deliverables and the scope will evolve. Some weeks you'll have a clear agenda; other weeks you'll be making it up as you go, and that should feel energising, not stressful
You're a low-ego operator. You'll have a lot of context and access, but the role works best when you're focused on the team winning rather than being seen to win
You've got enough commercial and financial literacy to engage credibly on business decisions — you don't need to be a CFO, but you should be able to read a board pack and ask the right questions
