Chief of Staff

We are currently supporting a fast-scaling international retail and lifestyle business in the search for a Chief of Staff to work directly alongside the CEO across Dubai, Europe and wider global operations. This is not a traditional support role. The business is looking for a commercially sharp, highly organised, and strategically minded operator who can genuinely act as a force multiplier to the CEO helping translate vision into execution whilst driving alignment, accountability, and performance across the organisation globally. Sitting at the centre of the business, the successful individual will partner closely with leadership teams across ecommerce, retail, operations, product, marketing, finance, and international expansion.

The role will involve:

  • Driving strategic business initiatives and execution
  • Supporting international growth across Dubai & UK / Europe / US
  • Leading cross-functional projects and operational improvements
  • Ensuring accountability and delivery across leadership teams
  • Supporting business scaling, structure, and organisational efficiency
  • Acting as a key connector between teams, priorities, and geographies
  • Helping the CEO remain focused on high-value strategic decision making

 

The environment is ambitious, fast-paced, founder-led, and constantly evolving, so the role requires someone who thrives in high-growth businesses and is comfortable operating across both strategic thinking and detailed execution.

 

We are particularly interested in speaking with candidates who have experience within:

  • Chief of Staff positions
  • Strategy & Operations leadership roles
  • Founder’s Associate / Executive Office roles
  • Consulting backgrounds
  • Senior Executive Business Partner or high-level EA positions
  • Fast-paced fashion, ecommerce, retail, luxury, or consumer-led brands

 

The ideal individual will be:

  • Commercially minded with strong business acumen
  • Comfortable operating closely with senior leadership and founders
  • Experienced managing cross-functional priorities and stakeholders
  • Able to bring structure, clarity, and accountability into fast-moving environments
  • Confident balancing strategic thinking with hands-on execution
  • Naturally proactive, highly organised, and solutions-focused
  • Comfortable influencing, challenging, and aligning senior stakeholders

 

International travel across UK / US required

 

This is a genuinely unique opportunity to operate at executive level within a globally scaling brand and play a direct role in shaping the future growth of the business.
