Chief of Staff
Job Summary
What we are building at Sitemark
Sitemark is the AI and robotics platform for building and operating renewable energy. The worlds leading Owners EPCs and O&M companies use Sitemark to build and operate their sites faster.
What problem are we solving and why is this important to solve
The world is building one of the largest infrastructure shifts in history and it needs better tools to get it done. Renewable energy projects are growing in scale complexity and urgency but the teams responsible for building and operating them are stretched thin buried in repetitive work disconnected systems and running out of time. Thats why we built Sitemark: AI and robotics take the repetitive load off these teams from the field to the office so their time goes to what matters and sites get built faster and perform better.
The team youll join
You will join an extremely talented team of incredibly passionate high-energy people. We go the extra mile while having the best time of our lives.
How we operate
- We care deeply about our customers and the problems we solve for them.
- We move fast keep things simple and focus on what matters.
- We keep our quality bar high by staying lean and hiring only the best.
As Chief of Staff you are the leadership teams force multiplier the person who takes the hardest highest-stakes problems off their plate and drives them to done. Sitemark is a fast-growing scale-up going global: were going from 60 to 200 people over the next two to three years and how well we navigate that depends on getting a lot of hard things right at once. Youll work directly with the leadership team founders included and get your hands into projects across the entire company. The scope is deliberately almost unusually broad strategy operations people processes international expansion pricing wherever the most important problem of the moment lives. This is a launchpad role: youll learn more in 18 months here than in five years almost anywhere else and its built to grow into a leadership seat as the company scales.
What youll do
- Own end-to-end the high-value cross-departmental projects the leadership team cares about most from messy problem to shipped any given quarter that might mean standing up a new entity in a new country running a pricing project or fixing an HR or org problem.
- Build the operational backbone of a company tripling in size: spot whats starting to break as we grow and put in the systems and ways of working that fix it so we scale fast without scaling headcount or losing our quality bar.
- Keep the company on track: help run planning set and track the goals and KPIs that matter and pull together the analysis behind leadership meetings all-hands and board updates.
- Act as a trusted advisor and sounding board to the leadership team pressure-testing decisions surfacing what theyre missing and turning ambiguity into a clear plan.
- Drive alignment across teams: connect leaderships priorities to what each department is actually doing kill low-value work and unblock the projects that matter.
- Go deep fast on unfamiliar problems why a key metric is dropping whether to build or buy a new tool how to fix a process thats breaking as we grow build the analysis bring a recommendation and implement the solution.
- Step in wherever the gaps are. The brief changes constantly and you fill whatever role the moment needs.
What success looks like after 612 months:
- You understand how every department works inside out
- The leadership team routes its hardest cross-functional problems to you by default and trusts your judgment on them.
- Several major initiatives a new country entity a pricing overhaul a key hire or org change have shipped because you drove them.
- Systems and processes youve put in place are holding as the company grows and recurring bottlenecks youve removed dont come back.
- Youve earned a clear path toward a leadership role.
- 35 years in management consulting investment banking a high-growth startup or a similarly demanding environment where you owned hard problems end-to-end.
- A track record of structuring ambiguous problems and driving them to a result without a playbook or a team handed to you.
- Exceptional communication you can write a crisp memo run a leadership meeting and hold your own with the leadership team and founders.
- Comfort operating across finance ops people and strategy without being a deep specialist in any one of them.
- Genuinely high standards and high ownership youd rather do it excellently and lean than adequately and bloated.
- This is not a nine-to-five. Its hard its tough problems and itll push you well outside your comfort zone repeatedly. You should want that.
- We work primarily onsite from Leuven office and value in-person collaboration. This role requires being in the office at least 2 days per week.
- Nice to have: exposure to international expansion and scaling operations at a high-growth company past 50 people.
- A rare chance to work directly with leadership and founders of a fast-scaling company
