Chief of Staff to the CEO

Position Overview

• Location Type: Remote
• Employment Type: Full-time
• Salary: Not specified

Mercury is building a complete financial stack for startups. Since we launched in 2019, our customer base has grown to over 200,000 startups and small businesses from all around the world. As Mercury continues to ship new products and deliver the best experiences for our customers, the lines of scaling a company become a bit blurrier—that’s where you come in.

As the Chief of Staff to the CEO, we’re looking for someone to make those lines clearer and to scale the CEO’s impact across the company; a strategic generalist who can quickly plug in across various teams and build relationships across the company to lead mission-critical, cross-functional efforts that adapt to meet the CEO’s highest business demands and drive company priorities forward.

Mercury is a financial technology company, not a bank. Banking services provided by Choice Financial Group, Column N.A., and Evolve Bank & Trust, Members FDIC.

Responsibilities

• Support the CEO in driving critical, high-impact projects across a variety of business initiatives.
• Serve as an integral thought partner to the Executive leadership team.
• Coordinate, communicate, and align resources for various business initiatives under the CEO’s remit.
• Maintain clear reporting to the CEO on initiative workstreams and progress, eliminating obstacles and reducing friction.
• Partner with Executive leadership, Finance, and HR/People teams to contribute to Mercury’s human capital efforts (capacity & workforce planning, organizational development, budgeting).
• Drive analysis and research to inform company strategy and support long-term decisions.
• Write and edit thoughtful, precise, and informative copy on behalf of the CEO (internal documents, external communication).
