Chief of Staff - Dallas

The Opportunity

This is not a traditional chief of staff role. At Human Agency, the chief of staff is the prototype for every person we hire. You're someone who wants to be running a company — a dynamic C-suite leader — but you're choosing to ride shotgun alongside an executive because you know it's the fastest path to getting there. What makes us different is that we actually give you that shot. Today. Not in three years. You are floor to ceiling. You will take out the trash, sweep the floors, and then walk into the board meeting and run it. Nothing is beneath you. There is no ceiling above you. You are a garbage disposal for problems — every food scrap, every random piece of metal gets thrown your way, and you figure out how to handle it without breaking.

What You'll Do

• Leading AI transformation projects with clients
• Leading fundraising efforts for funds or clients
• Managing investment funds
• Managing CEOs at client organizations
• Driving sales initiatives at Human Agency
• Prioritizing recruiting to help grow our team
• Serving as CEO of a venture studio company
• Managing client project delivery
• Driving value through data and analytics for clients
• Leading go-to-market initiatives for clients
• Own and solve ambiguous, high-stakes problems that don't fit neatly into any department
• Managing yourself entirely — no hand-holding, no coaching, no check-ins about how your day is going
• Deploying AI tools daily to amplify your output — you are not doing the work of one person, you are doing the work of five
• Identifying opportunities, inefficiencies, and threats before anyone asks you to

What We're Looking For

A fundamentally good human. Table stakes. Mission-driven operator with deep commitment to Human Agency's values and vision. No ego. No job description. You do whatever the job requires. Self-managing problem solver — the last thing a CEO or Founder wants is someone they have to manage. AI-first mindset — you use AI as a force multiplier across everything you touch. Builder mentality — you've shipped something. Attach proof of something you've built with AI to either your application or cover letter. Generalist with range — you don't need to be an expert in any one thing, but you need to be dangerous across many things.

Experience & Skills

• 5-7+ years in high-performing environments such as management consulting, venture capital/private equity, business development, or startup leadership positions
• Demonstrated success in taking ambiguous, complex initiatives and driving them to completion, you're the person who makes hard things happen
• Outstanding written and verbal communication; you can synthesize complex information into clear, actionable briefs for different audiences

Bonus

• Experience in high-growth startups, venture studios, or AI/tech companies

Considerations

• Education: Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience; top-tier programs and/or an advanced degree in a relevant field is a plus
• Ethics: Commitment to ethical practices and responsible business operations
• Travel: Occasional (10–25%) for company offsites, key events, and leadership meetings
• Location: Remote-friendly with preference for candidates in major tech hubs and strong preference for overlap with EST business hours
