Requirements
7 to 12 years of experience, ideally combining a rigorous analytical foundation (management consulting, investment banking, strategy) with operating experience in a high-growth company; prior Chief of Staff, business operations leadership, or GM experience strongly preferred.
Executive presence and influence: you can hold your own with, and when necessary push back on, experienced VPs and C-level leaders.
Strong analytical instincts: comfortable pulling metrics, spotting trends, and translating data into operational decisions.
AI-native mindset: you're already using AI tools to multiply your own output and you're excited to push further.
Experience in fintech, payments, B2B SaaS, or financial services preferred.

Responsibilities
The Chief of Staff is the CEO's most trusted operating partner.
In a given month you might drive the leadership team's operating cadence, pressure-test an executive's plan on the CEO's behalf, prepare and help run a board meeting, own a company-critical special project end to end, or step into a stalled cross-functional effort and get it moving again.
This role suits an experienced operator who has already provided leverage to senior executives and now wants a true seat at the table at a fast-growing fintech.
For the right person, it is a launchpad into an executive leadership role at Coast.
About the Company
Own the leadership team's operating cadence: executive meetings, planning cycles, goal setting, and business reviews, ensuring each produces decisions and follow-through rather than discussion.
Drive meeting preparation so the CEO walks in with the right context, agendas, and materials, and attendees leave aligned on outcomes.
Track decisions and commitments across the executive team and project-manage them through to resolution so nothing falls through the cracks.
