Chief of Staff - #1696920

We Help Companies Get Compensation Right.

What we get paid at work has a massive impact on our lives, and it’s one of the biggest factors in hiring and retaining talent - and yet so many companies struggle to get it right. They simply have no choice but to rely on poor data and unsophisticated tools for their pay decisions. That’s why we created Ravio.

We help many of the world’s most innovative and ambitious companies build stronger teams and reach their goals through better compensation. Our real-time data platform brings compensation into the modern age with clarity and transparency. We’re passionate about ensuring everyone is paid what they deserve, no matter their background or circumstances. We believe that when compensation is done right, everyone wins.

Ravio is growing fast, which means you can too. We’ve established ourselves as the European leader in our space serving more than 1,200 clients, and now have our sights set on becoming the global go to place for compensation data and tools for managing compensation.

Joining a startup and scaling it into a global product is one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences a career can offer. If that sounds exciting to you, you’re in the right place.

The Role

We’re looking for a stellar Chief of Staff to support our founders. Naturally adaptable, you’ll be excited at the idea of working across a whole host of projects. From company-wide OKR planning, to supporting fundraising, to setting up the bare bones of our finance department and content planning our offsites - no job is too small to deliver to an exceptional standard.

A culture carrier, you’ll enjoy building relationships with different stakeholders while also being comfortable pushing back when necessary. For a generalist looking for a meaty new role, you’ll have the chance to really make your mark on all things to do with internal operations.

Why this role will be for you:

• You’re excited to work directly with Founders
• You’re naturally intellectually curious and have backbone - we’re looking for someone who is a critical thinker and enjoys challenging people on their own thinking
• You’re a structured, analytical thinker who enjoys thinking in detail about problems
• You have excellent communication skills, both verbal and written. You’re happy being the glue that holds the organisation together, and take pride in a job well done.
• You have gravitas and are easily able to influence internally and externally. Eventually, you’ll feel comfortable and confident representing the founders to the Board.
  
  

Why this role might not work for you

• You struggle with ambiguity, context-switching and juggling multiple projects at the same time.The broad nature of this role means that there may at times be changes in priorities
• You are someone who gains comfort from having a clear progression path in the organisation. This feels restrictive to you. This role is an unparalleled one for future opportunity but its nature means that it may well lead to different paths. The number of possibilities open to you excites you.
• You have a big ego - we value humility and an easygoing attitude
  
  

What you’ll get:

• You’ll work directly with the founders - this role is a perfect initiation for someone hoping to start their own company one day
• The opportunity to be part of the early team of a category-defining company backed by a strong roster of world-class investors
• An inclusive work environment characterised by a high degree of trust, respect and integrity
• The ability to work closely with and learn from the company’s founders as well as a highly ambitious team of smart, mission-driven individuals
• A high degree of autonomy and the opportunity for fast-tracked professional growth
• While we’re very focused at work, we also know how to have fun in the process and don’t take ourselves too seriously
• Competitive compensation (and we know what we’re talking about!) with significant upside potential for high performance. And company equity, of course.
• An amazing benefits package for everyone, regardless of their role or level, including generous paid time off allowances as well as enhanced parental leave benefits
