Role
Who you are
- 3 to 6 years at a top consulting firm, or a strong equivalent operating role
- A track record of using AI to do real work, with something real you've built using it
- Comfortable being the most junior person in a room full of senior client executives, and holding your own
- Comfortable working with account numbers and financials without hand-holding
- A bias toward finishing things independently: you can point to specific examples of taking a fuzzy ask all the way to done
- Range without ego: equally willing to do grunt work and senior-room work, not someone who only wants to do strategy
- You write and speak bottom-line-first, plain, no filler; comfortable delivering direct updates to co-CEOs without hedging or over-explaining
- You can use judgment under ambiguity: you can take a deliberately underspecified problem and scope a path forward without waiting to be told what to do
- Fast context absorption: picks up dense, fast-moving context quickly enough to support synchronous, real-time decision-making with the co-CEOs
What the job involves
- As Chief of Staff, you will work directly with our two co-CEOs, doing hands-on work and producing real output, not just tracking projects for other people. You will step in to run things directly when needed, take priorities off the CEOs' plates, and build a staffing and capacity model across our delivery teams
- This is a high-caliber operator role. It is not a senior or VP-level chief of staff position, and it is not a people manager role
- Take on deliberately underspecified problems from the co-CEOs and scope your own path to a resolution, rather than waiting to be told what to do
- Own fuzzy, ambiguous asks all the way through to done, without needing to be walked through them
- Build models, tools, and systems that other people at Correlation One come to rely on
- Use AI directly in your own work to move faster and produce better output, not just as a talking point
- Move fluidly between grunt work and senior-room work in the same week, from detailed analysis to sitting in a room full of senior client executives
- Write clearly and directly, bottom line first, in memos, briefs, and updates prepared for the co-CEOs
- Build and maintain a staffing and capacity model across delivery teams to support resourcing decisions
- Provide fast, synchronous context transfer to the co-CEOs, especially in your first two quarters in the role
Our take
The data science and AI sectors are experiencing rapid innovation, and this can make it difficult for businesses to future-proof their data engineering teams. Furthermore, scaling a data team also presents challenges as it can be difficult to find data scientist candidates that meet qualification and diversity standards.
Correlation One provides a recruitment platform for hiring, training and diversifying data scientist teams. It includes tools for targeted recruitment, assessing candidate data literacy, and identifying underrepresented staffing demographics. It also vets candidates for graduating leading courses, diversity programs, dataphones and competitions.
Whilst diversity-focused recruitment platforms will present competition for Correlation One, its unique all-in-one approach helps it stand out. The company claims that it can help its clients future-proof their teams against the rapid growth of data-driven AI, whilst empowering them to optimize staff quality, help underrepresented communities and meet diversity regulations.
