Chief of Staff – Hedge Fund - $300-400k TC

A high performing, large AUM global Hedge Fund, are looking to hire a New York based ‘Chief of Staff’.

The role supports a variety of ‘C-suite’ level professionals, taking responsibilities away from them, supporting a broad remit. Tasks are wide ranging, covering topics such as internal & external public relations, managing the firm’s current premises / HQ, managing an international buildout with regards to new premises (managing strategic, financial and commercial considerations), handling advisory considerations with central banks & regulators, working with the Head of HR on a range of initiatives (for example hiring strategy + D&I), but also extending to the design, implementation and buildout of new internal controls / reporting / operational infrastructure. The work is predominately project based, requiring lots of research, analysis and the ability to present outcomes both internally and externally.

The hiring manager favours candidates with Ivy league academics or a degree with a high GPA, in a relevant topic, with 5yrs+ relevant experience. The ideal candidate will be a management consultant, that critically understands & has a strong interest in financial markets. Most likely this will be an individual currently working for a leading consultancy, who has a track record running multiple projects for banks. That said we could look at hedge fund candidates currently working as a project manager, in a strategy team or in a similar COO / business management function. Naturally, excellent communication and presentation skills are a pre-requisite.

The role is targeted to pay a $300-400k total comp package year-one, pending what level the role is hired at + individual performance, with significant year-on-year compensation growth expected.
