So word of warning on COS roles - they range from glorified admin to meaty strategy roles. I think the fact that they are positioning it as a strategy role is good. However having an associate director at a seed company is weirdly hierarchical

I think director of strat may be a better title than CoS

Not sure what the word associate is supposed to indicate

like

For context, role encompasses special projects, KPIs, easing the CEO’s backlog. I like the company and team, just worried about whether the title will convey something entirely different than what I would be doing and what the job description marketed. Not a super important factor for me but any insight will be much appreciated!
