I was putting into a similar boat. What I found worked best in my particular situation was to let these people mess up, and then I would gently step in and offer solution to the people most likely to be receptive to it.
The main thing is to not stress about it until it actively and negatively impacts you then, when you raise the issue and provide the solution, you’re not seen as an interlope we’re trying to overstep, you’re seen as a smart person who’s coming to the table with solutions.
I was in such a role after a layoff. 10 months of searching, and I was glad to have something to pay the bills. I dropped a level in title and was thrust into doing a role meant for 2-3 people. And the pay was 2/3 what I was making before, which was financially hard. They wanted my senior experience, but loaded me with junior work and 1/5th of an assistant. And expected me to find time to do both strategic development work all the while deciding which wine and food to serve at one of the 6 events we ran in the year (along with deciding whether to choose the wine pull or bar option at one of the 90+ sponsorships a year that we coordinated). I lasted 18 months before I found a role where I am back to more strategic work (which also has a high share of tedious detail work). I am honestly not sure if there is a solution other than leaving, but interested to hear others' thoughts.
