Thoughts on Chief of Staff Roles within industry? Recruiting with a multi-national sales training and performance company as the CoS to their CEO. They want to build out a new professional service arm amongst other strategic growth initiatives and they need someone to help push the agenda. By thoughts I am looking for things like... are these valued positioned in companies, trajectory into an executive role in a few years, compensation accretive, interesting work?
Comp sounds like it will be +\- $165, 25% bonus and some variable comp tied to the performance of the sales team (don't know numbers here but certainly interesting). Is that in play for this type role? I am currently M1, S&O, MBA from top 5, high performer. Represents a small bump for me on my current base pay and bonus
Yes typically good role to set you up for future growth. However have clear discussion what the next 3 years will look like
How'd you find this job?? That's about my dream role! Good luck!
Recruiter. When you say clear discussion about next 3 years, concern that the role will go in a different direction than advertised.. become stagnant or way too much work etc? D1 can you expand on your comments a bit so I have some things to chew on. Lunch with CEO in a week so I am in diligence phase right now.
So typically I have seen people joining similar roles and then taking up a leadership / p&l roles in the company. In short it's a long internship for such roles. Have a discussion of they have had similar roles before. How people are doing after this role. Where do you see yourself after this role etc. So that when you join you can works towards that and the leadership can also mentor you accordingly
Thanks D1
