- Maintain project trackers, SOPs, templates, and systems to support execution.
- Reduce executive involvement in operational details without compromising quality.
3. Founder Community Buildout
- Support the creation and management of a founder community platform.
- Coordinate onboarding, event programming, and engagement tracking.
- Develop repeatable systems for community activation, retention, and growth.
4. Fundraising Operations
- Build and maintain investor CRM and pipeline tracking.
- Support investor communications, meeting follow-ups, and reporting.
- Ensure no opportunity, relationship, or deadline is overlooked.
5. Team & Operations Management
- Support or coordinate execution across a team of 5+.
- Run or support weekly check-ins, accountability sessions, and SOP adoption.

6. AI-Enabled Execution
- Use AI tools to convert notes, voice memos, and transcripts into actionable briefs, SOPs, and project plans.
- Maintain a single source of truth in organizational tools.
- Innovate and implement AI and system-based solutions to enhance execution speed and quality.
Non-Negotiables
- Based in Lagos, Nigeria, with ability to travel to Ikoyi/Victoria Island as needed.
- 5+ years in senior Executive Assistant, Chief of Staff, or startup operations roles.
- Experience managing a team of 5+.
- Excellent written and spoken English.
- Strong Notion proficiency and AI fluency.
- Stable internet, electricity, and quiet workspace.
