Be the engine behind execution, clarity, and scale At BJAK, we are building Southeast Asia's leading digital financial platform - fast. Our mission is to simplify access to insurance and financial services for millions, and we're moving at startup speed to get there. As Chief of Staff to the CEO, you'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with the founder to turn vision into execution, and execution into results. This is not a coordinator role. It's a high-trust, high-responsibility position for someone who thrives in chaos, owns outcomes end-to-end, and shows up every day ready to push harder. Own cross-functional problems and fix them like the company's future depends on it - because you're personally invested in seeing it succeed. Why this role matters Translate the CEO's vision into clear, actionable priorities across the company Accelerate strategic execution and ensure consistent follow-through across teams Operate as a central hub of communication, planning, and coordination for leadership Solve high-impact problems with a bias for speed, structure, and accountability Help scale the company by building systems and momentum in a fast-moving environment What You Will Do i) Strategic Planning and Execution Partner with the CEO to define, track, and drive progress on strategic priorities, OKRs, and company-wide initiatives Ensure timely execution and alignment of cross-functional projects Identify operational gaps or inefficiencies and coordinate solutions that enable scale ii) Executive Enablement Prepare briefings, analysis, and recommendations to support decision-making at the executive level Optimise the CEO's time by managing priorities, scheduling, and internal/external communication Draft and refine clear, professional communication materials for internal teams, board members, and investors iii) Cross-functional Leadership Support Facilitate leadership meetings, off-sites, and decision forums - including agenda setting, documentation, and action tracking Serve as a key liaison across departments to ensure strategic alignment and clarity Partner closely with department heads to surface issues, unblock progress, and maintain execution momentum iii) Project Ownership Lead cross-functional, high-priority projects that do not have a natural owner Support early-stage strategic initiatives through planning, coordination, and execution Build and implement systems and processes that introduce structure without slowing down the pace You Will Thrive Here If You...
