Chief of Staff to the CEO

Chief of Staff to the CEO

Grupo Vaughan · Spain · Full-time · Reports directly to the CEO

​

What you'll actually do

• Own the strategic agenda. Prepare the board and investor materials for Tutore and Innova — not by collecting slides from others, but by building the analysis yourself and being able to defend every number in it.
• Run the hard analyses. Unit economics by business line. Build-vs-buy on technology. Market entry cases. You will be the person who knows where the money actually comes from and where it actually goes.
• Run projects. Own a portfolio of projects that Vaughan employees are working on. Make sure things keep moving, track progress, and flag any roadblocks to the CEO.

​

What success looks like in the first 12 months

• You can answer any question about Vaughan's P&L faster and more accurately than anyone outside Finance.
• Board and investor materials go out earlier, with fewer revisions, and hold up under questioning.
• Two or three specific decisions were materially better because of analysis you did.
• You have run at least one initiative end to end that had a measurable number attached to it.

​

Who we're looking for

• 3–5 years at a top-tier strategy consultancy (McKinsey, BCG, Bain, or similar), private equity, or investment banking.  
• Genuinely exceptional analytical horsepower. You build the model yourself; you don't brief someone else to build it.  
• Familiarity with AI tools (including how to use them to build Excel files and PowerPoint presentations) – combined with business judgment to know when AI solutions don’t make sense and need to be challenged
• Professional fluency in both Spanish and English
• Comfort with ambiguity, incomplete data, and having your work seen by a PE board

​

What we offer

• Direct, daily access to the CEO and a seat in the room where the decisions actually get made — including with the board and our private equity owners.
• A firsthand experience in operations of a PE-owned company, a stepping stone for you to own operations, and potentially P&L in your next role
• Competitive compensation
• Hours that are better than consulting and limited travel
