Job Description:

Twelvefold ( ) is an AI focused startup studio that builds startups from the ground up and brings on entrepreneurs to scale them. Our team includes successful ex-founders as well as an exceptional set of folks ranging from engineering and product to legal and M&A.
Twelvefold's unique strength lies in its experience building AI companies, running capital efficient global teams, and the ability to support exceptional immigrant entrepreneurs.
Twelvefold's culture is built on a foundation of raw ambition, high autonomy, and lightning-fast execution. Our belief is that skilled individuals leveraging AI-assistance can be 10-100X more productive. We empower these super-builders to take risks, make bold decisions, and own their impact, without the red tape that slows them down. You will find plentiful opportunities to continue growing and working on a diverse set of challenges.
Role
As the CoS, you will need to be highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple projects and priorities simultaneously. You should also have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, as well as the ability to work effectively with people at all levels of the organization.
Responsibilities
Strategic Planning & Execution

• Collaborate with the leadership to develop and implement the studio's strategic plan.
  
• Conduct market research and analysis to support decision-making.
  
• Monitor progress towards goals and report on key performance indicators.
  
  Operations Management
  
  
• Oversee day-to-day operations of the company.
  
• Maintain ownership for the company tracker, assigning tasks to the relevant individual, and ensuring they get completed on time and to studio standards.
  
• Identify and implement process improvements.
  
  Communications
  
  
• Serve as a primary point of contact for internal communications.
  
• Draft and edit internal and external communications, including emails, presentations, and reports.
  
  Ad-hoc & Project Management
  
  
• Take lead in ad-hoc projects, such as launching a new marketing campaign to attract entrepreneurs by running a small free cohort for 4 weeks.
  
• Focus on finding missing skillsets within the team, taking on execution for those roles, and working towards hiring for those roles.
  
• Be involved in the early days of a new project, identifying what would be required to make it successful and assembling the right team members.
  
• Handle operations-related tasks as they arise, deciding whether to execute them yourself, delegate, or ignore.
  
  What We Are Looking For
  
  
• A lot of independent decision-making; we will mentor you to help you acclimate, but our goal is for you to independently make decisions and own the outcomes.
  
• Ability to understand vague ideas and visions and funnel them into concrete actionable steps.
  
• Serve as a practical sounding board for ideas we want to execute (product, marketing, sales, etc.) and plan out what can be executed right now and what needs to be planned for the future.
  
• Strong delegation skills.
  
• Able to think and execute at both the 30,000 ft & 3 ft level.
  
• Experience working at a technology startup (in any role), familiar with the lifecycle of a startup and the challenges they face.
  
  What We Aren't Looking For
  
  
• Running every product-ownership should reside with the relevant product owner.
  
• A person stuck in historical ways of doing things in a slow, boring, and repetitive manner; you should be thrilled and adept at adapting new unconventional ways of executing by leveraging automation and AI.
  
  Examples of Work Involved
  
  
• Researching businesses and potential use cases for meetings with late-stage startups.
  
• Detailing out programs designed for early-stage startups from an equity/consulting perspective.
  
• Working with HR to complete hiring and integration processes for junior roles.
  
• Identifying why team members are not adapting to new tools and taking necessary steps to accomplish this goal.
  
• Creating a detailed plan of action for onboarding freelancer PMs.
  
• Building a reseller program for System Integrators (SIs).
  
• Designing an engagement model for impactful advisors to expand our studio's reach.
