Chief of Staff – Stragegie & Operations (m/w/d)

Responsibilities

We are representing a confidential facility management organization seeking a Chief of Staff for Strategy & Operations in Berlin. In this role, you will work directly with executive leadership to drive organizational development and strategic execution.

You will serve as the central communication and coordination hub between executive leadership and department heads, translating strategic priorities into concrete goals, projects, and actionable measures. Your responsibilities include steering company-wide initiatives, ensuring clear accountability through defined KPIs and deadlines, and establishing regular management and performance review cadences.

You will create transparency across business unit performance by preparing management reports, analyses, and decision-making materials. A core part of your role involves identifying bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and risks, then developing practical solutions in collaboration with functional teams.

Process optimization will be central to your work—you will analyze existing workflows and structures, driving standardization, digitalization, and continuous improvement. As the organization grows, you will develop scalable systems and processes that remain efficient at larger scale.

You will own selected strategic special projects from conception through implementation, acting as a sparring partner to leadership by constructively challenging existing approaches and bringing a company-wide perspective to key decisions. Most importantly, you will ensure that decisions translate into concrete actions, and actions into measurable results.
