Chief Of Staff To CEO

Your work will change lives. Including your own.

The Impact You'll Make

As the Chief of Staff to the CEO, you will work directly alongside Recursion's CEO and Co-founder. This role puts you in a position to see firsthand how decisions are made, and actions are taken in a leading TechBio company. Your responsibilities will span from significant strategic initiatives - like evaluating new technology/trends/companies, reviewing internal and external comms and presentations, and helping prepare background information for key meetings - to essential administrative tasks, such as partnering closely with our administrative team to organize travel and prioritize meetings.

To succeed in the role, you'll be expected to dive into all aspects of Recursion and the TechBio industry, be comfortable with consistent and relatively intense travel, and develop deep trust with not only our CEO, but our entire senior leadership team so that you can find effective ways to continually improve how we leverage our CEO's time and energy.

In this role, you will:

• Analyze industry trends, new companies/technology, macroeconomic and/or government data, internal operational plans, and other types of information to synthesize and highlight critical takeaways
• Have a front-row seat to high-level strategic meetings, prepare comprehensive agendas and background materials, document critical discussions, and track action items to support the CEO's vision
• Facilitate communication between our CEO, internal teams, and external stakeholders
• Demonstrate relentless dedication to optimizing our CEO's time and energy to achieve our company's ambitions, amplifying effectiveness
• Partner with our CEO's admin to support and prioritize schedules, coordinate extensive travel arrangements, and ensure seamless day-to-day transit and operations

The Team You'll Join

While you will be working side-by-side with our CEO, you will be reporting to the VP of Business Operations and further supported by the entire Business Operations group at Recursion. This group is responsible for project and program management, strategic planning, corporate goals/priorities, org design and resource tracking, corporate data and analytics, operational/administrative support, and other corporate initiatives. By working directly with our CEO while supported by the Business Operations group, you will be well-positioned to have an outsized impact on our company trajectory.

The Experience You'll Need

• Educational Background: Bachelor's degree and/or advanced degree in business, engineering, or life sciences
• Professional Experience: 5-7 years of experience in the biotech or pharma industry (and/or equivalent consulting experience), ideally within a focus on R&D organizations
• Analytical Skills: Exceptional ability to synthesize complex information into actionable strategies, and able to quickly learn and utilize the latest AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT)
• Organizational Skills: Proven track record of managing multiple priorities with meticulous attention to detail
• Interpersonal Skills: Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills to interact effectively with senior executives and external partners
• Adaptability: High level of flexibility to handle tasks ranging from strategic planning to administrative duties
• Availability: Willingness to work extended hours and travel frequently, including internationally

Working Location:

This position is based at our HQ office located in Salt Lake City, UT. There is also a travel expectation to this role where you would be expected to travel with (or before) the CEO very frequently.
