Chief of Staff

About Advantage HQ

Advantage HQ is building the next generation consumer products platform.

At the core of our business is one of the world’s most powerful growth engines, managing over $850M in annual media spend, executing 80,000+ creator partnerships every month, and leveraging a network of more than 400,000 influencers across Meta, TikTok, and YouTube. Powered by Meteoric AI, our proprietary intelligence platform, we use data and AI to make smarter decisions across creator partnerships, customer acquisition, product launches, and brand growth.

But the platform is only part of the story. Alongside it, we are building a portfolio of category-leading consumer brands across health, wellness, nutrition, beauty, personal care, and lifestyle. We partner with exceptional founders and operators to launch new ventures, acquire existing businesses, provide growth capital, and accelerate their growth using the unique capabilities of the Advantage HQ ecosystem.

The platform and the HoldCo strengthen one another. Every capability we build improves our portfolio companies, and every company we build makes the platform stronger.

This role sits at the center of both.

The Opportunity

This is not a traditional Chief of Staff role. You won’t be managing calendars, coordinating meetings, or preparing presentations.

As Chief of Staff to the Founder, you’ll work on the company’s highest-leverage opportunities - wherever they exist.

One month you may be helping redesign the operating model of Advantage HQ.

The next, you may be evaluating an acquisition, helping recruit a CEO for one of our portfolio companies, launching a new consumer brand, implementing AI across the organization, or leading a company-wide strategic initiative.

You won’t own a single department. You’ll help shape the future of the entire platform.

If you enjoy solving complex business problems but want to own execution instead of simply making recommendations, this role was built for you.

Your Mission

Partner directly with the Founder to help build one of the world’s leading consumer products platforms by driving the strategic initiatives, operating systems, and executive decisions that unlock our next stage of growth.
