Chief Of Staff (Veterans Encouraged To Apply)

Chief of StaffLocation: Omaha, Nebraska Compensation: $150K base + performance bonusReports to: Chief Executive OfficerType: Full-time | High-Visibility Role | Strategic SupportSector: Professional Services 

About The CompanyThis fast-growing, mission-driven company is led by a dynamic CEO who also operates as a public speaker and podcast host. With expansion and media visibility accelerating, the firm is seeking a strategic Executive Assistant to ensure the CEO’s time, energy, and communication are focused on what matters most. This is not a traditional support role—it’s a high-trust partnership.

The OpportunityThis role blends traditional executive support with project management, communications, CRM oversight, and media coordination. You’ll operate as a right hand to the CEO—handling confidential matters, managing high-stakes schedules, and driving execution across internal and external initiatives.

If you’ve ever served as an Aide-De-Camp or thrived as the operational linchpin in a high-tempo environment, this is your opportunity to shape the inner workings of a growing legal and media platform.

What You’ll Do

CEO & Executive Operations

• Own and manage the CEO’s complex calendar, inbox, and communication workflows

• Prioritize and triage CEO requests, ensuring critical follow-up and delegation

• Prepare agendas, materials, and briefings for meetings with leadership, clients, and partners

• Coordinate all domestic and international travel, itineraries, and expense tracking

• Handle sensitive information with absolute discretion and professional judgment

Public Speaking & Media Support

• Track upcoming events, submissions, and deadlines for CEO’s speaking appearances

• Collaborate with marketing and production teams to meet content deadlines

Communication, CRM, and Project Management

• Act as a liaison to internal teams, external vendors, clients, and stakeholders

• Represent the CEO in meetings in his absence

• Draft, edit, and send correspondence on behalf of the CEO

• Maintain CRM data accuracy and build reporting workflows

• Track projects, deadlines, and commitments—ensuring completion without the CEO needing to follow up

• Apply a “10-80-10” model for project execution: prep 10%, execute 80%, review 10%

You’d Be a Great Fit If You Have:

• 5–10+ years supporting executive leaders, consulting, or high-visibility roles

• A Bachelor’s degree (MBA or military Aide-De-Camp experience a strong plus)

• Strong project management skills; PMP certification preferred

• High digital fluency across email, calendar tools, Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, CRM systems
