  • Technical Background: Prior experience as a technology leader such as a CIO, CISO, or CTO, or similar., with the ability to oversee and manage technical teams.
  • Execution-Driven Leadership: A results-driven leader with an enforcer-type personality, capable of ensuring operational efficiency and discipline across all departments.
  • Operational Autonomy: Ability to operate with significant autonomy, making critical operational decisions while keeping the CEO informed and aligned with the company’s strategic direction.
  • Cultural Fit: Ability to foster a collaborative environment while ensuring that operational tasks are executed effectively and on time.

Performance Metrics:

  • Operational Efficiency: Achieve a specific percentage increase in overall operational efficiency (e.g., reduce operational costs by 15% within the first year).
  • Process Implementation: Get the company aligned and driving in the same direction together within 6 months by setting standards and expectations, with a high adherence rate across all departments.
  • Team Performance: Improve team productivity and collaboration, measured by key performance indicators specific to each department.
  • Strategic Execution: Successfully execute strategic initiatives, translating them into actionable tasks with measurable outcomes, and meeting project milestones.
  • Operational Autonomy: Establish and maintain a high level of operational autonomy, allowing the CEO to focus on high-level strategy and external relations.
