Chief of Staff

At Joko, we help consumers shop smarter. Our mission is to revolutionize shopping, empowering people to find what they need, make

informed decisions, and save money.

Founded in Paris, Joko is a tech company and certified B Corp with over 105 talents across Paris, Barcelona, and New York (and

beyond). More than 6 million users already save money every day at 10,000+ merchants with Joko.

From cashback and automatic coupons to price alerts and carbon tracking, we keep expanding our products to make shopping smarter.

We’re now building an AI-powered shopping assistant to help users find the best products by price, quality, and environmental

impact.

The CEO Office is a hands-on team of high-potential generalists who lead Joko's strategic projects and, when needed, step in to

reinforce teams on short to medium deployments. You'll take over a team of five Founder Associates, with room to grow as the

company scales.

As the leader of that team, your job is to build a team people are proud to be part of, where every Founder Associate grows

quickly and contributes meaningfully to Joko’s most important priorities.

You'll be the CEO's strategic partner at a specific, rare moment in a company's life: a profitable scale-up entering its

international chapter, expanding new business lines, doubling in headcount over the next 18 months, and investing heavily in AI —

with a mature leadership team, a culture worth protecting, and a team that demands excellence.

You'll report directly to Xavier (CEO), partner closely with co-founders Nicolas (CRO) and Alexandre (CTO), and serve as secretary

of the Steering Committee, which is composed of the founders, the CMO, the COO, the VP People, and the Head of Online — putting

you at the heart of every strategic decision the company makes.

The Chief of Staff role is built around the CEO, and the CEO Office is in turn built around the Chief of Staff — together, the

team exists to act as an extension of the CEO. The mandate is fourfold today, and you'll be the architect of all four pillars (as

well as the future ones).

1. Governance. Your team and you will own the rhythm and quality of how Joko is run at the top — board meetings, executive team

meetings, All Hands, and the communication cadence that ties them together. You'll play a central role as animator and

alignment driver for the leadership team.

2. Proactive projects. Your team and you will lead the company-wide initiatives that matter most to the CEO and to Joko's next

chapter — the kind of cross-functional, high-stakes work that doesn't naturally fit any single team.

3. Reactive missions. When a team needs short-term reinforcement, you'll deploy Founder Associates as a strike force, helping us

address critical gaps without hiring in a rush. This will represent a decreasing share of the team's activity as the

organization grows.

4. Culture. Like every member of the SteerCo — and like the CEO — you'll be expected to embody Joko's culture and lead by

example.

"This is one of the most consequential hires I'll make this year. I'm looking for a real partner — someone with the rigor to

challenge my thinking, the architectural mind to build durable systems, and the warmth to carry our culture as we scale. The Chief

of Staff is, in many ways, an extension of me, and the right person will shape Joko's next chapter alongside Alex, Nico, and me."

• 10+ years of experience, combining Tier 1 strategy consulting (BCG, McKinsey, Bain, or equivalent) with operating experience in

a high-growth tech startup or scale-up.

• Architectural thinking: You're as comfortable designing a multi-quarter operating model as you are fixing a broken process. You

think in systems, not tasks.

• Analytical rigor: Structured thinking, attention to detail, comfort with numbers, ability to write a board memo that holds up

under CEO and investor scrutiny.

• Emotional intelligence and stakeholder management: This role lives at the intersection of the CEO, the SteerCo, the Founder

Associates, and every team in the company. You read people well, you build trust quickly across very different stakeholders,

and you handle sensitive conversations with care.

• Energy: You bring genuine drive and presence into a room. You'll be one of the cultural carriers of the company and a

representative of the CEO.

• AI fluency: You already use AI tools fluently in your own work, you have a point of view on how they reshape how teams operate,

and you're excited to help Joko go further — the CEO Office is expected to lead by example on this front.

• Efficiency: You're fluent in productivity tools, ruthless about prioritization, and known for delivering on time across complex

projects with many stakeholders. You instinctively look for the highest-leverage version of any task.

• Entrepreneurial mindset: You thrive in fast-moving, ambiguous environments. You take ownership without being asked, you welcome

feedback, you're an insatiable learner, and you go the extra mile by default.

• Flexible remote : If you live in Paris, you can choose to work from our office or from home with no constraints. If you live

elsewhere, we can provide access to a coworking space and a coworking budget.

• Work from anywhere : Want to spend a month in Italy while working? You can work from most countries in the world for up to 3

months per year.

2. Step 1 – Team interview (45 min): Conversation with two Joko team members (could include the Hiring Manager, people from the

team you’d join, or colleagues from other teams).

3. Step 2 – Role-specific assessments

• For non-engineering roles: A take-home case study followed by a 45-min interview. We assess both your output and how you

think in real time. The exercise will be relevant to your role (e.g. analysis, strategy, or process design).

• For engineering roles: A 90-min live technical interview on CoderPad covering code understanding, review, system design, and

product thinking (with AI serving as a collaboration tool).
