Founder-mode operator — high agency and an ability to act on instinct, before being asked

Context-switcher — comfortable moving between all three worlds in the same day

Exceptional communicator — confident and clear across formats and audiences

Operational powerhouse — you drive structure, efficiency, and accountability in fast-moving, complex environments

Sharp writer and researcher — you produce clean, efficient memos, updates, and diligence work that get straight to the point, no fluff

Highly collaborative with a good sense of humor — you stay warm, steady, and easy to work with under pressure

Highly trustworthy and discreet — you'll handle sensitive information and critical relationships

Action-oriented leader — you don't just advise; you own and drive results

How You Operate

You operate in full alignment with the Co-CEOs' thinking — when you speak on their behalf, you speak with clarity and conviction, and you recalibrate fast when something's off

You extend the Co-CEOs' reach: proactively managing every relationship that matters

You communicate early and often — proactive updates are the default, not the exception

You're warm and honest — you handle direct communication well and don't avoid hard conversations

You assume good intent and offer people the benefit of the doubt — and expect the same in return

You understand that small gestures, done right, build long-term trust and relationship equity

About the Role

The Chief of Staff will serve as a strategic partner to goop's Co-CEOs and executive team, driving strategic alignment, execution, and communication across the organization. This role reports directly to the Co-CEOs, representing their interests across three worlds: goop's business (beauty & fashion), Gwyneth's media presence, and investment interests — working across time zones with global, cross-functional teams. The Chief of Staff must be able to shift context across these worlds multiple times in a single day without losing focus or dropping a thread, and ensures the Co-CEOs' priorities are clearly translated into action across each of them — supporting effective executive operations and helping shape company-wide operations, communication, and culture — while owning a high volume of board, portfolio, and investment work across the business.

CO-CEO PARTNERSHIP & STRATEGIC SUPPORT

Ensure the Co-CEOs' priorities are clearly communicated across the organization and support the Co-CEOs in driving execution by direct reports and cross-functional teams

Act as gatekeeper — knowing when to filter and when to let things flow directly — and, as requested by the Co-CEOs, serve as proxy in key meetings, synthesizing, summarizing, and relaying critical insights to inform decision-making

Field, review, prioritize, and, where appropriate, respond to incoming requests, proposals, and opportunities directed to the Co-CEOs

Work closely with the Co-CEOs' Executive Assistant(s) to communicate and sequence priorities, manage scheduling trade-offs, and optimize the Co-CEOs' time and focus — across time zones as needed

Prepare executive-ready briefings, memos, and presentations — equipping the Co-CEOs with the context, data, and materials needed for internal, board, and external engagements

Shape how the Co-CEOs represent the company's strategy and brand to internal teams, the board, media, and external partners

Collaborate with the social media team to execute the Co-CEOs' personal social presence across channels, ensuring authenticity, alignment with brand values, and consistency with their voice

Partner with the Head of Communications to prepare the Co-CEOs for media appearances and public engagements — building background materials, researching attendees and guests, and managing protocol

Coordination with podcast production team, as needed

AI-ENABLED OPERATIONS & SYSTEMS

Design, build, and maintain AI-driven systems — including a Co-CEO-facing Notion dashboard layered with plugins and AI agents — serving as the single source of truth for real-time visibility into priorities, decisions, and follow-ups across all three worlds

Continuously explore and test new AI tools, plugins, and agents, turning promising ones into practical, repeatable workflows for the Co-CEOs and executive team

Partner with cross-functional teams to spot operational bottlenecks and solve them with AI-driven automation and internal tooling

Monitor the performance of AI-driven workflows and iterate for continual improvement

Build documentation and best practices for AI-enabled operations so tools and workflows scale and transfer beyond any one person

EXECUTIVE TEAM LEADERSHIP & STRATEGIC OPERATIONS

Lead and facilitate weekly executive team meetings, including setting clear agendas, driving accountability, and ensuring timely follow-through on action items

Meet regularly with senior subject-matter leaders to align on priorities, share Co-CEO context, and ensure cross-functional clarity and collaboration

Serve as a trusted strategic partner to every department head — not just the C-suite — translating the Co-CEOs' priorities into function-specific plans and holding cross-functional teams accountable to them

Facilitate alignment and communication between the Co-CEOs and direct reports to accelerate decision-making and maintain organizational focus

Partner with executive leaders to develop OKRs and track execution against strategic priorities

Act as lead strategic project manager on key cross-functional initiatives, ensuring clear ownership, timelines, and outcomes

When requested by the Co-CEOs or other executives, contribute to strategic discussions by providing context and insights that reflect Co-CEO and company priorities

Capture notes and action items during board and offsite sessions; track follow-ups and ensure accountability across functional leaders

Own ambiguous, high-priority special projects that don't have a clear owner — from research sprints to one-off initiatives — and see them through to completion

COMPANY-WIDE COMMUNICATION & CULTURE

Shape Co-CEO-led communications for all-company meetings and standups, ensuring alignment with the company's values, strategy, and priorities
