Chief of Staff (f/m/d)

Work directly with the Founder & CEO. Build what’s next for gitti.

This is not a classic Chief of Staff role. 

This is not a role for someone who wants to observe. It’s for someone who wants to take ownership, make decisions and build. You will operate at the intersection of brand, product and performance - helping us build and scale a new category where nail care meets skincare.

This role is not just about driving execution, but about shaping how we grow: through strong product narratives, clear positioning and a scalable, commercially sound model.

What you’ll do

• Act as a trusted sparring partner to the CEO, challenging thinking and shaping decisions

• Turn strategy into action: define priorities, break them down and make sure they move forward

• Help build a scalable growth model by increasing performance, speed and execution quality

• Help define and sharpen our core product narratives (e.g. treatments, routines, “skincare for nails”)

• Identify bottlenecks and remove them

• Work closely with Product and Marketing to shape how our products are positioned, launched and scaled

• Step into critical topics hands-on when needed -  no “that’s not my job” mindset

• Work closely with the VP Finance & Operations to steer key KPIs, forecasts and budgets

• Prepare and drive key CEO and leadership moments (meetings, decisions, follow-ups)
  
  

• 5+ years in high-performance environments (e.g. consulting, high-growth start-up/scale-up)

• Strong commercial mindset and understanding of financial drivers (ideally finance background)

• Strong sense for product, brand and consumer - you understand what makes people buy

• You think in outcomes, not tasks -  and take full ownership of results

• You are highly structured, but not rigid - you bring clarity without slowing things down

• You are hands-on and execution-driven

• You have strong communication skills and can align different stakeholders

• You are fluent in German and English

• You will work directly with the Founder/CEO on the most critical topics of the company

• You will work at the intersection of brand, product and performance

• You will help shape how gitti shows up in the world - from product to communication to growth

• You will have real ownership, not just visibility

• You will be expected to grow fast - and take on increasing responsibility as the company scales
