Chief of Staff

About Comun

At Comun we're building financial services to help Hispanic immigrants turn their hard work into upwards mobility.

Since launching our own bank infra last November, we've 20x'd revenue, crossed $600M in annual payments volume, and are seeing CAC paybacks of 6 months. We currently offer banking and remittances solutions, and will launch more products this year.

We believe immigrants are the ultimate entrepreneurs, carrying a relentless work ethic in search of a better future for their families. Comun exists to serve them throughout their journey.

About The Role

The Chief of Staff is an extension of Comun’s cofounders, supporting them with IC work on any high priority item that surfaces across the company that is not suited for delegation to a particular function, making this role highly strategic and cross-functional.

What you’ll do:

• Finance: Take ownership of our financial function. This includes maintaining our financial model, managing accounting, reconciliations, and owning our key financial metrics and vendor contracts.
• OKRs: You will own KR tracking for company-level and function-specific objectives. You will also drive planning for future OKR exercises.
• Board Meeting Prep: You will help our CEO prepare key materials for our quarterly board meeting.
• Product Strategy: You will assist our head of product and founders in defining our long term product roadmap.
• Business Development: You will source and own partnerships that can unlock business or user value across our product suite. This includes key vendors, affiliates, and product integrations.
• Company building: You will help with additional needs that arise as we grow our team, reinforce our culture, and expand our roadmap.
  
  

You are:

• Business savvy: You are a thought partner in driving Comun to success; you have seen what greatness looks like across stages of company building, and you can constantly reimagine a better version of our business.
• Problem solver: You are action oriented and able to figure out any class of problem, networking with domain experts as necessary. No task is beneath you, and you find ways to systematize or outsource low leverage items.
• Critical thinker: You can own highly strategic decision-making independently, earning the entire team’s trust with your judgment. This includes both short term quantitative decisions as well as long term qualitative ones.
• Analytical: You independently navigate datasets to draw actionable insights. You use data to prioritize and advocate for product changes that drive business outcomes.
• Cross-functional leader: You can maximize the collaborative potential of different functions, building trust across company leaders to remove sources of friction. You can run planning processes efficiently, with clear communication.
• Results-Oriented: You have a track record of owning success metrics, and have the right frameworks for setting them and achieving them.
• Owner: You show passion and care for your work and the company's trajectory. You are constantly seeking ways to uplevel and raise the bar for yourself and the team.
