Levelzi is hiring a Chief of Staff for a high-protein food brand built on a patented binder-free manufacturing process using chicken breast, in national distribution at Target and expanding into national and international chain operators, to make the company’s flat organizational structure run at speed.
 About the Client — High-Protein Food Innovation
Product Line: Frozen pizza, wraps, and snack crisps using a patented binder-free process
Distribution: National distribution at Target, DTC sales, expanding into national and international chains
Team Structure: Eight-person brand team with leadership across the U.S. and Egypt
Work Format: Fully remote with in-person travel for customer and plant work
Organizational Design: A flat organization by design, run on Level 10/EOS meeting structure
Career Impact & Chief of Staff Opportunity
Why This Role Exists: The CEO cannot delegate investor relations or financial planning, but can delegate operations
Technical Ownership: Own the weekly Level 10 operating cadence, accountability, and information flow to the CEO
Structured 90-Day Plan: Clear milestones across days 1-30, 31-60, and 61-90
Career Growth: A defined 90-day review against milestones before continuing on an ongoing basis
Position Overview
This is a flat organization by design. The Chief of Staff exists to make that flat structure run at speed, not to build a management layer. The CEO manages four functions simultaneously and cannot delegate investor relations, capital, or financial planning at this stage — but company operations can be delegated to the right person.
 Why This Role Matters: As Chief of Staff, you own the entire weekly Level 10 operating cadence — agenda, scorecard accuracy, issues list, and relentless follow-through, convert the CEO’s verbal briefs into owners, dates, and follow-through, closing gaps when a lead is stuck, maintain a single daily blockers channel so the CEO reads the company’s state in minutes, own cross-functional execution spanning retail and foodservice launch readiness, promotional calendars, and vendor coordination, move the team onto a structured communication platform as an early deliverable, and progress through a clear 90-day plan culminating in owning at least three standing workstreams with the CEO out of coordination.
Qualifications & Requirements
Required Experience
- 5+ years operating inside a company, not advising one; consumer packaged goods strongly preferred, food or beverage ideal
- Holding peers and senior people accountable without formal authority — the single most important attribute in the role
- Fluent written and spoken English, suitable for direct participation in calls with U.S. retail and foodservice customers
- Full-time capacity working core hours overlapping U.S. business hours, fully remote with willingness to travel to the U.S.
Essential Skills
- Comfort with AI tooling as a daily working method, not a novelty
- CPG vocabulary fluency: distributors, brokers, line reviews, velocity, promotional calendars, purchase orders, lead times
