Chief of Staff serves as the connective tissue between a technical research mission and the operational reality of scaling a team from 30 to 100+ — owning planning, cross‑functional coordination, and the decisions that don't fit neatly into anyone else's job description.

Head of Operations builds the operational backbone — finance, HR, legal, compliance, vendor management — for an organisation that is growing fast, operating across jurisdictions, and can't afford the kind of bureaucratic overhead that slows down mission‑critical work.

Director of Talent designs and leads the hiring strategy for one of the most competitive talent markets in the world — where the candidates you need are being courted by labs offering ten times the compensation, and the value proposition has to be built from mission, not money.

Head of Programmes & Partnerships owns the design and delivery of programmes that transition experienced professionals into AI safety roles — managing partner relationships, candidate pipelines, and the feedback loops that determine whether placements actually stick.
