The Company

Uscreen is a video monetization platform empowering thousands of creators and media companies to build subscription-based streaming businesses. Our creators have generated nearly $1 billion in revenue while maintaining complete ownership of their audience and content.

We're fully remote, bootstrapped, and profitable since day one. We recently partnered with a growth capital firm for our next phase of expansion under new CEO leadership.

The Role

Our CEO needs a strategic partner and operating right hand: someone who can own the rhythms that keep the company running, manage priorities ruthlessly, and help build the CEO's external presence as a leader in the creator economy. This role blends strategic chief of staff work with high-level executive support, communications, and brand building.

If you have a startup mentality and are excited about scaling a business at the intersection of creator economy, media, and SaaS – and you love operating in the details while keeping an eye on strategy – this could be the one.

Position Ownership

CEO & Company Operating Rhythms

  • Own weekly, monthly, and quarterly cadences that keep leadership aligned
  • Manage meeting prep, agendas, follow-ups, and accountability tracking
  • Build simple, effective processes that people want to use

Strategic Calendar & Priority Management

  • Proactively manage CEO's calendar based on business priorities
  • Act as gatekeeper and thought partner on where time and attention goes
  • Balance internal meetings, external commitments, and personal priorities

Executive Meeting Support

  • Prepare decks, briefs, talking points, and pre-reads for leadership meetings
  • Synthesize information clearly and concisely; make complex topics digestible
  • Track decisions and action items across the leadership team

CEO Communications

  • Draft internal communications: leadership updates, all-hands decks, company-wide messages
  • Translate strategy into clear, compelling messaging
  • Ensure consistency of voice and narrative across the organization

CEO Brand & External Presence

  • Support CEO's LinkedIn and social content: draft and edit video/written copy, post, maintain cadence
  • Help shape points of view, posts, and thought leadership in the creator economy
  • Coordinate events, speaking opportunities, and podcast appearances
  • Partner with marketing/PR on external visibility and media opportunities

Cross-Functional Coordination

  • Partner with CFO and senior leadership team on planning, follow-ups, and strategic alignment
  • Act as connective tissue across teams; ensure nothing falls through the cracks
  • Surface insights and flag issues that need CEO attention
  • Drive ad-hoc strategic initiatives directly from the CEO
  • Provide research, synthesis, and execution support on high-priority company initiatives

Your Credentials:

We're open to diverse backgrounds. The right person could come from:

  • 1-3 years post-MBA (top-tier program) transitioning from consulting into operations
  • 3-5 years in consulting, operations, or high-growth startups
  • Senior EA or Chief of Staff with significant scope looking to step into a more strategic role
  • Communications, marketing, or content roles with executive exposure

What matters most:

  • Operations-minded doer who thrives in the weeds with sleeves rolled up
  • Startup experience or strong builder/bootstrap mentality
  • Excited about PE-backed, high-growth companies and the creator economy
  • Ready to own both the strategic and tactical- if you've been the "EA plus everything else," this role will feel familiar

Critical Skills & Traits

  • Strong work ethic and availability outside standard work hours as needed
  • Highly organized, anticipatory, and obsessively detail-oriented
  • Strong written and verbal communicator – can draft CEO memos, LinkedIn posts, and all-hands decks
  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity and switching between strategic and tactical work seamlessly
  • Social-savvy: understand what makes content resonate and how to build a CEO's voice online
  • Bias for action – don't wait to be told what to do
  • Handle sensitive information with discretion
  • Strong judgment and confidence to push back when needed
  • Design simple, elegant processes (not over-engineered complexity)

What Makes You Stand Out

  • You've seen how great executives operate (consulting, prior EA/CoS experience, or startup exposure)
  • Genuinely interested in the creator economy; can speak intelligently about trends in video, monetization, and platform dynamics
  • Move fast, communicate clearly, don't need hand-holding
  • Have a perspective and aren't afraid to share it – you're a thought partner, not just an executor
  • Bonus: managed social media, built a personal brand, or worked in communications/marketing

What to Expect

  • Learn how a high-growth SaaS company operates from the CEO's vantage point
  • Exposure to every part of the business: product, GTM, finance, operations
  • Shape company strategy and culture during a critical growth phase
  • Work with a CEO who values partnership, clear communication, and bold thinking
  • Fully remote with flexibility and autonomy

Logistics

  • Fully remote structure with flexible working hours
  • Game to align with CEO’s PST working hours, including early starts and late wraps
