Every day, Reddit users submit, vote, and comment on the topics they care most about. With 100,000+ active communities and approximately 130 million daily active unique visitors, Reddit is one of the internet’s largest sources of information. For more information, visit www.redditinc.com.

As the Chief of Staff to the EVP of Global Ad Sales, you will serve as a high-leverage strategic operator, executive proxy, and force multiplier across the Global Sales Organization (GSO). Your key function is to scale executive attention, accelerate decision velocity, and translate GSO’s highest strategic priorities into clear execution and follow-through.

The ideal Chief of Staff operates with high EQ to maintain Reddit’s open, collaborative, and accessible culture while ensuring that executive time is prioritized for high-impact drivers. You will partner closely with Sales Strategy & Operations, regional sales leadership, and cross-functional executive teams to orchestrate a seamless operational rhythm and drive global alignment.

This role is required to be based in New York or London.

Responsibilities:

• Drive Alignment & Prioritization
• Filter & Route Inquiries: Establish clear operational paths for routine data requests, incident reporting, and tactical items below the executive level, freeing leadership bandwidth for major revenue initiatives.
• Executive Proxy & Strategic Alignment: Represent the EVP in key cross-functional leadership forums, planning reviews, and offsites, building bottoms-up consensus and alignment before issues require top-down intervention.
• Surface Field Signals: Synthesize customer sentiment, competitive dynamics, and field feedback directly from front-line sales teams to keep executive leadership deeply connected to market realities.
• Pre-Frame Executive Decisions: Ensure material revenue proposals and strategic escalations reaching the EVP are pre-framed with clear context and explicit recommendations, allowing leadership to focus on high-order strategic decisions.
• Operational Rhythm & Business Cadence
• Orchestrate Business Cadence: Maintain the global sales operational rhythm, including leadership reviews, quarterly business reviews, strategic offsites, and key team communication forums, ensuring priorities are proactively tracked and fire drills are minimized.
• Cross-Functional Alignment with Sales Strategy & Operations: Partner seamlessly with Sales Strategy & Operations by translating strategic outputs into operational workstreams, leadership narratives, and review frameworks.
• Executive Communications & Collateral: Drive end-to-end preparation of strategic collateral, executive presentations, board materials, and organizational communications in close coordination with Internal Comms partners.
• Track Strategic Priorities & Follow-Through
• Track & Report on Key Commercial Initiatives: Track high-priority commercial initiatives and global sales bets, ensuring every key initiative has a clearly defined owner, success metrics, and milestones.
• Accountability & Execution: Ensure regional and functional leaders leave executive reviews with clear action items and deadlines; track ongoing performance against overarching organization priorities.
• Cross-Functional Initiative Support: Drive alignment and operational support for complex, multi-functional sales initiatives across GTM, Product, Marketing, and SS&O.

Qualifications:

• 10+ years of relevant experience in a Sales/revenue/business strategy & operations role within an ad sales organization
• Deep understanding of the rhythm of the business in a high-growth environment
• Exceptional problem-solving skills, with a proven ability to synthesize complex data/insights and build actionable strategies around the highest impact opportunities
• Outstanding communication and relationship building skills, with the ability to build trust and influence across all levels
• Proven track record of managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Results-oriented and committed to driving measurable impact
• Innovative operator, accustomed to leveraging technology (i.e. AI, tooling), to scale, improve and help the team operate more effectively

The Ideal Candidate:

• Believes in Reddit’s mission
• Is organized and can build their own structure
• Is a strong communicator
• Is an optimist
• Is humble
• Can effectively communicate with everyone from engineers to sales
• Is fact-based, and willing to be hypothesis-driven
• Needs limited guidance and no instruction manual
• Acts as a force multiplier vs. a barrier to their executive partner

Benefits:

• Global Benefit programs that fit your lifestyle, from workspace to professional development to caregiving support
• Family Planning Support
• Gender-Affirming Care
• Mental Health & Coaching Benefits
• Group Personal Pension Scheme with Employer match
