Chief of Staff

The Company is seeking a Chief of Staff to work directly with its CEO on high-priority assignments across business, operations, technology, and science. Initially, the role will focus on international business development and opening new markets, alongside industrial and economic initiatives. The Chief of Staff will lead cross-functional task forces, coordinate contributors who may not report directly to them, and build a team as responsibilities grow. Success requires independently identifying the people and approach needed to deliver results. Candidates should bring experience in high-stakes execution roles and a record of leading cross-functional projects, along with sound judgment, autonomy, and an understanding of how organizations operate. A degree is not required; academic or self-directed backgrounds are welcome, with education and training considered particularly for early-career applicants. Fluency in French and English is required. Knowledge of defense institutions, experience working with foreign governments, collaboration with French scientific institutions, or familiarity with regional development are advantageous.
