Chief of Staff (All Genders)

What you'll do - your playing field

This is how you move our mission forward every day.

• You own selected strategic and operational projects end-to-end. You take projects from the initial idea and concept through planning and execution to measurable results.
• You build and continuously improve our core company processes. You create clear structures and scalable ways of working that help the organization operate more effectively as we grow.
• You work closely with Nik on cross-functional strategic projects and priorities. You bring different teams and perspectives together, create clarity on what matters most, and make sure important initiatives move forward.

In addition to your core responsibilities, you will also:

• Supporting process optimization in other operational areas as needed
• Preparing decision-making materials and analyses for the founder team

What you bring to the team

We're not looking for a perfect CV. But you should recognise yourself in these points.

• Process & Structure: You think in processes and structures, quickly bring clarity to complex or ambiguous situations, and know how to turn them into pragmatic ways of working.
• Project Ownership: You have experience independently driving projects from idea to execution in a fast-growing environment and are comfortable taking responsibility for both strategy and implementation.
• Tools: You are confident working with Notion, project management tools, Google Workspace, and Slack and use them effectively to create transparency, structure, and efficient collaboration

Good to know

We want you to know what this role really looks like from day one.

• This role is significantly more hands-on than the title might suggest: you don't just plan, you execute, and take ownership across shifting topic areas. The exact focus will be sharpened further together with the team. If you're looking for pure strategy work without hands-on execution, this role isn't for you.

Bonus

Not a must – but this'll definitely earn you extra points.

• Experience in a high-growth startup
• Early experience building People/org processes

The Prematch Setup

We want you to love joining us - and still love being part of the team a long time from now.

• Employee participation (VSOP) - directly benefit from the company’s success.
• Modern tech setup - We provide the tools and devices you need to be productive.
• AI-powered work  - We use AI tools to work smarter and more efficiently, and provide you with the tools you need to make the most of AI in your day-to-day work.
• 27 vacation days per year - For your rest and to recharge. Plus special arrangements if you’re a parent, so you can better balance family and relaxation.
• Remote work - depending on your distance to the office, you work 1–3 days a week onsite and the rest flexibly remote - whatever suits you best. Tech & Product roles sometimes offer 100% remote.
• Three cool offices in Cologne, Berlin, and London - true startup vibes to work and grow together. Want to visit another office? We support that too!
• Remote, even from afar - Whether it’s a week of sunshine abroad or a few days with family - we allow flexible work from outside your usual location.
• Team events at our locations - Whether after work in Cologne, Berlin, or London: we regularly bring teams together to connect and grow stronger.
• Offsites with the whole team - Four days out of the daily grind with the entire team: trips, brainstorming, onsite collaboration, and real team spirit.

Still here? Sounds like a pretty good match.

If you've made it this far, we hope we've managed to show you one thing: how we work, what we believe in and why this role at PREMATCH is something special. Maybe this is exactly the moment you've been waiting for: a team that thinks big, a vision that actually moves things and the chance to help reshape amateur football digitally – together with us. Now it's your turn.
