Job description

Join Archive in our mission to change consumer behavior for the better. If you think humans buy too much stuff and throw too much away, then this problem is for you. We’re starting with fashion and expanding from there.

Archive is the leading technology platform for branded resale. The company works with more than 50 global brands including The North Face, Diane von Furstenberg and New Balance, to develop innovative resale programs that keep products out of landfill.

We have raised over $25 million from Lightspeed, Bain Capital Ventures, and other great investors.

We are currently a remote team of ~45 with an office location in NYC looking to grow to ~100 in the next 3 years.

We are seeking a highly driven and adaptable Chief of Staff to work alongside our CEO as a trusted partner. In this role, you will ensure strategic initiatives are executed efficiently, operational gaps are addressed, and the CEO’s time is optimized for the highest priorities.

This is a unique opportunity for a motivated individual to take on a high-impact, cross-functional role at a high-growth, early-stage startup.

Key Responsibilities

Run the company’s operating cadence, including all-hands meetings, annual planning, and company off-sites, while identifying and resolving operational inefficiencies.

Surface important company decisions and help structure and drive alignment within the leadership team.

Monitor team dynamics, raising potential issues and opportunities for improvement to the CEO and leadership team.

Collaborate with the CEO to maximize her effectiveness by shaping priorities, anticipating needs, and guiding strategic decisions.

Oversee the CEO’s time management and work with her EA to ensure her calendar is optimized and focused on high-leverage activities.

Own investor relations, preparing board materials, pitch decks, and ensuring strategic communications are compelling and polished.

Define, lead, and execute high-priority, cross-functional projects with board-level impact on a quarterly basis.

About You

Structured problem solver: You can take complex, messy problems and add structure to drive towards a decision.

High EQ and IQ: You are sharp, kind, and an outstanding communicator.

Entrepreneurial and action-oriented: you don’t hesitate to roll up your sleeves and get things done. You don’t shy away from ambiguity and paving your own path forward.

Comfortable being direct: you confidently speak up, provide constructive feedback, and challenge ideas thoughtfully.

Trustworthy and discreet: you handle sensitive information with the utmost care and maintain accountability.

Skills & Experience

2–6 years of experience in management consulting, investment banking or high-growth startups.

Strong Excel and analytical skills, with a demonstrated ability to build and interpret data-driven insights.

Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, with a sharp eye for detail.

Proven ability to manage cross-functional projects and implement processes that improve operational efficiency.

What Success Looks Like in 90 Days

Develop a clear understanding of Archive’s operations, culture, and strategy, identifying inefficiencies and proposing solutions.

Take ownership of meeting cadences, ensuring agendas, takeaways, and follow-ups are optimized.

Support in structuring key decisions and analyzing potential scenarios.

Improve internal processes, including team documentation and resources, to enhance company-wide alignment.

Optimize the CEO’s time, enabling her to focus on high-impact priorities.

Collaborate with the leadership team to maintain alignment on Archive’s strategic direction.

Begin executing special projects with measurable, board-level impact.

Archive is a Series A startup backed by top-tier investors including Lightspeed and Bain Capital. We’re a fast growing team, working with over 50 brands including The North Face and New Balance. The founders, Emily and Ryan, bring a mix of business and technology experience including 2 startups and a successful exit.

We are honored to be named Fast Company's #2 Most Innovative Company in Retail in 2024.

The team is currently remote-first with a hub office in NY and optional in-person work for those located in the area. We have company offsites twice a year to bring the full team together in person, and occasional travel is expected as part of the job.

We consider applicants of all backgrounds. If you are excited about what we’re building but don't meet some of the criteria above, please don’t let that discourage you from applying. Please note, we are unable to accept applications from candidates outside of the US at this time.
