The Role

This is a unique opportunity to join Forgent AI at an inflection point. We've grown to seven-figure ARR in less than four months, winning customers like Deutsche Telekom, Randstad, Capgemini, one of the top-3 global strategy consultancies, and Big Four firms. Now we're launching the next stage, and we need someone to build it with us.

As Chief of Staff Commercial, you'll work directly with our CEO to design, build, and run the commercial engine: sales structures, marketing, go-to-market motion, and growth processes that turn early traction into repeatable scale. This is not a behind-the-scenes staff role. You'll be customer-facing from day one, in deals, pilots, and expansion conversations, while building the systems that let us grow beyond founder-led sales.

This role demands exceptional process thinking, bias for action, and the ambition to take on real commercial leadership as we scale.

What You'll Do

• Partner directly with the CEO on commercial strategy, priorities, and execution. You are the extension of the founder in everything go-to-market and will be turning CEO priorities into clear plans, owners, deadlines, and results
• Build the GTM engine through customer research, pipeline management, sales operations, follow-ups, developing a pricing strategy, and sales forecasting
• Work customer-facing in strategic deals, from enterprise pilots with consulting firms and corporates to land-and-expand motions
• Own and build our marketing engine: positioning, content, demand generation, events, and the brand presence that fills our pipeline
• Turn what works into repeatable structure: codify the sales motion, prepare the hiring and onboarding of the growing commercial team
• Drive cross-functional growth initiatives with Product and Engineering, translating market signals into what we build next

You'll Thrive Here If You

• Have a track record at a top-tier strategy consultancy (McKinsey, BCG, Bain or comparable) and/or helped build a high-growth startup in an early commercial or operations role
• Bring exceptionally strong process and structured thinking: you see systems where others see chaos
• Can work highly autonomous, are proactively tackling challenges in the business, and able to deliver high-quality results
• Are genuinely excited to be customer-facing. You want to sell, not just analyse
