Chief of Staff to the Co-Heads of Global Investments

Role Summary

The Chief of Staff (COS) to the Co-Heads of Global Investments (HOI) acts as a strategic partner and multiplier to the HOI, ensuring their time, focus, and outputs are aligned to top strategic and investment priorities. This role serves as a trusted proxy and quality gate—able to assess whether materials, messaging, or work product are ready for senior audiences. Operates with immediate credibility across the organization, leveraging an existing broad and deep network and having a strong understanding of how the firm works. Brings judgment informed by experience (internal and/or client-facing) to elevate executive engagement, decision-making, and delivery quality. The individual should demonstrate both good strategic and tactical skillsets. This role will formally report to Sébastien Page in the system for now. However, as with all roles reporting into a HOI, it will also have a strong dotted-line relationship to Eric Veiel and will support both Co-Heads.

Liaison to Key Stakeholders:

• Maintain strong, trust-based relationships across a wide internal network

• Act as proxy where appropriate, ensuring messaging and positioning are consistent with HOI perspective

Cross-Functional Leadership & Influence:

• Participate in key cross-functional initiatives and steering committees

Strategic Content Review & Executive Readiness:

• Act as a quality control checkpoint for materials (presentations, strategy updates, executive communications) before they reach senior forums

• Evaluate whether work is: “Ready for HOI” vs. needs further development, aligned to strategic narrative, and investment priorities, and clear, concise, and appropriate for executive or client audiences

• Leverage experience with executive presentations and/or client engagement to raise overall quality bar

• Provide direct, actionable feedback to teams on how to improve content

Leverage HOI’s Time & Focus (in partnership with Sr Executive Assistant(s)):

• Prioritize and manage HOI calendar with a sharp focus on highest-value engagements

• Manage requests to ensure all meetings and commitments have clear purpose, outcomes, and preparation

• Coordinate events – both internal & external – balancing between associate, client, and other external audience needs and ensuring efficient use of travel time

• Provide insightful pre-reads and briefings, including context on participants, sensitivities, and decision points

• Optimize travel and engagements to balance clients, internal leadership, and enterprise priorities

Required:

• Well-established internal network across Investments, Distribution, and enterprise functions
