Senior Strategic Consultant – CEO Office

Responsibilities

• Own and drive the Co-CEO's most critical strategic initiatives - from initial problem structuring and analysis through to recommendation, decision, and implementation follow-through.
• Lead projects that cut across product, GTM, engineering, HR, and operations – acting as the Co-CEO's representative and ensuring alignment, momentum, and accountability across teams.
• Build and maintain executive‑level materials and trackers that give the Co-CEO a clear, real‑time view of strategic priorities and the decisions that need to be made.
• Act as a thought partner to the Co-CEO and Founders Associate – sharpening thinking, stress‑testing assumptions, and pressure‑testing strategic decisions before they reach the board or leadership team.
• Bring consulting‑grade rigor to problems that have previously been handled informally – structuring thinking, building frameworks, and creating clarity where there was ambiguity by establishing a clear rhythm of the business.
• Conduct structured deep dives into market dynamics, competitive positioning, customer and buyer behavior, and emerging trends that inform osapiens' strategic direction.
• Evaluate new market opportunities, product expansion scenarios, and geographic growth options – providing structured analysis and clear strategic recommendations.
• Transform raw data, market signals, and qualitative input into clear strategic insights that can be acted on at the Co-CEO and board level.
• Represent the Co-CEO in internal workstreams – operating with the authority and judgement while building strong, trusted working relationships across all functions.
• Prepare the Co-CEO for external engagements with key customers, partners, investors, and industry forums.
• Communicate complex analysis and strategic recommendations clearly and with impact to audiences ranging from working teams to the board – adapting depth and format to the audience.
• Handle sensitive information with complete discretion and act as a reliable, low‑friction partner to the Co-CEO and Founders Associate in all interactions.

Qualifications

• 2–6 years of experience in management consulting (MBB or equivalent), strategic in‑house consulting or at a fast‑scaling SaaS enterprise – the analytical, structural and hands‑on foundation this role demands is non‑negotiable.
• Exceptional analytical and structural thinking – you can take a complex, ambiguous problem, break it down rigorously, and synthesize it into a clear, actionable recommendation.
• Hands‑on and proactive – you identify what needs to happen and make it happen, without waiting to be directed. You finish things.
• World‑class communication skills in German and English – written and verbal. You communicate concise, precise, and board‑ready – always with a smile ;-.
• High professional maturity – you are comfortable and credible in a room with the CEO and Board, and you operate with the discretion and composure that demands.
• Fluent with AI tools – you actively use tools like Claude, ChatGPT, or equivalent to accelerate analysis, manage parallel workstreams, and handle a high volume of action items.
• Entrepreneurial mindset – energized by ambiguity, speed, and the opportunity to build something meaningful, rather than looking for defined structure and predictable rhythms.
• MBA or equivalent degree from a best‑in‑class university with outstanding academic record.
