Sydney, Australia Lyka Full time

**Who are we?**

Lyka is an Australian founded pet wellness company that’s shaking up an outdated industry and paving the way for happier, healthier pets. Despite medical advancements, animal lifespans are on the decline. Today, the average pet only reaches 37% of their full potential lifespan and statistics have shown us that many suffer from dental disease, cancer, and obesity. Simply put, the status quo is not enough.

As humans, we’ve experienced firsthand the positive impact fresh wholefoods can have on our health and wellbeing, and we believe our furry friends deserve the same. We're on a mission to do just that, starting with nutritionally balanced, wholefood meals delivered direct to doors around Australia. As the world’s most sustainable pet wellness company, we’re putting pets and our planet first - one bowl at a time.

Today, we are proud to share we’ve served over 50 million meals to puppers and their parents across Australia, and this is just the beginning. Our vision is to create multiple nutritional products, adding disease prevention meals and supplements, and expand into new markets.

Currently, we have a team of 250+ pet-obsessed people, and we're continuing to grow (yes, looking at you). These carefully selected people are dedicated to building the next generation of technology and products to help empower pet parents to take control over their pet’s wellbeing.

To date, we have raised over $60M in funding from venture capital investors and pet industry insiders, who believe in our mission and ability to drive change in a stagnant industry, providing nutrition that nourishes puppers from the inside out.

Are you ready to shake things up and give pets the life they deserve? Come join our pack

**Our Mission**

The time we share with our pets is being cut short. Despite medical advancements, they’re getting sicker earlier. They’re dying prematurely. The industry has it backwards - prioritising treating symptoms instead of addressing the root cause. That’s where we come in.

At Lyka, we take a preventative, holistic and personalised approach to pet care. We look at the full picture, factoring in the diet, lifestyle and environment of each individual animal.

We don’t stop at symptoms, instead we dig for the root cause. We create nutrition plans unique to each pet, because it’s not just about living longer, but living well too.

Our mission is to increase the lifespan of dogs and cats.

**The Role**

We’re looking for a Chief of Staff to join us in our mission to change the pet wellness game, and help our furry friends live out their best lives. Sitting within our Strategy team, this role will work collaboratively and cross-functionally with Lyka’s executive team and play a pivotal part in shaping the future vision for Lyka, and the roadmap to get there.

You will support the CEO and executive team in achieving our strategic objectives. You'll oversee our company wide strategic planning, manage special projects, and ensure effective communication across departments and within the executive team.

**What you’ll do**:
**_ Strategic roadmap and planning_**
- Work closely with the VP of Strategy and leadership team to shape Lyka’s vision and long-term strategy, covering new products, channels, markets, and capabilities, as well as the operational investment required to meet these strategic demands. Help to define the rollout of the Strategic Roadmap process across the organisation.
- Partner with the executive team to operationalise company visions and goals to medium-to-long term forecasts, and short term actions to ensure these are met.
- Lead annual and quarterly planning process alongside the executive team, ensuring alignment between budgets and forecast to operationalise our strategy.
- Ad hoc special projects support for strategy team as capacity allows.

**_Executive team and board operations_**
- Drive the agenda of the Lyka executive team (weekly meetings and monthly offsites), ensuring they are focused on the most critical topics and decisions.
- Review and work with the executives to revise key materials and updates to the broader executive team, full company, and board.
- Support the CEO and COO in coordinating skip-level catch ups and providing other ad hoc support.
- Support the preparation of board materials (including board resolutions).

**_Company-wide governance support_**
- Drive the agenda, coordination and preparation of our company-wide all hands meeting and other company wide comms.
- Set and ensure best practices around internal communications.
- Support improvement and maintenance of company-wide resources and documentation.

**Requirements**:

- 3+ years' professional experience, preferably with top-tier strategy or management consulting co, or within a fast growth start up, with a proven track record of driving strategic initiatives and delivering results.
- High commercial and strategic acumen, with a strong attention to detail.
