About The Role

The Sei Development Foundation is seeking a highly strategic and operationally adept Strategy Lead to be a direct partner to our executive director. The Strategy Lead is the ED/COO's strategic right hand - a force multiplier who keeps the organization running smoothly, ensures priorities are aligned across teams, and handles the connective tissue work that falls between functions. This is an execution and coordination role, acting as a trusted partner and core team member with broad visibility into strategic priorities, cross-functional execution, and organizational alignment. This role owns process, rhythm, and follow-through, while other leaders own their domains.

This position is based in New York City and requires a strong on-site presence to work closely with the executive team.

Responsibilities

Strategic Execution & ED Support

Own the ED's agenda: prepare briefings, analyses, pre-read materials, and follow-up actions for key meetings

Serve as a proxy for the ED in internal meetings and cross-functional discussions when appropriate

Track and drive completion of ED-level priorities and execute on strategic objectives across the organization

Act as a multiplier for executive leadership by translating high-level strategy into clear action plans and measurable outcomes

Draft internal and external communications on behalf of the ED

Operational Rigor & Cross-Functional Alignment

Design and maintain operating rhythms, including planning cycles, project trackers, executive updates, and follow-ups that drive accountability

Lead cross-functional initiatives from concept to execution, ensuring coordination across departments and stakeholders

Identify organizational gaps, process inefficiencies, and risks, then implement solutions proactively

Ensure decisions made in leadership discussions are documented, communicated, and followed through

Organizational Influence & Communication

Serve as a central hub for information flow and alignment across teams, ensuring decisions and priorities are communicated clearly and consistently

Cultivate strong relationships with internal stakeholders to foster a collaborative and high-performance culture

Special Projects

Own special projects and time-sensitive initiatives that don't have a clear functional home

Lead high-impact, high-visibility special projects, operating with autonomy, discretion, and judgment

People & Culture

Support onboarding of senior hires

Help maintain team culture and communication norms across a distributed, async-first team

What We're Looking For

Professional experience in consulting, operations, strategy, or similar roles in a high growth startup environment

Experience working closely with C-suite executives, founders, or senior leadership in high-growth environments

Excellent verbal and written communication; clear, direct, and thoughtful

Comfortable operating in ambiguity with minimal supervision

Proven ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment and deliver under pressure

Familiarity with crypto/web3 ecosystems preferred but not required

Experience working across time zones with globally distributed teams

Extremely organized, process-oriented, and bias toward action

Positive, proactive, low-ego collaborator who thrives in startup and scaling environments

Bonus Points

Experience in crypto, blockchain, or Web3 ecosystems

Background in investment banking or similar detail-focused analytical environments
