About this task
This Electric-vehicle maker in EV batteries (5,000+ employees) is looking for a director Chief of Staff for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Prepares and runs company planning sessions.
The work is too small to justify a hire and too important to leave to chance. It is an automotive business with long programme cycles and a strong paper trail.
The work is fully remote, but the company can only contract people who live in British Columbia, so this one is for residents there. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected.
What you deliver
- Prepare materials and facilitate a two-day planning offsite for leadership.
- A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer
- One round of edits after the company's review is included
- The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed
How the work runs
- Day 1: scope confirmed in writing, files shared
- Middle of the period: draft shared for early feedback
- Last day: final version and handover note
Duration: about 10 working days. Accepted when the output matches the agreed checklist and the sample check passes; the recruiter confirms by e-mail.
