Chief of Staff (m/f/d)

Job description

About Planet A: Planet A is a leading early-stage tech VC backing European founders tackling the world’s greatest systemic challenges. We take a scientific approach to identify breakthrough solutions the world can’t afford to ignore across energy, resource mastery, neo-manufacturing, and critical infrastructure.

We already have dedicated teams driving brand, communications, and ecosystem engagement. This role sits at the operating core of the fund: ensuring that strategy turns into execution, priorities stay aligned, and a small, ambitious team performs at its best every day. If you are execution-focused, exacting about quality, great at connecting people, and know how to create clarity amid competing priorities, this role is for you. This role is based in Berlin.
