The CEO Office
The CEO Office works with senior leaders across Checkout.com on high-priority strategic and operational problems. The team turns important questions into clear decisions, coordinated execution and measurable business outcomes.
This is a manager-level individual-contributor role for a hands-on operator. You will own defined, high-priority, cross-functional initiatives end to end—from framing problems and aligning stakeholders to implementing solutions and delivering measurable outcomes.
Working closely with the Head of the CEO Office, you will combine structured problem-solving with hands-on execution. You will translate priorities into coordinated action, strengthen how teams operate and drive initiatives through to impact.
This is neither a traditional PMO nor a presentation-led strategy role, and it is not an executive-level position. Success requires sound judgement, analytical rigour, clear communication, operational follow-through and the ability to influence effectively without formal authority.
