Background

Across Africa, millions of learners rely on education systems that must work—every single day. Behind every great product, every successful rollout, every scaling breakthrough, there is operational excellence holding it all together. That’s where you come in.

Zeraki is at a pivotal stage of growth, and we’re looking for a Chief of Staff to partner closely with our CEO and leadership team to drive strategy, execution, and scale across Africa. This is not a support role. This is a front-row seat to building one of Africa’s most impactful EdTech companies.

This role is for someone who wants to:

• Operate at the center of strategy and execution
• Build systems that enable teams to move faster and smarter
• Solve complex, cross-functional challenges
• Translate vision into measurable results
• Help scale an organization changing how education works in Africa

You’ll thrive here if you:

• Take extreme ownership
• Bring structure to ambiguity
• Think in systems, not silos
• Love fast-paced, high-impact environments
• Want your work to directly shape a continent’s future

Responsibilities

• Partner with the CEO on strategic priorities
• Drive execution across key initiatives
• Strengthen operational rhythms and accountability
• Enable leaders and teams to perform at their best
• Help steer Zeraki through its next phase of growth

If you’re excited by real responsibility, real impact, and real growth—this role is for you.
