Role Overview The Chief Operating Officer will partner with the CEO to build Caruso’s operational foundation as we expand worldwide. This executive role joins the leadership team alongside the CTO, CFO, and future C-level hires. The COO will help shape the company’s growth and bring AI to an industry still dominated by spreadsheets and manual work. The scope of this position will grow as Caruso does. In the first phase, the COO leads a small operations team, oversees People & Culture, and works closely with services and customer teams, often taking on cross-functional projects that lack a clear owner. Over 18 to 24 months, the role will evolve into a global COO position with broader responsibilities. Main Responsibilities Partner with the CEO: Act as the operational arm of the CEO. Manage business review cycles, OKRs, and leadership offsites. Step in on cross-functional issues that require executive attention.

Support Services and Customer Teams: Collaborate with leaders in Fund Admin Services and Client Experience. Remove obstacles, improve efficiency, and help integrate AI solutions into daily work. Establish Global Operating Rhythm: Build reporting structures, dashboards, and business review routines to support predictable operations in all regions where Caruso operates. Grow and Manage Teams: Lead and expand operational areas including People & Culture, Legal, Risk and Governance, Business Operations, and AI Enablement as Caruso scales.
