About the role

We're building the AI operating system for vets. Our AI agent Emma already runs client communication for clinics in 7 countries, including the largest veterinary groups in the world. With our pre-seed just closed, we're expanding into new products and new markets at the same time. As Chief of Staff, you'll own our expansion into new countries end to end.
About Vetpal
There are more pets than ever, and fewer vets to care for them. Clinics are short on staff, vets spend half their day on admin, and their suicide rate is six times higher than average. We're building the AI operating system for vets. From the first phone call to the invoice, we give vets their time back, with the mission to bring pets, pet owners and their vets closer together.
The role
You work directly with the three founders on whatever matters most for Vetpal at the time. Right now, that's international expansion, and you own it end to end. This is not an assistant role. It's the closest you'll get to building a company without founding one.
What you'll work on
Own our expansion into new countries: pick the markets, build the partnerships, hire country leads and get the first clinics live
Turn our founder-led sales into a repeatable go-to-market engine
Build the systems, processes and reporting a fast-growing company needs and doesn't have yet
Run hiring end to end for key roles
Prepare board meetings, investor updates and our next fundraise
Who thrives here
You've worked at a Seed to Series A startup and like ambiguity more than structure
You're analytical, high agency and communicate clearly, in English and German
You can switch between big-picture strategy and getting the details done in the same hour
Top-tier consulting or VC is a plus, but startup experience comes first
You want to build your own company one day, and want to learn how it's really done
What we offer
Competitive salary and equity
Direct access to the founders and full visibility into every decision
Real ownership over a part of the company from day one
A small, talent-dense team in Berlin that works with speed and intensity
