Chief of Staff to Founder (Canada)

Lanart is hiring a Chief of Staff to the founder to turn priorities into completed, measurable projects. This is an execution and judgment role across growth, operations, finance, recruiting, suppliers and technology. Lanart is a Canadian manufacturer with a 35-year history in textiles and flooring, a growing bedding business, and 68% year-over-year revenue growth.

What you'll own

• Turn ambiguous priorities into clear plans, owners, deadlines, decisions and results.

• Lead cross-functional projects such as new product costing, sourcing, operational improvements, financial analysis and recruiting.

• Coordinate urgent issues, follow through with stakeholders and close loops independently.

• Prepare concise briefs, models, dashboards and action records that help the founder and teams make decisions.

• Work with technical specialists and vendors when a project needs software, data or automation.

What we're looking for

• Proven ownership of ambiguous, multi-team projects with measurable outcomes.

• Strong quantitative judgment, advanced spreadsheets, clear writing, prioritization, discretion and stakeholder communication.

• Initiative, reliability and the ability to execute hands-on.

• Canadian work authorization and ability to work in person five days per week in Montréal or Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu.

• Strong AI, software, data or automation skills are a major plus, not a requirement. Coding is not required.

Relocation benefit

We reimburse up to C$10,000 of pre-approved, receipt-backed moving and short-term accommodation expenses for a hire relocating to work in person in Montréal or Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu.
