MacGray Consulting is a premier consultancy specializing in guiding consumer packaged goods (CPG) startups through their growth journey. With a proven track record of scaling multiple CPG startups, as well as working with Private Equities, and larger brands, MacGray brings invaluable insights drawn from both corporate and entrepreneurial environments. We are dedicated to helping emerging CPG brands navigate the complexities of growth by leveraging our unique perspective to address common challenges and avoid critical pitfalls. Whether launching a new brand or scaling an existing one, MacGray provides the expertise and support needed to achieve long-term success in today’s competitive CPG landscape.

Job Description

Much like the founders we support, this is a high-impact, cross-functional role ideal for someone eager to learn the full spectrum of how CPG startups operate and scale. Reporting directly to the Senior Partner/COO, you will play a key role in supporting MacGray’s client base. This is not just a support role — it's a vital position that helps ensure executive leadership can focus on big-picture strategy by keeping daily operations running smoothly.

You’ll have the opportunity to gain exposure to multiple business functions and learn the ins and outs of startup operations. You’ll be client-facing, execution-oriented, and encouraged to take initiative.  We're looking for a highly motivated individual who thrives in a dynamic environment, is ready to wear many hats, and is excited by the energy (and sometimes, chaos) of startup culture. The ideal candidate is motivated, curious, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing ambiguity in a fast-moving startup environment. You should be resourceful, detail-oriented, and flexible, with a strong ability to problem-solve and pivot quickly as priorities shift.

We prefer this position to be hybrid with in-person work at our Erie, CO office at least twice/week, however we will consider remote candidates.
