Emil Juresic
Co-Founder, CAO Partners

Chairman of NGU Real Estate — Australia's fastest-growing real estate group with $4B+ in annual sales, 16 offices, and $500M+ in developed property. Founder of Juresic Family Office, Prestige Finance, and Level X Fitness and Recovery. Co-founder of One Life Club. Leads a team of 500+ people across his ventures. Emil is currently working with a CAO to roll out a stable, secure, and seamless enterprise agent fleet — and fully automate a majority of his daily operations.

"Within days of deploying AI agents, I realised processes that used to take weeks were now taking minutes. Our agents were catching mistakes, improving our systems, and serving every arm of my businesses with precision. Every day, another process becomes automated — not just saving time, but freeing my team to focus on the work that actually needs a human. We are rebuilding the way business is done, with AI scaffolded into every layer. We are preparing for war. And you should be too."
Simon Beard
Co-Founder, CAO Partners

Founder of Culture Kings — built from a market stall on the Gold Coast to a $600M exit and IPO on the New York Stock Exchange. 100% bootstrapped. No debt, no investors, no outside capital. Co-founder of One Life Club, Creator Army, and beard.com. Simon runs AI agents across eight businesses, managing $500K+ per week in ad spend, scoring every sales call, and operating 24/7 from a Mac on his desk. He has been running Facebook ads since 2012 and was the second merchant on Afterpay — a pattern of moving first on technology that compounds. Simon started CAO Partners because after restructuring his own businesses around AI agents, he saw the same need in every company he advises: the single most important hire is the person who builds the machine.

"If your business has people working on computers, you need to restructure now. We're in a fundamental shift. For the first time, one person can sit at the terminal level of a computer and control end-to-end operations — keyboard, mouse, every workflow — by deploying an agent workforce that multiplies output across every function simultaneously. We've never seen a productivity leak like this. The Chief Agent Officer is the most important hire I've ever seen. It's the lead domino. Get this one right and the whole business accelerates."

What is a Chief Agent Officer?

A Chief Agent Officer (CAO) is a dedicated AI infrastructure architect placed inside your organisation to rebuild it from first principles, AI-first. They sit outside your org chart, report directly to the CEO or Chairman, and replace collapsed roles with intelligent agent systems. One person. 100x the output. CAO Partners is Australia's specialist recruitment firm for hiring Chief Agent Officers.

01

AI-First Architecture

Designs and deploys AI agent systems across every department: operations, sales, finance, support, and beyond.

02

Immediate Impact

Starts delivering results within weeks, not quarters. Rebuilds workflows while the business keeps moving.

03

Off the Org Chart

Reports directly to the CEO or Chairman, not the CTO. This is a strategic infrastructure role, not a tech support function.

04

Ongoing Knowledge Transfer

Trains your team, documents the systems, and ensures your organisation owns what's built, not just the output.

Three steps.
Weeks, not months.

We move fast. From first conversation to an embedded CAO, here is how it works.

01

We Scope Your Needs

We meet with your leadership team, map your current operations, and define exactly what your CAO needs to build. No generic briefs. No wasted time. Every engagement starts with a clear picture of where AI creates the most leverage in your business.

02

We Match a Vetted CAO

We search our talent network and screen rigorously — technical capability, operational judgment, and communication skills all assessed. You only meet candidates who are genuinely qualified. We brief every CAO on your specific business before introductions are made.

03

They Embed and Build

Your CAO joins your organisation, reports directly to your CEO or Chairman, and gets to work. Within six weeks you will see measurable impact. The systems they build belong to your business. The knowledge transfers with them.

The role is new.
The talent exists.
