At a typical investment bank:
President/CEO --> CTO (may also hold corp title of Managing Director, maybe "Senior Managing Director") --> Managing Director --> Director --> VP --> (possibly) AVP --> Peon.
When I last left the IB world, there were many VPs and a decent number of Directors that were individual contributors.
Future: President -> Titanium VP -> Platinum VP -> etc.
It's funny how "titanium" is somehow such a big thing with marketing names these days, such as with car trim models. It's a pretty neat metal but it isn't particularly valuable. Steel and aluminum are pretty neat metals too, in different ways, but no one uses those in marketing this way.

How does that even look on an org chart?
Normal: President -> Vice-President
Common: President -> Executive VP -> VP
Guessing: President -> Platinum VP -> Exec VP -> VP (It is related to airlines, so just borrowing their classes)

I find it amusing that someone would be closer to the CEO through six degrees of separation than through the levels of management.

You forgot Senior VP.
But, it's more like President > C?O > some other C?O position > Senior VP > VP > etc.
In the airline industry, it might be
President -> Platinum VP -> Gold VP -> Silver VP -> Bronze VP
