Senior Recruiter

Cooler Screens was founded on the core idea that consumers deserve a far better experience than what is available today in brick-and-mortar retail. We call this concept Consumer Experience (“CX”) and it guides all that we do.  We have begun the CX journey by bringing what consumers love about shopping on-line to the frozen and refrigerated food aisle.

Cooler Screens is re-imagining the business of brick-and-mortar retail for retailers and brands.  We are transforming retail cooler surfaces into IoT enabled screens that deliver new marketing opportunities and smart merchandising for the ultimate shopper experience. Cooler Screens is building the world’s first and largest in-store digital media and edge computing platform at the retail point-of-sale.

Cooler Screens is powered by proprietary innovation and a global network of industry-leading partners.  Global technology, CPG, and retail leaders have partnered with Cooler Screens to be part of this important and rapidly growing industry initiative.   We are backed and led by some of the most prominent Silicon Valley and Chicago leaders, advisers, and investors.  

As a member of the People team, you will be responsible for sourcing, assessing, selecting and partnering with the business to hire diverse talent at all levels. These include roles in areas spanning across Technology, Sales, Operations, Data, and Finance.  You should be able to find talent that no one else can, and you are able to do this through the relationships you have built and creative and innovative sourcing techniques.  

 This is both a strategic and hands-on role that provides full cycle recruiting partnership.
