At Caribou, we care about giving people financial freedom so they can focus on what’s most important to them. Today, less than two percent of Americans refinance their auto loans despite drastic increases in the cost of new and used cars. We see huge potential to help folks reduce their monthly auto expenses, as well as increase the predictability of those expenses over time. We do this by building technology to pair customers with community banks and credit unions, and ushering them through the process quickly. On average, our drivers save $115/month on their car loans while protecting their investment long term.
Caribou is led by leaders from the technology, automotive, and finance industries. We’re proud to be backed by a great team of investors, including QED Investors, Goldman Sachs, Moderne Ventures, Accomplice, Link Ventures, Motley Fool Ventures and others.
Caribou is looking for a Chief of Staff (COS) to join our team and partner closely with our CEO and senior leadership to lead internal communications and keep multiple internal and external projects moving forward simultaneously. The COS will report to the CEO and will be accountable for maximizing the impact, efficiency and time of Caribou’s Leadership Team’s cross functional work. This key role will be an integral member of the senior leadership team (S-team), acting as a strategic thought partner, integrator, communicator, and confidant. You will play a crucial part in setting and implementing strategies, anticipating problems, and ensuring the alignment of our vision with day-to-day operations. This is an ideal growth opportunity for someone with aspirations for senior operating roles.
This role is based out of Chicago, IL. While we don’t have an office here yet, you should plan to spend time in person with our CEO, who is located in the area. This role also requires about 25% travel, including attendance at monthly in-person team meetings, often held in Denver or DC.
You, like us, are driven to achieve your goals. At Caribou, we have three core values: Give a Damn, Velocity, and Make the Assist. We’re motivated, we race towards our goals, and we help each other along the way.
You are a curious and action-oriented problem solver with the ability to build trust and partnership at all levels of an organization. You demonstrate the highest levels of ownership and have a proven ability to take ideas and turn them into results. You have a strong strategic mindset and operational expertise, with the ability to see what pressures the leader faces and find ways to lessen them. You recognize the importance of key relationships and are adept at strengthening them.
If you’re ambitious, strategic, and ready to make a significant impact, we want to hear from you. Apply today to join our team and help us drive growth and provide financial freedom to our customers.
