Director, Talent Acquisition

(Austin, TX)

About the role:

Atmosphere is in hyper-growth mode and is not about to stop. While our recruiters source Austin’s top talent across every department, the Director of Talent Acquisition will lead the team by creating scalable recruitment strategies for technical, financial, and sales hires. The Director of Talent Acquisition will report to the VP of People & Culture, and will develop and evaluate new sourcing strategies, recruitment tools and partnerships, candidate pipeline experiences, and recruitment team performance metrics. You will work closely with Atmosphere’s department leaders to forecast hiring needs as we double the size of the company in 2022, and create roadmaps to ensure recruitment timelines are met. Working alongside the marketing and creative teams, the Director of Talent Acquisition will establish employer branding strategies to introduce Atmosphere to prospective candidates across the US and beyond.

About Atmosphere:

Atmosphere was incubated under the Chive Media Group and spun out in 2019. Since then, Atmosphere has tapped into something no other cable company has ever attempted. It's single-handedly defined the streaming TV-for-business category. By designing a streaming service focused on retail businesses, Atmosphere is meeting the needs of two underserved markets: businesses looking for free, audio-optional TV programming, and advertisers that have never been able to effectively buy media to reach an out-of-home audience on TV screens. With millions of TV customers cutting their live tv subscriptions, both cable and streaming, Atmosphere allows TV advertisers to reach an unreachable audience. Recently Atmosphere raised a $25M Series B and is growing its team, distribution network and product value like crazy!
