Job Description:

DescriptionWe're Consumers Credit Union (CCU) and our mission is to empower our members to live better lives.
We're a financial institution just like a bank, except not exactly. Banks have customers, but because we're a not-for-profit, member-owned credit union, we have members. And because we're not a bank, we don't drive up profits just because shareholders demand it. Instead, we focus on driving up member happiness through low loan rates, high deposit rates and low- or no-fee products and services. We focus on things like transparency, simplicity, helpfulness, integrity, positivity and inclusion - and we always put our members first.
In fact, we serve over 200,000 members and have over $3 billion in assets. We employ nearly 500 people in the Chicago area and have 16 branch locations in Illinois. We offer access to a national shared branching network, and more than 80,000 surcharge-free ATMs worldwide. And although we've been around for over 90 years, we're just getting started!
So what about you? Are you looking for a new opportunity where you can use your talents to make a positive difference in peoples' lives? A friendly place that values what you bring to the table?
