If you can send your friends money in seconds, why does it still take your employer two weeks to send your paycheck?
At Clair, we are on a mission to create financial freedom for America's workers by giving them a digital banking platform that allows them to get paid as soon as they clock out of work. But we're not just another digital bank or on-demand pay provider. We meet Americans at their place of work by embedding our products within the scheduling, workforce management, and payroll apps they already use every day.

Are you who we're looking for?
We are looking for a Director, Lifecycle Marketing who is ready to take the lead on building, executing, and optimizing lifecycle marketing strategies for all of Clair’s products.
