Marketing Specialist

Clara is the fastest-growing company in Latin America. We've built the leading solution for companies to make and manage all their payments. We already help over 20,000 large and growing businesses operate with agility and financial clarity through locally issued corporate cards, bill pay, financing, and a powerful B2B platform built for scale.

Clara is backed by some of the most successful investors in the world, including top regional VCs like monashees, Kaszek, and Canary, and leading global funds like Notable Capital, Coatue, DST Global Partners, ICONIQ Growth, General Catalyst, Citi Ventures, SV Angel, Citius, Endeavor Catalyst, and Goldman Sachs - in addition to dozens of angel investors and local family offices. 

We're building the financial infrastructure that powers high-performing organizations across the region. We invite you to join us if you want to be part of a fast-paced environment that will accelerate your career and support you to do some of the best work of your life alongside a passionate and committed team distributed across the Americas.

We're looking for a Marketing Specialist with a strong focus on event marketing and PR to help grow Clara's brand presence and build relationships with strategic audiences across Brazil and LATAM. You'll own the end‑to‑end execution of high‑impact activations—from intimate client gatherings to large‑scale conferences—designed to support business growth and elevate Clara's positioning in the market.

You'll be part of the Marketing team and collaborate closely with Sales, Partnerships, and Brand to ensure every event and PR initiative is aligned with our go‑to‑market strategy.

Your core responsibilities will include:

• Leading strategy, logistics, and execution of in‑person and virtual events with operational excellence.
  
  
• Building and maintaining relationships with key media and PR contacts to secure high‑impact placements.
  
  
• Being available to travel and provide on‑site support for events across Brazil and LATAM.
  
  
• Managing budgets and timelines, tracking performance, and reporting on ROI.
  
  
• Using event management platforms, and integrating with Hubspot to streamline execution.
  
  
• Developing and sustaining a reliable network of vendors and service providers.
  
  
• Ensuring flawless coordination across multiple workstreams, with meticulous attention to detail.
  
  
• Partnering with the content and social teams to amplify event and PR visibility via LinkedIn, Instagram, and other owned channels.
  
  
• Supporting the broader marketing roadmap with data‑driven insights and operational discipline.
  
  

We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

• Experience using professional‑grade event tools and managing event budgets and KPIs.

• Ability to drive timelines independently and thrive in fast‑paced environments.
  
  
• Working proficiency in English and Portuguese.

• Familiarity with Metabase or similar tools to analyze event and PR performance.

If you're ready for growth, ownership, and impact — apply now and help us redefine B2B finance in Latin America.

Claridians in a hybrid mode split their time between working from the office, talking to or visiting customers, or working from home. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for each individual and team.

We don't enforce a minimum number of days for most roles, but you're expected to spend time at the office organically, and be at the office most days during your ramp-up or when required by your leader.
