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 Control Desk & Credit Associate to join our team in Mexico, helping us manage key credit operations that are essential to Clara’s financial health and customer trust. You’ll play a vital role in executing and improving processes related to account monitoring, limit adjustments, payment cycle management, and operational risk.
This role sits at the intersection of Risk, Credit, and Operations. You’ll need a high degree of rigor, sound judgment, and the ability to navigate both structured and fast-changing environments. Your contributions will directly impact the reliability and scalability of our platform as we continue to grow across Latin America.
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.

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.
