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 Legal Associate to join Clara’s Legal team in Colombia. You’ll play a key role in ensuring Clara’s local operations remain compliant, well-documented, and legally sound. Working closely with our Legal Lead and global teams, you'll manage operational legal work that supports our business goals while reducing risks.
Your responsibilities will include:
Drafting, reviewing, and organizing contracts, NDAs, and corporate documentation
Providing legal support across internal teams — especially Sales, Finance, and Operations
Supporting Clara’s compliance with Colombian regulations, especially related to data protection and AML frameworks
Managing communications and deadlines with regulatory bodies, including the Superintendencia Financiera de Colombia, with support from senior counsel
Assisting in responses to administrative requests, legal notifications, and pre-litigation matters
Maintaining up-to-date legal files and records across tools like Google Drive and Slack
Collaborating with the global Legal team to align on standards and policies across LatAm
This is a high-ownership role ideal for someone early in their legal career looking to grow inside a mission-driven fintech company.
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.
Law degree and license to practice in Colombia
1–3 years of legal experience in corporate, commercial, or financial law
Working proficiency in Spanish and English

At Clara, you’ll have the autonomy, speed, and support to make meaningful impact — not just on your team, but on how organizations are run across Latin America.

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.
