Executive Assistant

About Clair

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.

About the Role

We're looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to support our CEO. This is not a traditional calendar-management role.

Our CEO is deeply involved in founder-led strategic partnerships, fundraising conversations, and company leadership. Success in this role requires someone who can operate as the CEO's force multiplier-keeping priorities moving, creating leverage, and ensuring critical conversations don't fall through the cracks.

You'll spend a significant portion of your time supporting new partnerships and existing partnership efforts by coordinating meetings, managing follow-ups, tracking outreach, and helping maintain momentum across a wide range of external stakeholders. You'll need to be comfortable applying pressure when necessary, tracking down information, and ensuring the right people are moving with urgency.

If you're highly organized, relentlessly detail-oriented, proactive, and energized by helping a company grow, we'd love to meet you.

• Help maintain CRM hygiene and sales process discipline
• Proactively chase down information and remove bottlenecks that could slow deals

Operational Excellence

• Create systems and processes that help the CEO operate more efficiently
• Maintain organization across key initiatives and strategic projects
• Anticipate needs before they become urgent
• Help prepare for board meetings, leadership meetings, offsites, and customer events
• Act as a true partner and life-optimizer, managing everything from complex business calendars to occasional personal scheduling and logistics so the Executive can operate at peak productivity

What We're Looking For

• 4+ years of Executive Assistant experience supporting senior executives
• Previous experience supporting a Chief Revenue Officer, Head of Sales, Founder-led sales organization, or similarly customer-facing executive is required
• Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Comfortable operating in a fast-paced startup environment with shifting priorities
• Highly proactive and able to work independently
• Ability to influence without authority and keep people accountable to deadlines
• Strong judgment and discretion when handling sensitive information
• Experience coordinating complex calendars and external stakeholder meetings
• Willingness to occasionally travel and support company events as needed

You'll Thrive Here If You...

• Love being the person who knows what's happening before everyone else does
• Get satisfaction from turning chaos into order
• Aren't afraid to send the follow-up, ask the hard question, or push for an answer
• Take pride in being incredibly organized
• Enjoy working alongside ambitious people building something meaningful
• View every problem as solvable with the right amount of persistence and creativity
