Clara Is Certified as a Great Place to Work

Mexico City, February 2, 2022 - Clara, the Latin American startup offering a corporate spend management solution for companies in the region, was certified as a Great Place to Work by the consultancy of the same name, Great Place to Work, which concluded that the company promotes policies and practices that improve the quality of life of its employees.

The survey, which focuses particularly on employees' perception of the level of trust in the workplace and their relationships with leadership teams and other colleagues, highlighted that the company obtained a rating above its market.

“Since we founded Clara, human capital has been the axis of our organization. We were born with the idea of being a house of talent where the whole team has the opportunity to develop professionally, through benefits and incentives that at the same time promote their well-being and personal development,” said Gerry Giacomán Colyer, CEO and co-founder of the company.

Juan Domínguez, Chief People Officer at Clara, highlighted that: “building a space where work culture is focused on employees results in a direct impact on our customers, which becomes an important differentiator. One of the most relevant trends in Human Resources is the human being as the central axis. That is why today, in terms of benefits, we offer one of the highest employee value propositions, even above the startup market in Latin America. At Clara, we will continue working on additional benefits that promote the well-being and satisfaction of each of the people who work with us, even making them extensive to their families and environment.”

This announcement adds to the list of milestones the company has achieved less than a year after its launch. In September 2021, the Latin American company headquartered in Mexico was also recognized by LinkedIn as one of the 10 most promising startups to work for in Mexico, and it recently announced its official arrival in Brazil after raising US$70 million, becoming one of the fastest Latin American unicorns in the region.
