We’re looking to recruit up to three new team members to join our exciting startup in the key areas of growing and supporting members. These roles are definitely not for everyone. This blog post will give you the confidence that either, indeed this isn't for me OR this is exactly what I've been waiting for.

Clarity ® is the complete global business advisory solution that combines the power of technology and systems to enable our members (accountants, bookkeepers and advisers) to create, package, price and deliver added-value business advisory services to their small business clients. By doing this, we help them increase revenue by c50%, net profits by c125%, engage their team, free up time and create freedom - helping their clients to do the same along the way.

Our purpose We are passionate about small business and we know that accountants, bookkeepers and advisers are best placed professionals to empower entrepreneurs to change the world. We want to give every small business owner clarity; clarity so that they can create a better business for themselves, a better life for their family and team and ultimately contribute to a better world .

Our vision We envisage a future where Clarity changes the way business is done globally, forever - putting power back in the hands of small business!

By harnessing cutting-edge technology (AI, machine learning and blockchain), we make it easier for small businesses to thrive, by bridging the gap between their financial data and the practical business insights & resources required to build a profitable and sustainable business.

We want the Clarity platform to become the one-stop shop for business owners worldwide; a platform which connects business owners with empowered advisers, and where, in addition to the core features we are building, they can access a whole range of business services, powering their growth and success.

Our core values * Creativity and innovation

* Collaboration

* Act with integrity

* Take ownership

* Make things better

Giving back We dream of a world where everyone’s basic needs are met; pure water, nutritious food, safe shelter, clean air and practical clothing. And we want people to love the work they do, whether a business owner or team member, and feel a sense of fulfilment that having a purposeful role provides.

That’s why we have embedded giving into everything that we do. As an organisation, we support the UN Sustainable Development Goals through our partnership with the groundbreaking giving organisation B1G1 . We are also carbon negative (not just carbon neutral!).

And every time somebody does business with us, one of three things happens; either we protect a girl from trafficking by keeping her safe in school, we plant a tree to provide nutritious fruit or vegetables for a rural community or we provide training for entrepreneurs to help get them out of poverty.

The types of people we’re looking for We’ve had an amazing time so far. For the next stage of our journey, we’re looking for people who are incredibly excited to join the ride and become part of the Clarity family.

Most or all of the following will describe/appeal to you: passionate, resilient, fun, hardworking, resourceful, full of ideas, don’t mind getting stuck in, gets stuff done, loves talking to people, able to close deals, likes flexible (but sometimes long) hours, focussed, driven, likes a challenge, think on your feet, team player, looking after people, finding solutions, working smart, creating systems, travel, educating/training.

What you’re definitely not: is someone who thinks inside the box, is into office politics, who hates meeting new people, who likes to be micro-managed and work fixed standard hours, whose glass is always half-empty, who hates events and socialising, who doesn't like travelling to new countries or exploring and who looks for excuses and finds ways why things won’t work and why it’s never your job.

The roles we are looking to fill Quite simply, at our stage in the business lifecycle, we don’t believe in job descriptions and our job roles are not clearly defined.

We’re a startup and so you’ve got to be prepared to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty. If you’re looking for a clearly defined role with prescriptive tasks - then Clarity is definitely not for you (well not yet anyway)!

We’re looking to fill three roles in two broad, but key areas:

member success (growing members - and both their and our revenue); and member support (keeping members). You will be working closely with our member firms (accountants, bookkeepers and advisers) and will be passionate about helping them achieve success - not just with implementing and scaling Clarity, but with their firms and clients too! You will help them understand what a repeatable/scalable business advisory offering is, how our solution works (and adapts to their particular needs), help them create plans and actions and above all, hold them accountable.

There will inevitably be a certain overlap between these key areas and you will also need to liaise with our sales team. So you will need to be comfortable with that and be able to communicate clearly with your fellow team and our members.

Experience We’re solving a multi-dimensional puzzle and so we’re happy to chat with a broad range of people from different backgrounds, experience and levels. Either you will have experience of similar roles in a tech company (particularly the accounting app ecosystem) or will have worked in an accounting firm and are looking to make the transition to support your fellow professionals deliver business advisory (helping themselves and their clients).

Remuneration and benefits To suit the type of people who love working at startups, our remuneration packages are flexible between outstanding basic, bonus (relevant to targets under your influence and control) and share options. We believe in win-win partnerships and you should too.

Next step Get in touch with Aynsley Damery, through whatever contacts or on whatever platform is best for you and in a way that makes you stand out. If you’re lacking ideas, then just email aynsley.damery@clarity-hq.com
