Our team spans Real Estate, Workplace Experience, Employee Voice, Employee Engagement, and Social Impact. We translate Clio's mission, values, and operating principles into intentional programming that is measurable and tied to business outcomes.
Responsibilities

- Design and deliver recurring connection programming including Summer Socials and seasonal moments throughout the year
- Lead wellness and wellbeing initiatives that support a healthy, high-performing culture
- Own the intentional-gathering strategy for Anchor Days under our Distributed by Design (DxD) model - the programming, purpose, and rhythms that build connection and collaboration worth showing up for
- Own the Remote Employee Experience : how distributed and remote Clions connect, belong, and thrive, including Remote Community Days
- Design and manage global recognition programs spanning peer recognition (Bonusly), milestones, anniversaries, and culture awards - ensuring they land consistently across all regions and entities
- Define success before you launch - name the metric for every program, then own outcomes in Peakon, participation data, and connection/belonging signals
- Lead and develop the Employee Engagement team (currently Mitch - Events & Experiences; Tasha - Recognition; Lorena - program coordination)
- Partner with Workplace Experience, the People Leadership Team, and senior stakeholders to integrate engagement best practices across the organization
- What you may have:
- Demonstrated experience designing and owning employee engagement, gathering, or culture programs - ideally in a distributed or global organization
- Experience as a player-coach: able to set strategy and stay hands-on in a lean team
- A measurement mindset - able to tie people programs to business outcomes and communicate impact to senior leaders
- Strong cross-functional instincts and judgment navigating ambiguity and competing stakeholder priorities
- Experience managing a team of program managers
- Genuine AI fluency - you actively use AI tools in your day-to-day work and can help your team do the same
- Serious bonus points if you have:
- Experience owning a large-scale all-company event (1,000+ employees)
- Familiarity with Peakon, Bonusly, or similar engagement/recognition platforms
- Experience building programming that scales across multiple offices, time zones, or post-acquisition entities
- Background in both in-person and remote/distributed employee experience
- This role is a backfill for an existing position. What you will find here:
- Compensation is one of the main components of Clio's Total Rewards Program. We have developed a series of programs and processes to ensure we are creating fair and competitive pay practices that form the foundation of our human and high-performing culture.
- Some highlights of our Total Rewards program include:
- Competitive, equitable salary with top-tier health benefits, dental, and vision insurance

- Flexible time off policy, with an encouraged 20 days off per year.
- $2000 annual counseling
Requirements
- You also bring genuine curiosity about AI and how it can make your work better. You don't need to be a technologist, but you're already experimenting - using AI tools to move faster, think more clearly, and free up space for the work that actually requires a human.
