## Description

Paired is a global recruiting agency that pairs remote work with top-tier talent. We help individuals from around the world connect with great companies that are looking for their specific skill set. Our mission is to provide great jobs to talented people, no matter where they are located.

### About Our Clients

Our client(s) are fast-growing DTC ecommerce brands and also lifecycle marketing agencies across the U.S., ranging from high-growth subscription businesses to premium ecommerce brands in beauty, apparel, wellness, and digital products.

We’re building a network of exceptional Lifecycle & Retention Marketing Strategists who can own retention strategy, customer lifecycle optimization, and email/SMS performance across sophisticated consumer brands.
