EarnIn Brings On Tech Industry Veteran to Lead B2B Team

The on-demand pay provider expands B2B unit with General Manager position

EarnIn, a pioneer in on-demand pay, announced the company’s latest appointment of Penelope Talbot-Kelly as its General Manager of B2B sales and solutions. Talbot-Kelly will lead the B2B team in partner acquisition, client management, and partnerships across the country. Her team will focus on supporting employers by addressing the issue of employee financial stress by offering financial wellness solutions.

Just last year, a survey highlighted that 78% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, and another survey found that financially stressed employees spend 3+ hours a week dealing with personal finances at work. This loss in productivity impacts both employees and employers, leading to an overwhelming need for financial health benefits like on-demand pay to sustain healthy financial habits.

“Financial anxiety and uncertainty is the leading cause of stress among employees today, and there is an incredible need for tools and resources to manage these pressures. To stay ahead in a competitive labor market, employers need to address employee financial stress, starting with products and solutions that they actually want,” said Talbot-Kelly. “EarnIn is focused on giving employees access to their pay as they earn it, along with a suite of services to help them build and maintain healthier financial behaviors. I’m thrilled to be joining the EarnIn team and help employers understand the benefits and importance of building financial momentum for their employees.”
