You will act as the primary operational link between our workforce and external entities, balancing highly meticulous data auditing with high-touch employee care.

  Serve as the front-line tier-2 subject matter expert for complex employee inquiries, systematically driving high-sensitivity benefits disputes and claims escalations to resolution with brokers, carriers, and internal partners.

• Vendor & Carrier Coordination:

  Oversee routine operational relationships with benefit brokers, insurers, and third-party administrators to ensure seamless service delivery, adherence to SLAs, and timely resolution of platform errors.

• Financial & Data Reconciliation:

  Execute regular audits of eligibility files, payroll deductions, carrier invoices, and vendor billing sheets. Proactively investigate structural data discrepancies and coordinate swift corrective adjustments.

• Open Enrollment Execution:

  Direct the end-to-end operational readiness of annual open enrollment cycles, leading system configuration testing, drafting localized communications, providing employee instructional guidance, and running post-enrollment data validation loops.

• System Integrity & Workflows:

  Partner closely with HRIS, payroll, and technical integration teams to manage automated file feeds, validate system updates, resolve configuration bugs, and deploy practical workflow improvements.

• Regulatory Compliance & Audits:

  Coordinate compliance tracking activities, ensuring the timely distribution of statutory notices, managing data collection for benefits audits, and archiving required documentation alongside legal and brokerage teams.

• Knowledge Architecture & Documentation:

  Own and optimize standard operating procedures (SOPs), internal FAQs, and employee-facing knowledge-base portals to ensure administrative consistency and transparent, self-serve communications.

•

Pragmatic Root-Cause Analysis:

Analyze recurring operational bottlenecks and system interface drops to recommend data-led, scalable modifications that increase process accuracy and employee satisfaction metrics.

  3+ years of dedicated experience in U.S. benefits administration, benefits operations, or closely aligned HR operations environments.

• Vendor & Lifecycle Execution:

  Proven track record of managing day-to-day carrier workflows, processing complex billing reconciliations, and supporting full-cycle open enrollment sprints.

  Deep, hands-on familiarity with enterprise HRIS platforms (e.g., Workday, ADP) and advanced Excel capabilities (VLOOKUPs, pivot tables, data auditing strings) with strict attention to data hygiene.

Practical working knowledge of U.S. benefits regulations (ERISA, COBRA, HIPAA, ACA) and a demonstrated baseline of handling highly sensitive, confidential employee information with sound judgment.

Preferred Qualifications:
