- Vendor & integration management: Coordinate vendor files and operational touchpoints (enrollment feeds, payroll deduction changes, reconciliation items); track issues through to closure and document outcomes.
- Compliance & governance support: Assist with benefits compliance activities (e.g., required notices, documentation, nondiscrimination testing support, and audit requests) and help maintain defensible process controls and records.
- Payroll and finance partnership: Partner with Payroll on deductions, limits, and retroactive adjustments; assist with monthly/quarterly reconciliations and issue research.
- Employee communications & service: Draft and maintain benefits communications (guides, FAQs, intranet content), respond to escalated inquiries, and deliver clear, consistent guidance with discretion.
- Open enrollment and annual cycle support: Support planning, testing, employee communications, and execution for open enrollment and year-end activities.
- Documentation and continuous improvement: Maintain process documentation, SOPs, and job aids; identify opportunities to streamline workflows and enhance employee experience while maintaining controls.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education and relevant experience.
- 5+ years of progressive benefits administration experience supporting health and retirement programs.
- Working knowledge of U.S. benefits administration practices (eligibility, enrollment events, COBRA/ACA concepts, retirement plan operations) and strong attention to data integrity and controls.
- Experience partnering with vendors, carriers, and internal stakeholders to resolve complex benefit issues.
- Proficiency with HRIS systems (Workday preferred) and strong Excel skills (e.g., lookups, pivots, data validation).
- Ability to handle confidential information with discretion and sound judgment.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain benefits concepts clearly to diverse audiences.
- CEBS or other benefits-related certification preferred.
- Experience with retirement plan vendor management (e.g., recordkeepers, advisors) and operational governance support preferred.
- Experience supporting benefits integrations, testing, or implementations (e.g., Workday benefits configuration, vendor feeds) preferred.
- Prior experience in a law firm or other professional services environment preferred.
- Project management skills and comfort working in a fast-paced, high-service setting.
Other: Occasional travel may be required for vendor meetings, benefits fairs, or team meetings.
