  • Develop, conduct, and participate in presentations and training sessions to educate employees about new and changing benefits programs.
  • Respond to employee inquiries regarding plan provisions, enrollments, status changes, and other general benefits-related questions.
  • Manage Benefits renewal projects

Program Management & Process Improvement:

  • Coordinate the planning and execution of the annual open enrollment process, wellness programs, and other global benefits initiatives.
  • Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders to document, streamline, and continuously improve benefits-related processes.
  • Analyze benefits usage and costs, providing recommendations for plan improvements and design changes that balance employee needs and operational goals.

Special Projects & Strategic Support:

  • Lead or support special projects as needed, ensuring smooth execution and alignment with broader benefits strategies and organizational objectives.
