- Identify and communicate compliance issues, and bring any carrier or product limitations to the team's attention as they arise
- Manage benefit operations (transfer health insurance benefits through forms and carrier portals)
- Help to scale our growing health benefits operations and improve our processes - uncover issues and find innovative ways for us to tackle our work
Here’s what we're looking for:
- 0-1 years, with preference for backgrounds in healthcare, insurance carriers, or start-ups
