What Makes You a Great Fit
We are seeking an experienced Benefits Administrator to lead the administration, compliance, and continuous improvement of our U.S. employee benefits programs, including 401(k) retirement plans, health and welfare benefits, leave programs, and related vendor partnerships. This role is ideal for someone who understands the operational and compliance complexity of benefits in an Employer of Record (EOR), PEO, staffing, or other multi-entity environment, where accuracy, scalability, and service quality are critical.
The Benefits Administrator will own day-to-day benefits administration, support strategic plan design, ensure regulatory compliance, and partner closely with Payroll, HR Operations, Legal, Finance, and external brokers, carriers, TPAs, and recordkeepers. The right candidate is detail-oriented, highly organized, comfortable working in a fast-paced environment, and confident managing benefits across a distributed, multi-state workforce.
How You’ll Make An Impact:
401(k) and Retirement Plan Administration
•
Manage end-to-end administration of the company’s 401(k) plan(s), including eligibility, enrollments, deferral changes, employer contributions, loans, hardship processes, distributions, notices, and participant support.
•
Partner with recordkeepers, TPAs, Payroll, and Finance to ensure accurate and timely payroll deductions, contribution funding, and reconciliation.

Oversee annual retirement plan activities, including nondiscrimination testing, census review, audit support, Form 5500 coordination, plan notices, and correction of operational issues.

Monitor plan operations for compliance with ERISA, IRS, and Department of Labor requirements.

Support plan design changes, vendor transitions, and retirement education initiatives to improve employee participation and experience.
US Benefits Administration
•
Administer U.S. health and welfare programs, including medical, dental, vision, life, disability, FSA/HSA, commuter, COBRA, and leave-related benefits.
•
Own benefits onboarding, life event changes, terminations, employee communications, and escalated issue resolution.
•
Manage open enrollment planning and execution, including system setup, testing, employee education, vendor coordination, and post-enrollment reconciliation.
•
Review carrier invoices and eligibility files to ensure accurate billing and timely resolution of discrepancies.
•
Maintain benefits content in HRIS, knowledge bases, employee guides, and internal process documentation.
EOR and Compliance Operations
•
Ensure benefits processes align with the needs of an EOR business model, including coordination across internal teams supporting U.S. employees and client populations.
•
Help manage benefits compliance across a multi-state U.S. workforce, including ACA tracking, required notices, plan document administration, and eligibility rules.
•
Partner with Legal and Compliance teams on benefits-related policies, employee communications, and risk management.
•
Support audits, internal controls, and documentation for benefits and retirement plan administration.
•
Identify gaps, streamline processes, and implement scalable controls that improve service delivery and reduce compliance risk.
Vendor and Stakeholder Management
•
Serve as the primary day-to-day contact for brokers, carriers, retirement plan vendors, COBRA administrators, leave vendors, and other external partners.
•
Track vendor performance against SLAs, escalate issues, and lead regular operational reviews.
•
Collaborate with Payroll, HRIS, People Ops, Finance, and Customer/Client teams to ensure smooth execution of benefits programs.

Provide clear, practical guidance to employees, managers, and internal stakeholders on benefits policies and programs.
