Job Description

Are you an experienced Employee Benefits professional who enjoys being the strategic voice clients rely on—not just at renewal, but throughout the year?

We’re partnering with a leading national insurance and benefits organization seeking a Senior Benefits Consultant to manage and grow key client relationships. This is an opportunity for a seasoned consultant who can confidently advise executive-level stakeholders, develop sophisticated benefits strategies, and bring together the right resources to deliver an exceptional client experience.

What You’ll Do

In this role, you’ll serve as a strategic advisor and relationship leader for an established book of business. You’ll work closely with internal service teams, carrier partners, and clients to:

  • Lead benefit strategy, plan design, financial analysis, benchmarking, and renewals
  • Develop creative solutions for complex client challenges
  • Guide pre-renewal planning, RFPs, open enrollment strategy, and post-renewal analysis
  • Build trusted relationships with HR leaders and C-suite executives
  • Oversee overall service delivery and ensure client expectations are consistently met
  • Coordinate the onboarding and implementation of new clients
  • Identify opportunities to expand relationships through additional solutions and services
  • Develop and maintain strong carrier and vendor partnerships
  • Advise clients on market trends, funding alternatives, networks, and benefit plan options
  • Stay current on compliance requirements impacting employer-sponsored health and welfare plans
  • Partner with internal teams to keep client strategies, timelines, and deliverables moving forward

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who brings both strong technical Employee Benefits knowledge and the executive presence to serve as a true client advisor.

Ideal experience includes:

  • 7+ years of Employee Benefits consulting experience
  • Experience managing and retaining sophisticated client relationships
  • Strong knowledge of health, ancillary, and employer-sponsored benefit programs
  • Experience developing renewal and benefit strategies
  • Practical knowledge of the quoting and marketing process
  • Ability to communicate effectively with C-suite and senior-level stakeholders
  • Strong understanding of benefits compliance and the evolving healthcare landscape
  • Excellent communication, organization, and relationship-management skills
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and CRM/database platforms
  • Active Life & Health insurance license
  • Bachelor’s degree preferred

Why Consider It?

This is an opportunity to join a well-established, growing national organization with significant resources behind its consultants. You’ll have access to a broad range of solutions, technology, and subject-matter expertise while still having the ability to build meaningful, long-term relationships with your clients.

If you’re ready for a role where you can operate as a strategic consultant, influence client outcomes, and continue growing your career in Employee Benefits, we’d love to connect.
