  • Carrier and Market Assessment : Evaluate carrier pricing dynamics and market competitiveness, providing insights that support vendor selection, contract negotiations, and program optimization.
  • Plan Design Consulting : Model plan design alternatives, assess impact on cost and employee experience, and guide strategic recommendations to clients.
  • Team Leadership : Provide direction, coaching, and feedback to junior colleagues, supporting their technical and professional development.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration : Partner with Global Delivery Centers, Client Service Teams, actuaries, and clinicians to ensure seamless project execution and superior results.
  • Client Relationship Management : Build strong relationships with employer and vendor contacts, serving as a trusted advisor to drive engagement and loyalty.
  • Thought Leadership : Contribute to intellectual capital development, identify opportunities for innovation, and support new business, expansion, and cross-selling initiatives.

  • Strategic thinker with a solutions-oriented mindset who can synthesize insights and translate them into clear, actionable client recommendations.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to confidently present complex financial concepts to executives.
  • Demonstrated success in expanding client relationships and identifying opportunities for additional services.
