We're looking for an up and coming Assistant Employee Benefits Operations Coordinator to join our growing team!
JOB SUMMARY
The Assistant EB Operations Coordinator supports the day-to-day operational engine of the Employee Benefits practice. This role is a hands-on driver behind carrier appointments, carrier access and logins, signature and legal routing, and the daily task flow that keeps Account Management and Sales teams moving without friction.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Carrier Appointments & Contracting
- Submit, track, and drive carrier appointment and contracting requests through written confirmation, researching unfamiliar carriers and agencies to identify requirements and contacts as needed
- Maintain the tracker daily so status is current without being asked; follow up on a set cadence and escalate stalls
- Gather and submit required documentation (licensing, W-9s, E&O, ACH, agency information) accurately and completely the first time, and confirm effective dates, writing numbers, and agency codes once received
Carrier Access, Logins & Portal Support
- Process carrier portal access and login requests for producers, account managers, and service staff, troubleshooting issues (locked accounts, permissions, expired credentials) until resolved
- Maintain accurate records of carrier portal access by user and office
- Support access setup and removal during onboarding/offboarding with the EB Operations Manager, IT, and HR
Legal & Signature Coordination
- Submit carrier agreements and appointment paperwork to Legal for review and signature with complete context and clear deadlines, tracking documents through to return of fully executed copies to the carrier
- Maintain organized, retrievable records of executed agreements and keep requesters informed on status without them having to ask
Daily Operations & Task Follow-Through
- Monitor shared mailboxes and the request queue; triage and respond within turnaround standards, owning tickets end to end and closing them only once resolved
- Support routine system/account setup and data entry as directed; maintain checklists and documentation for the processes this role runs, and flag recurring issues or process gaps to the EB Operations Manager with suggested fixes
Cross-Functional Partnership & Communication
- Partner with Account Management, Sales, Legal, Accounting, IT, and HR to move requests forward and remove operational roadblocks
- Communicate status proactively and in writing - what is done, pending, blocked, and needed
- Draft and publish operational updates in Workvivo (appointments, access changes, deadlines) in a clear, on-brand voice
- Support the EB Operations team on partnership onboarding and book rolls, and participate in special projects as assigned
Execution Expectations
- Own outcomes, not activity. A task is complete when the result is confirmed - not when the request is sent
- Follow up persistently and professionally. Most carrier and vendor items require multiple touches; build the cadence and hold it
- Escalate early, with a recommendation rather than only a problem
- Document as you go so any teammate can pick up an open item without a verbal handoff
- Ask questions when unsure; do not guess on items affecting carrier relationships, compensation, or compliance
- Manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment and communicate early when timelines are at risk
- Maintain accuracy, organization, and confidentiality across all work
Competencies
- To perform the job successfully, an individual should demonstrate the following competencies: Ownership, Persistence, Follow-Through, Resourcefulness, Organization, Attention to Detail, Written and Verbal Communication, Collaboration, Professionalism, Adaptability, Initiative, and Relationship Building.
