- You will manage all Client plans and policy amendments and notify applicable departments and/or insurance carriers of any changes using departmental guidelines.
- On a quarterly basis you will perform financial plan analyses and prepare the required reports for the client under the direction of the appropriate Consultant and/or Account Executive.
- You will assist with the preparation of new business quotes and provides benefit costs and assists in implementation of changes for existing business.
- You will assist in the preparation and/or review of benefit plan communiqués, and other reports as requested by the Account Executive or Consultant.
