  • Partner closely with HR, payroll, and finance to maintain data integrity and efficient benefit administration and any budgeting requirements.
  • Maintain accurate documentation of benefit processes, communications, and vendor performance metrics.
  • Ensure compliance with applicable North American benefit regulations, policies, and reporting requirements.
