JSG is seeking an experienced Benefits Professional for a temporary, onsite role with our client in the greater Thousand Oaks area. We are seeking an experienced interim Benefits professional to provide interim support (est 4-6 months). This individual will assess current Health & Welfare and Retirement benefit programs in the U.S. and Canada, identify operational issues, prioritize areas of risk, and independently drive resolution of outstanding items. The ideal candidate is a hands-on problem solver who can quickly evaluate situations, work with limited direction, and ensure continuity of benefits operations while helping stabilize and improve processes.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Identify and resolve outstanding benefits administration issues, eligibility discrepancies, enrollment errors, vendor concerns, payroll integration issues, and employee escalations.
  • Evaluate current benefits processes, controls, and workflows to identify compliance, operational, and employee experience risks.
  • Partner with Payroll, HR, Finance, and external vendors/brokers to investigate issues, determine root causes, and implement corrective actions.
  • Review ongoing benefits projects, audits, regulatory requirements, and vendor deliverables to ensure critical items are completed and risks are mitigated.
  • Reconcile benefits administration and payroll processes to ensure accurate deductions, employer contributions, and vendor billing.
  • Develop recommendations to strengthen processes, documentation, controls, and operational efficiency.
  • Document findings, maintain issue trackers, and provide regular updates on priorities, risks, and progress toward resolution.

Ideal Experience:

  • 7+ years of progressive benefits administration experience, preferably supporting both U.S. and Canadian employee populations.
  • Strong knowledge of Health & Welfare plans, retirement plans (401(k) and RRSP), benefits vendor management, and payroll-benefits integrations.
  • Experience conducting benefits audits, troubleshooting operational issues, and leading process improvement initiatives.
  • Ability to work independently, quickly assess ambiguous situations, and drive issues to resolution with minimal supervision.
  • Strong project management, analytical, and stakeholder management skills.
