Interviewing for full time only

 

Headquartered in Charleston, SC, Benefitfocus.com, Inc. is proud to be the fastest growing technology company in the state.  Our mission is to provide the best technology, software and services to the healthcare insurance industry worldwide.  Due to substantial growth and market expansion, Benefitfocus looking for the following positions:

Account Consultant:  This position has daily interaction with HR Administrators that are utilizing our software for their on-line benefits enrollment and ongoing benefits administration.  You can expect to manage ten large, or “premier,” client accounts or up to 200 small to mid-size accounts.  Each client, or group, can range in size from 1 member to as many as 10,000+ members.  We have recently added thousands of small groups in Florida, Nebraska and North Carolina and are expanding our market to include California and the West Coast.


Our Account Consultants are responsible for navigating each account’s HR Administrator through our software application processes.  You will research problems and reporting issues to insurance carriers and report all escalations to the appropriate manager.  An average of 30 calls a day can be expected.  The HR Administrator "consults" with our Account Consultants in regards to changes or updates with members’ health coverage, addition or cancellation of coverage as well as the renewal of policies.  Good problem solving and follow-up skills are needed to ensure our clients’ needs are met.  Exceptional listening skills will be needed so that you understand exactly what the HR Administrator is asking of you.  You must be able to prioritize tasks and keep a continuous relationship with insurance carriers, clients and internal resources.

Our Account Consultants offer a professional image, conveying knowledge, integrity and a commitment to customer service.  Every Benefitfocus associate is a valued resource.  We constantly reward associates and provide a fun, engaging culture.  At Benefitfocus, each associate has the opportunity to participate in continuing education activities while staying current with the latest information available.  As a company, we invest in each person to ensure we maintain the best resources.

 

Qualifications:

 

Group Services Representative:  This position will provide excellent customer service to Benefitfocus clients by utilizing in-depth knowledge of our company’s products and procedures.  You will work with as many as 200 clients each ranging in size of 1 to 50 members.  The Group Services Representative will be responsible for maintaining a beneficial relationship between the client, or group, and Benefitfocus.  Following up via phone and email in a timely manner and answering questions professionally will be key to being a top performer in this role.  You will handle calls (as many as 50 a day) from HR Administrators from our small groups.  Questions from the Administrators will be related to new members' benefits information, policy renewals, updates or changes to insurance coverage and "how to" navigational questions related to our enrollment and database applications. 

The Group Services Representative needs to offer a professional image, which conveys knowledge and integrity to the client.  Excellent customer service skills and a strong customer orientation are very important.  Computer proficiency in a Windows based environment will be necessary for navigating our clients through our software programs.  Previous account management and customer service experience would be an asset.  You will work with other key individuals such as our Account Consultants, Data Analysts and our Import Services team to troubleshoot enrollment errors, service issues and better answer member questions. 

As a Group Services Representative, you must be able to: 

 

Qualifications:

Data Import Specialist:  On the Import Services team, you can expect to work with as many as ten insurance carriers and clients, or groups, ranging in size from one member to as many as 2,000 members.  The insurance carrier sends each Import Specialist their members’ data (SS#, address, dependents, coverage start date, medical, life and dental coverage needed, etc.) and the Data Import Analyst then “loads” this information into our software applications using both Oracle and proprietary software.  

This individual will use analytical and problem solving skills to find and eliminate errors during and after each data load.  Common errors may include: the number of dependents are incorrect, the coverage level selected does not match total number of dependents, the coverage effective date does not coincide with their start date, etc.  Through the use of Oracle based tools and pre-written SQL queries, our Import team can search for errors and notify our Implementation Consultants of these errors before the client, or group, goes “live” in our software application.  

Qualifications:

 

Junior Software Engineer:  As a software engineer at Benefitfocus, you will play a key role in the development of new technology products in web based health insurance and benefits enrollment.  You must be experienced with formal software development lifecycles, processes, and be able to assist in their implementation.  To be considered for this position, you will need a minimum of two years experience in Java application development.  Weblogic experience would be a plus.  You must be highly competent at deploying and troubleshooting large software systems.  As a member of our development group, you will work with a dynamic team of business and engineering professionals, in an environment where your input and efforts are valued and rewarded.

Qualifications:

 

Junior Data Analyst:  As a Data Analyst, you will be responsible for ensuring the integrity and synchronization of the data we provide to our clients.  Data will come in the form of the policyholder’s name, date of birth, coverage effective date, SS#, home address, etc.  Because our data is continually being updated by our clients, the task of ensuring data integrity and synchronization is critical to the success of our company. 

As a Data Analyst, you will be responsible for handling changes in data made by the HR Administrator and researching issues during data transmissions.  Updates to a policyholder’s information or healthcare coverage are first entered by the HR Administrator (client).  Updates are continuously being made 24/7.  This information is then sent to us for analysis before being submitted to the insurance carrier.  The Data Analyst will run reports to ensure the information received by the client is without errors.  If errors are caught, the Analyst may manually make changes or research why such errors are present (whether it be a mistake internally or one made by the HR Administrator).  Once the data has been scanned for discrepancies using Oracle based tools, the Analyst prepares a “data extraction.”  The “extraction” sends the “clean” healthcare data to the insurance carrier. 

As a Data Analyst, you will have to be very detail orientated to ensure errors are caught before the data is “extracted” or sent to the insurance carrier.  On going communication with HR Administrators will also be required to make sure the appropriate information was received properly.  Benefitfocus.com, Inc. offers challenging, exciting opportunities to goal-oriented individuals who enjoy problem solving and research related tasks.  You will work with other key individuals in the organization, such as our Client Services, Engineering and Operations teams, allowing you to demonstrate your greatest talents. 

Qualifications:

 

Benefits Administrator:  As a Benefits Administrator, you will be responsible for working with our clients and their employees by explaining benefits options available to them.  You may be responsible for: explaining the differences between medical plans (HMO's, PPO's, high deductible plans), differences between saving accounts (FSA's versus HSA's), options with 401K and other retirement plans, life insurance policies, short and long term disability options and mental health programs.  The ideal candidate will be able to successfully guide and consult employees in making the best healthcare choices for their well-being, provide an understanding and compassion for their needs and offer complete confidentiality. 

The Benefits Administrator will be responsible for working with our clients via phone.  Professional phone presence and the ability to "connect" with our clients' employees over the phone will be of the utmost importance in this role.  The ideal candidate will be able to navigate with ease through our software programs and be able to network with both internal and external sources for additional information. 

Benefitfocus.com, Inc. offers challenging and exciting opportunities to goal-oriented individuals looking for an opportunity to demonstrate their talents.  As a Benefits Administrator, you can expect to work with the latest technology, together with a dynamic team of business professionals in an environment where your input and efforts will be valued and rewarded.
