Our team is powered by a relentless focus on serving our customers and delivering flexible benefits plans offered by Canada Life.

Are you ready to take your career to the next level? This is your chance to join a close-knit team of highly professional, customer-focused individuals who are passionate about delivering exceptional service. In this role, you’ll work directly with clients to seamlessly administer their workplace benefit plans and play a critical role in maintaining long-term satisfaction.

You’ll have the opportunity to shape the client experience, support implementations, define and test system enhancements, streamline processes, and serve as a trusted resource for outsourced administration and supported systems.

What You Will Do

• Act as the primary liaison between outsourced clients and Canada Life teams, managing employee benefits plans and annual flexible plan re-enrolment activities.
• Establish administrative processes for outsourced and non-outsourced clients.
• Participate in new client implementations and business process improvements, including the analysis and set up of the client’s benefit plan.
• Gather client requirements for payroll, HRIS electronic feeds, and reporting.

• Critical thinking and problem-solving abilities.
• Attention to detail with strong time management and organizational skills.
• Ability to multi-task and prioritize competing deadlines.

The cost of submitting these checks will be covered by Canada Life.

The base salary for this position is between $57,100 - $85,600 annually.
