      <Title>Senior Benefits Consultant</Title>
      <Description><![CDATA[<p>Benefits are the promise underneath the paycheck. It doesn&#39;t make headlines, but it&#39;s what people think about when life actually happens , when a baby arrives, when a diagnosis comes, when someone finally retires. Great benefits are nearly invisible: plans chosen without confusion, forms filed without friction, questions answered by someone who actually knows the answer.</p>
<p>At Mercury, we believe that experience should feel less like navigating bureaucracy and more like talking to a brilliant friend who understands your needs. Our customers put it better than we can: &quot;I&#39;m so happy I never have to touch HR software again.&quot; And: &quot;10x better than our former stack.&quot; That&#39;s not just great software. That&#39;s great service, woven into the product itself.</p>
<p>We have a generational opportunity to reinvent how companies are operated. Central handles payroll, benefits, HR, compliance, government filings, and more , so founders can focus on the things that actually matter: curing brain cancer, making institutions more efficient, reducing our carbon footprint. As a Benefits Broker at Central, you&#39;ll be the human layer behind an extraordinary product , and a licensed broker who can actually close the deal. The software is powerful. You make it feel like magic.</p>
<p><strong>Key Responsibilities:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Guide customers through designing their benefits packages , helping them pick the right plans for their teams and their stage</li>
<li>Own the end-to-end enrollment process: filling out and submitting insurance forms accurately and on time</li>
<li>Keep our systems current with the right health insurance information so nothing downstream breaks</li>
<li>Communicate proactively with customers to resolve issues before they become problems</li>
<li>Build and refine the internal processes that ensure no enrollment ever gets missed</li>
<li>Solve hard, ambiguous benefits problems , the ones that fall between carriers, platforms, and regulations</li>
<li>Manage the client lifecycle at renewal, helping them choose options and running open enrollment at renewal</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Requirements:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>An active Life &amp; Health broker license</li>
<li>Experience selling or administering small group benefits across multiple states, with a focus on SMBs and startups</li>
<li>Exceptional detail orientation to help you build resilient systems and processes</li>
<li>Deep customer empathy to default to what&#39;s actually best for the customer, not what&#39;s easiest for you</li>
<li>Clear, direct communication and explain a complex benefits decision to a first-time founder in plain English</li>
<li>Be in the top 5% of your peers, and the people who&#39;ve worked with you would agree</li>
</ul>
