  • Data-Driven Mindset: Proven success in metrics-based roles where data accuracy and hitting KPIs are central to customer success.
  • Account management: Strong background in high-volume book of business under tight deadlines and seasonal peaks.
  • Communication & Collaboration: Excellent customer communication skills with experience managing professional interactions with external company partners (401(k) providers) as well as customers.
  • Adaptability: A skilled problem-solver who is comfortable navigating ambiguity and can pivot quickly in a dynamic operational setting.
