Conduent is seeking a Benefits Support Specialist to provide professional support to participants with questions related to their benefits and plan provisions.

In this fully remote position, you will assist participants primarily through inbound telephone calls, with some outbound calls as needed. You will help participants understand their plan provisions, answer questions, complete transactions, explain applicable forms, and provide guidance throughout the process.

This role supports a major client and requires the ability to learn and follow established procedures while providing accurate, helpful, and professional service. The position also offers relatively minimal call volume compared with traditional high-volume call center environments.

If you enjoy helping people, communicating clearly, solving problems, and working independently, this role provides an opportunity to develop valuable experience in benefits administration and participant support.

• Complete transactions related to participant inquiries with limited supervision.
• Research participant questions and provide accurate information while following established procedures.
• Explain appropriate participant forms and provide guidance on how to complete them.
• Complete callbacks in a timely manner and elevate issues as appropriate.
• Document participant interactions by creating detailed and accurate notes in the case management system.
• Meet established timeliness and accuracy standards.
• Follow applicable call center metrics, procedures, and guidelines.
• Adapt to client-specific processes and requirements when supporting participants.
• Maintain confidentiality and protect sensitive participant and client information.
• Follow all applicable company, client, privacy, and security policies and standards.
• Perform other duties as assigned.

• Strong verbal and written communication skills.
• Excellent listening and interpersonal skills.
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy.
• Ability to explain information clearly and professionally.
• Ability to understand participant questions and provide appropriate guidance.
• Basic computer skills and the ability to learn new systems and processes.
• Strong organizational and time-management skills.
• Ability to work independently in a remote environment.
• Ability to follow detailed procedures and client-specific guidelines.
• Ability to remain professional, patient, and solution-focused when assisting participants who may be frustrated or irritated.
• Ability to meet established quality, accuracy, productivity, and timeliness expectations.
• Reliable attendance and punctuality.

• Experience with defined benefit pension plans.
• Previous benefits administration experience.
• Previous customer service or call center experience.
• Experience supporting retirement, pension, or employee benefit programs.
