Benefit Counselor - Employee Benefits Enroller

Company Overview

OneHealth is a fast growing company in the Health Insurance and Employee Benefits space. We expect a high level of initiative, performance, execution, and accountability from every member of our team. In return, we offer unmatched opportunities for growth, meaningful bonuses, career advancement, and the chance to help shape the future of a company with real momentum.

We are committed to constant improvement. Our mission is to deliver a best-in-class experience to our partners, brokers, and clients. Our core offering is a premium Major Medical Health Plan that uses the Cigna PPO Network. While we are a Private Health Plan at our core, our competitive edge comes from the technology, marketing, processes, and systems we have built that often exceed what even the largest carriers can offer.

We take pride in being a service first organization. We do not settle for average. In an industry where the bar is often low, we aim to raise it every day. OneHealth is a place where progress is constant and challenges are embraced. It is fast paced and full of opportunity, with fresh problems to solve, new wins to celebrate, and momentum that keeps growing. We are building a company with purpose, and we are building it together.

If you want a job with a paycheck, this is not the place. If you want a career where you can challenge yourself, where your effort is respected, your results are rewarded, and your potential is unlimited, we want to hear from you.
