Coordination with third-party leave administrators, HR, Benefits, Payroll, and other stakeholders The ideal candidate should be able to explain how they have personally managed complex leave cases from initial request through resolution.
Please prioritize candidates with:
Hands-on Leave Administration experience and full case ownership
Experience managing FMLA and complex leave scenarios
High-volume leave case management experience
Strong employee-facing communication skills handling sensitive/confidential situations
HRIS experience (Oracle preferred; comparable HR systems acceptable)
Please do not prioritize candidates whose experience is primarily:
Benefits enrollment/open enrollment administration
Data entry or transaction processing
Paperwork/document processing without ownership of leave cases.
