- Prepare and submit required pension filings and ensure all compliance obligations are met within deadlines
- Review and validate vendor invoices and reporting for accuracy
- Assist with system implementations, upgrades,



and testing from a benefits and pension perspective
- Develop communications, training materials, and presentations related to Total Rewards programs
- Collaborate closely with the broader HR team to support ongoing initiatives and projects

- Solid analytical skills and attention to detail, particularly when handling sensitive information
- Effective communicator with the ability to influence and build relationships across all levels
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities
