Health & Welfare Consultant
About The Position
Optimatum Solutions is seeking a Health & Welfare Consultant who thrives in an entrepreneurial environment and is eager to make a tangible impact. This role offers a unique opportunity for individuals who have previously worked within highly matrixed organizations and step into a dynamic, growing company where your contributions directly shape outcomes. As a Health & Welfare Consultant, you’ll bring deep expertise in HR and employer-sponsored Health & Welfare and Retirement benefit programs, plans, vendors, operations, and systems. You’ll collaborate closely with our Client Services Team to define and execute innovative strategies that create measurable value across HR and benefits. Unlike larger organizations where ownership can feel diluted, here you’ll have end-to-end visibility, significant autonomy, and the chance to influence both client success and the trajectory of our business. If you’re ready to leverage your experience in a setting where agility, creativity, and impact matter—and where your work will be seen and felt—this is the role for you.
