Employee Benefits Coordinator

Arias Agencies was founded by Simon Arias in Pittsburgh, PA in 2008. Since then we've grown to 9 different offices in 5 states all within 8 years and we're opening 2 new offices in the Maryland region. We work hand in hand with unions across the Mid-Atlantic region to provide top notch benefits to union members. We provide valuable benefits to our members. All of our employees are unionized with the OPEIU and we provide great pay and bonus to our employees!

Arias Agencies is looking for it's newest team member! We're looking to fill our Employee Benefits Coordinator position here in our Columbia, MD office. Our company handles the benefits packages for several different unions located in Maryland, D.C., and Northern Virginia. The individual will be responsible for enrolling new union members into their benefits packages. Each package is different as we have both singles plans and family plans customized for each individual. Due to the programs we offer to our members if selected for employment the applicant must be willing to obtain a health and life insurance license. The Coordinator will answer any questions the union member may have about their benefits and will make any changes as necessary. This is a rewarding career and often times our clients invite us to birthday parties and other special occasions. You must have a passion for helping people and be willing to go above and beyond to service our clients as we have reevaluations and renew our contracts with each union every 24 months. We thrive in our environment because we have a family atmosphere and are willing to help each other out if needed. We are looking for a candidate with previous customer service skills that can handle interacting with blue collar individuals of different backgrounds. Some of our unions include truck drivers, teachers, electricians and plumbers so we often interact with a diverse group of people. Previous experience in a union is preferred but not required.

We are at a tremendous point of growth. Arias Agencies will also be opening offices in Owings Mills and in Prince George's County over the next few months. Therefor we are also looking for a candidate willing to enter our management track program to eventually be promoted into leadership and take on a managerial role in one of these new offices.
