Legora is an AI-native legal workspace trusted by 2,100+ customers across 80+ countries, including major law firms like Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, and Linklaters. The company has scaled to $200M+ ARR with teams across Europe, North America, and APAC.
You will serve as the analytical and administrative backbone of Legora's benefits function, reporting to the Senior Manager, Global Benefits. This is a hands-on role for someone early in their benefits career who wants real ownership and the opportunity to help build processes, not just run them.
Key responsibilities include:
- Administer day-to-day benefits programs (medical, dental, vision, life, disability, FSA/HSA, voluntary benefits) covering enrollments, qualifying life events, and terminations
- Serve as primary point of contact for employee benefits questions, resolving issues with accuracy and care
- Support open enrollment end-to-end, from system configuration and testing through employee communications
- Administer leave of absence programs (FMLA, statutory leave, disability, parental leave) with compliance and empathy
- Reconcile benefits billing and carrier invoices monthly, audit for discrepancies, and report cost trends
- Maintain benefits data accuracy in HRIS systems through routine audits and vendor coordination
- Build and maintain SOPs, benefits guides, and employee communications
- Support compliance across ERISA, ACA, COBRA, HIPAA, FMLA, and international statutory requirements as programs expand
- Partner with Payroll, Finance, and People Business Partners on cross-functional benefits questions
- Support regional benefits administration outside the US as the function scales
The role is based in Legora's Union Square office in New York, designed for ambitious builders with company-provided lunch daily. You'll collaborate with teams across Europe, APAC, and North America.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 2-4+ years of experience in benefits administration or related HR/analytical function
- Advanced Excel/Google Sheets skills (pivot tables, VLOOKUP, formulas)
- Working knowledge of US benefits compliance (ERISA, ACA, COBRA, HIPAA, FMLA)
- Experience with HRIS platforms and benefits administration systems, including system testing and configuration support
- Strong attention to detail and follow-through, especially when reconciling data across systems and vendors
- Clear, empathetic communicator, comfortable helping employees through sensitive or complex benefits questions
- Comfort operating in a fast-paced, still-forming environment where processes are still being built
- Experience with modern HRIS platforms (e.g., HiBob or similar) and using data to guide plan decisions
- Knowledge of Human Resources Outsourcing (HRO) providers is a plus
- Exposure to international or multi-country benefits programs is a plus
