Pebl is seeking a strategic Global Benefits Design Specialist to lead the design, negotiation, and product integration of its global benefits portfolio. The role is based in Lisbon and reports into the People & HR function.
You will own the complete benefits strategy across 185+ countries, managing a global renewal calendar of 70+ plans annually. Key responsibilities include sourcing and contracting with vendors, negotiating commercial terms with brokers, and partnering with product teams to integrate benefits offerings into Pebl's Global Work Platform. You will drive a strategic shift from zero-margin allowance-based models to high-margin, revenue-generating insurance plans, with a goal of achieving 67% company-wide attach rates.
Your impact will span multiple dimensions: designing and standardizing local and global benefit plans into tiered Core, Standard, and Premium packages; managing vendor and broker relationships at scale; optimizing the benefits P&L by identifying opportunities to convert allowance spend into margin-bearing plans; collaborating with R&D and product teams to improve platform visibility and enable Day-1 enrollment; and leading cross-functional engagement to align benefits strategy with executive leadership, go-to-market goals, and sales enablement.
You will need 6+ years of benefits delivery experience, with demonstrated expertise in benefits management, vendor negotiation, financial acumen around benefit costs and P&L optimization, and the ability to work across departments. Strong project management, data-driven decision-making, and communication skills are essential. Knowledge of benefits administration, compliance, HR, and payroll practices is expected. You should be comfortable operating in a fast-paced, high-energy environment, managing multiple concurrent initiatives, and maintaining strict confidentiality.
