What Stands Out Among Top Talent
- Active, currently valid UKG-issued certification in UKG Pro Benefits Administration (Benefits Prime), which is a firm requirement for this project
- Hands-on configuration experience in UKG Pro Benefits Prime on live implementation or optimization work, not classroom exposure alone
- Direct experience with PlanSource integration and EDI or carrier file feeds for benefits enrollment, including error handling and discrepancy resolution

- Ability to work independently on a defined project scope, document configuration decisions clearly, and communicate status directly with client stakeholders
