@amandapascoe
Global benefits leader driving compliant, data‑driven programs and employee well‑being.
What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned global benefits professional with progressive leadership experience designing and operating benefits, leave, and wellness programs across the US, Canada, EMEA and Asia. I combine compliance expertise with strategic vendor management to ensure programs scale with a growing, distributed workforce.
I have led firmwide initiatives that increased participation—achieving a 25% participation rate in a Behavioral Health benefit and 50% engagement in a fitness and wellness platform—and managed complex operations including 401(k) administration, 5500 audit completion, and non‑discrimination testing.
I partner closely with HRBPs, Legal, Finance and external brokers to deliver communication strategies, data‑driven improvements, and seamless enrollment and leave processes, always prioritizing employee experience, cost efficiency and governance.
