Senior Product Manager, Benefits
This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Product Manager, Benefits based in United Kingdom.
This is a senior, high-autonomy product role focused on building the infrastructure that powers benefits administration globally.
You’ll own a complex portfolio spanning third-party integrations, payroll connectivity, benefits data, compliance, and provider management.
In the near term, you’ll lead high-impact migrations and integrations where data accuracy directly affects employee pay and customer outcomes.
Over time, you’ll shape a unified, provider-agnostic benefits platform that works consistently across multiple employment models and countries.
You’ll collaborate closely with Engineering, Payroll Operations, Finance, Partnerships, and Legal/Compliance in a highly distributed, asynchronous environment.
The role combines strategic product leadership with hands-on technical execution, including prototyping and problem-solving with modern AI coding tools.
It’s an opportunity to influence foundational infrastructure while helping define how benefits technology evolves for both human and API-driven users.
Accountabilities
- Define and own the benefits infrastructure strategy, balancing near-term integration priorities with the long-term vision of a unified, provider-agnostic benefits administration platform.
- Drive the roadmap for integrations with benefits carriers, third-party administrators, benefits platforms, brokers, and customers’ HR systems, determining where to deepen integrations, consolidate solutions, or sunset partnerships.
- Lead complex, cross-functional initiatives from discovery and technical design through testing, migration, launch, and ongoing optimization.
- Oversee initiatives such as migrating benefit costs to unified payroll infrastructure, implementing retirement plan administration, enabling bring-your-own-broker capabilities, and ensuring benefits data from external HR systems flows accurately into payroll.
- Establish robust testing, reconciliation, validation, and go-live processes in partnership with Engineering and operational teams.
- Develop consistent benefits experiences across Employer of Record, global payroll, PEO, and HRIS-connected environments, ensuring core concepts such as eligibility, enrollment, providers, and costs work consistently regardless of data source.
- Build proactive compliance and data-integrity capabilities that identify discrepancies before they affect employees, payroll, or customers.
- Act as the escalation point for benefits-related data incidents, leading root-cause analysis, remediation, and long-term fixes rather than temporary workarounds.
- Develop systemic tools for discrepancy reporting, reconciliation, unmapped-cost detection, and other controls that improve the reliability of benefits infrastructure.
- Own the lifecycle of benefits partnerships, from sourcing and evaluation through integration, performance management, and eventual offboarding.
- Partner with commercial and partnership teams on vendor relationships while serving as a product and technical subject-matter expert with external providers.
- Enable Sales and Implementation teams with reliable benefits-processing workflows, using AI-powered tools and code-connected agents where appropriate to verify provider availability, system behavior, and expected outcomes.
- Communicate product strategy, priorities, and process changes clearly across Product, Engineering, Payroll Operations, Finance, Partnerships, and Legal/Compliance.
- Champion transparent, asynchronous collaboration and maintain alignment across globally distributed teams.
